Oasis and Phil Collins are among the British artists set to be inducted into this year’s Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, alongside heavy metal group Iron Maiden.
In total, six UK acts will be honoured, with Sade, Billy Idol and Manchester legends Joy Division and New Order, who share a joint nomination, also recognised.
The 2026 honourees were announced by Ryan Seacrest during an episode of American Idol on Tuesday.
Collins’ 2026 induction will be his second, having previously been honoured as a member of Genesis in 2010.
Joy Division and New Order share a single induction, with the latter formed by the remaining members after the 1980 death of Joy Division lead singer Ian Curtis.
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame chairman John Sykes said: “Induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame is music’s highest honour.
“We look forward to celebrating these remarkable artists at this year’s ceremony – it’s going to be an unforgettable night.”
Among the honourees this year are Wu-Tang Clan, Queen Latifah, Luther Vandross and Latin superstar Celia Cruz.
British representation was more limited in 2025, with Bad Company and Joe Cocker among the few UK acts honoured.
Artists are eligible for inclusion in the hall 25 years after releasing their first commercial recording.
Joy Division, Oasis and Billy Idol were among last year’s nominees who failed to make the cut.
The 2026 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony will take place in Los Angeles in November, before debuting on Disney+ in December.
More than 1,200 artists, historians and music industry professionals vote to decide the nominees each year.
Elsewhere, Oasis teased their upcoming reunion tour book.
Oasis Live ’25 Opus, chronicles the Britpop band’s world tour with behind-the-scenes snapshots of the group and their fans.
Created in collaboration with the Gallagher brothers, the photographs were shot by Simon Emmett who was also behind the reunion tour announcement photograph of Liam and Noel side by side.
Four different editions will go on sale from May 2026, each containing a foreword written by Emmett, with the very first copy of the Supernova Edition, numbered 001, going up for auction in support of Teenage Cancer Trust.
The Oasis’ reunion tour was announced in August 2024, 15 years after their dramatic split in 2009, which was prompted by a backstage brawl at the Rock en Seine festival.
The rock band have had eight number one singles and albums each in the UK chart, with Wonderwall, Champagne Supernova, and Some Might Say among their most well-known hits.
