Are Oasis touring in 2027? What the new teasers really tell us
Oasis have posted a run of cryptic teasers pointing towards more live activity in 2027. Glasgow, Manchester and Europe all appear to be in the frame, but plenty remains unconfirmed. Here is what we actually know.
Oasis have spent the last few days doing what Oasis do particularly well: saying almost nothing and sending everyone into a frenzy anyway.
Three cryptic videos have now appeared through the band's official social channels. One seems packed with references to Glasgow. Another has Manchester City clues hiding in plain sight. The latest has pushed the speculation beyond Britain entirely.
The obvious conclusion is that something is coming for 2027.
The less obvious question is what, exactly.
Are Oasis touring in 2027?
At the time of writing, Oasis have not published a confirmed 2027 tour schedule on their official website.
That distinction matters.
There is now plenty of evidence that more live activity is being teased, but there is still a gap between an official clue and an official concert announcement.
The band's first recent teaser appeared on 3 September. According to Radio X, the video was littered with Scottish references, including details fans interpreted as pointing specifically towards Celtic Park in Glasgow.
A second video arrived the following day and immediately shifted attention to Manchester.
This time, two boys were shown playing football beside a red-brick house. One chalked up a tally that reached 12, while other visual details appeared to reference Manchester City.
That has led to widespread speculation about Oasis playing the Etihad Stadium, potentially across a substantial run of dates.
Then came teaser number three.
The latest clue points beyond the UK
The third video, posted on 5 September, complicated things.
Radio X reported that the clip includes a left-hand-drive car, German-language radio commentary and audio connected to Oasis playing Munich in 1997.
That has led fans to wonder whether the eventual announcement could be much larger than a handful of British stadium shows.
None of that confirms a European tour.
It does, however, make one thing increasingly difficult to dismiss: these videos appear to be part of a deliberate sequence, and live dates are the obvious thing they are building towards.
What about the Etihad?
Manchester is currently one of the strongest pieces of the puzzle.
The second teaser appears carefully constructed around Manchester City imagery, and the most eye-catching detail is the tally of 12.
Some fans have taken that literally and suggested Oasis could play 12 dates at the Etihad Stadium.
That would be an extraordinary run, so it deserves a large dose of caution.
The clue itself is real. The interpretation is not yet confirmation.
There is currently no official Oasis announcement stating that 12 Etihad shows will happen, nor are there confirmed ticket dates or prices to work from.
Still, if the eventual answer is a multi-night Manchester residency, the teaser will look considerably less cryptic in hindsight.
Is Oasis at Celtic Park happening?
Glasgow looks similarly deliberate.
The first teaser featured several Scottish references, with fans spotting details that appeared to point towards Celtic Park.
Again, there is an important difference between Oasis deliberately hinting at Scotland and a confirmed Celtic Park booking.
As things stand, no official Oasis tour announcement has confirmed a date at the stadium.
That may sound overly cautious when the clues seem obvious, but ticket rumours move extremely quickly. Once a venue name starts circulating widely, it can begin appearing in social posts and search results as though somebody has actually announced it.
They have not, yet.
And what happened to the Knebworth rumours?
Knebworth has been attached to Oasis 2027 speculation for months.
The obvious reason is history. The band's two Knebworth shows in August 1996 became part of Oasis folklore, and 2026 marked their 30th anniversary.
There has also been reporting around the possibility of future shows there, but the recent official teasers have not simply screamed "Knebworth".
In fact, the Glasgow, Manchester and possible European clues suggest something broader.
A Knebworth return may still form part of whatever happens next. It should not currently be treated as a confirmed Oasis 2027 date.
What is actually confirmed?
Right now, the safest way to separate fact from excitement looks like this:
- Confirmed: Oasis have posted multiple cryptic teasers through their official channels.
- Confirmed: those videos contain clues strongly associated with Scotland, Manchester and Germany or continental Europe.
- Confirmed: Liam Gallagher has previously indicated that further Oasis activity would not happen before 2027.
- Not confirmed: a Celtic Park concert.
- Not confirmed: 12 Etihad Stadium dates.
- Not confirmed: Knebworth.
- Not confirmed: ticket sale dates, prices, presales or transfer rules for any possible 2027 shows.
- Not confirmed: a complete Oasis 2027 tour.
That list could change very quickly.
For now, anyone claiming to have the full dates, ticket prices or guaranteed presale information is running ahead of the band.
Why this matters before tickets even exist
If Oasis do announce several shows in the same city, things could get messy very quickly.
The Live '25 reunion proved how much demand exists. A future run with several Manchester nights, several stadiums or dates across different countries would give fans more opportunities to get tickets, but also more opportunities to panic-buy whichever date appears first.
That is fine until your friends get a different night.
Or the Friday you grabbed turns out to be impossible.
Or Manchester looked sensible in September but Glasgow suddenly works much better by the time the gig arrives.
That is where the number of dates starts to matter just as much as the size of the tour.
Where Swoppd could fit in
If Oasis eventually announce multiple dates, some fans will inevitably end up with the right band and the wrong night.
Imagine one person has tickets for the first Manchester show but needs the Saturday. Another has Saturday tickets and can only make the earlier date.
If the relevant official ticket provider allows legitimate transfer, Swoppd is designed to help those two fans find each other.
That is different from simply listing a ticket for resale and hoping another one appears later. The useful bit is the matching: two fans can have opposite versions of the same problem.
Swoppd cannot override an artist, promoter or ticket provider. If a ticket cannot officially be transferred, it cannot legitimately be swapped through Swoppd.
That caveat matters particularly with Oasis because no 2027 tickets have even been officially announced yet, never mind their transfer conditions.
Anyone talking about swapping specific Oasis 2027 tickets today is getting several steps ahead of reality.
Be suspicious of anyone selling 2027 tickets already
There is no legitimate reason for somebody to be selling you a ticket to an Oasis 2027 show that has not been officially announced.
No confirmed date means no official onsale.
That makes this an especially easy period for fake listings, convincing screenshots and social accounts claiming to have early access.
Until Oasis publish actual dates, use the official Oasis website and the band's verified channels as the starting point.
When ticketing information does arrive, follow the links from the artist, venue or authorised ticket provider rather than relying on whatever happens to rank first in a hurried search.
So, are Oasis coming back in 2027?
All signs point towards Oasis preparing to announce something live-related for 2027.
The official teasers are real. The Glasgow and Manchester clues are difficult to ignore. The latest video suggests the picture may stretch further into Europe.
But the most interesting thing about the story right now is also the thing worth remembering: Oasis still have not actually told us the dates.
That is likely to change.
Until it does, Celtic Park is a clue, the Etihad is a clue, Knebworth is a rumour and any ticket sale date you see floating around is not something to plan your morning around just yet.
