Oasis Tease 2025 Asia Tour Dates With New Billboard Campaign
The Oasis reunion rolls on. Following the recent roll-out of tour dates being across the U.K. and Ireland, North America, South America and Australia, there is now hope on the horizon for Britpop fans in Asia.
On Tuesday night (Nov. 19), the band’s official Instagram account shared images of billboards that have popped up in Tokyo, Japan and Seoul, South Korea, which appear to be teasing a major announcement on Friday (Nov. 22). Check out images of the billboards below.

Featuring a black and white photo brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher, the electronic messages replicate the campaign that has been used in recent months to announce shows in other regions across the globe. Oasis last performed in Japan and South Korea in spring 2009, including gigs in Nagoya and Osaka, as well as a night at Seoul’s Olympic Gymnastics Arena. The shows will likely take place around the band’s forthcoming Australia dates, which are slated for November 2025.
The Oasis Live ‘25 tour has 38 shows booked so far, and will commence on July 4 at Principality Stadium in Cardiff, Wales. The band is slated to tour through fall 2025, with the run currently slated to wrap up with Nov. 22-23 stops at Estádio Morum BIS in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
The band have not released any material since 2008’s Dig Out Your Soul. At present, Oasis have not officially confirmed that a new record is coming, or revealed a release date for what would be their eighth studio LP. In September, Liam replied to a fan’s question about whether there will be fresh music, responding “Yep it’s already finished,” without offering any additional details. Earlier this week (Nov. 16), however, Liam revoked these claims, telling fans “it was a laugh.”
Oasis endured a hostile split in 2009, after years of headlines related to the Gallagher siblings’ fierce rivalry. Principal songwriter, guitarist and occasional lead singer Noel quit the band after a backstage fight with vocalist Liam at a show in Paris that year. The brothers, now 57 and 51, haven’t performed live together since then, though they have continued to play Oasis songs during their solo gigs and with their side projects.
All the shows announced so far on the Oasis Live ‘25 tour have sold out. Cast and The Verve’s Richard Ashcroft will open in the U.K. and Ireland, and Cage the Elephant will support the reformed band for the North American leg. Special guests for the rest of the dates are yet to be revealed.
