Oasis icon Liam Gallagher appeared to confirm that the band would return on the road for another tour next year. The English rock band returned to Wembley on Saturday (September 27) for the penultimate UK show of their mammoth 2025 reunion tour, which kicked off in July.

As fans dread the end of the concerts, the singer seemed to fill millions with hope and hinted they could return to the stage. Before closing the show with their 1996 hit, Champagne Supernova, Liam praised fans for making the comeback a success and told them there was more to come.

The 53-year-old announced: "I wanna thank you lot for keeping the faith and putting this band back on the f*****g map. Champagne Supernova. See you next year!" Liam's speech was met with cheers of excitement from the sold-out crowd. During the show, Oasis also paid tribute to late boxing legend Ricky Hatton, who died earlier this month, aged 46.

A photo of the athlete who also hails from Manchester appeared on the screens behind them as they performed Live Forever.

This marks the second tribute Oasis have paid, as earlier in the tour they also honoured late Liverpool footballer Diogo Jota, who tragically died in a car accident in Portugal.

Liam's announcement comes after reports that the band had been offered four huge shows at Knebworth House next year, to mark the 30th anniversary of their historic 1996 concerts.

It was also rumoured that there was a possible residency at the Etihad Stadium, home of their beloved Manchester City.

According to an insider via The Sun: "I could see all of this happening. There is so much on the table, but it's whether Noel and Liam want to do it."

However, those close to the band members suggested that the brothers would take a break after their current tour.

"They'll be having a well-earned holiday as soon as this tour finishes later this year," a source explained.

"As for 2026, they've seen the speculation, they've heard about the offers and they know what the fans want, but it's ultimately up for them to decide."

Before their upcoming tour dates were confirmed, it was revealed that Ticketmaster would be investigated after some Oasis fans saw the price of standard tickets rise to more than double the original price, from £148 to £355, as they waited in virtual queues on the American ticket distribution company last year.

Investigations by Trading Standards also uncovered evidence of tickets being sold for up to six times their original cost.

Ticketmaster did not tell fans waiting in lengthy queues that standing tickets were being sold at two different prices, which jumped as soon as the cheaper tickets sold out, a new deep-dive by the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) has revealed.

The government department also found that the online seller was flogging 'platinum tickets' at almost 2.5 times the price of their standard equivalent, without "sufficient information" that they offered no additional benefits to standard tickets in the same areas of the venue.
