Oasis are preparing to unveil the dates for the international leg of their 2025 reunion tour, it appears.
On Saturday evening (29 September), the British rock band unveiled snaps of huge billboards in various locations around the world, with the strapline reading: “Be careful what you wish for.”
The posts to social media also included the time and date of Monday (30 September) 8am ET (1pm BST), and added the hashtag #OasisLive25.
One fan shared a video to X/Twitter confirming an Oasis billboard in Toronto, while another was placed in Times Square, New York. Another billboard seemed to have gone up in Chicago.
The Independent reported last week that brothers Noel and Liam Gallagher were poised to reveal their plans for an international tour, having sold out all of their UK and Ireland shows in August.
This includes seven nights at Wembley Stadium in London and five shows at Manchester’s Heaton Park.

Noel and Liam will also be joining each other onstage for concerts in Cardiff, Edinburgh and Dublin.
Their reunion announcement landed right before the 30-year anniversary of Definitely Maybe, the band’s record-breaking debut that includes hits “Supersonic”, “Shakermaker” and “Live Forever”.
Next year, meanwhile, will mark the 30th anniversary of their second album (What’s the Story) Morning Glory?, one of the biggest-selling LPs by a British act of all time.
Last month, Oasis definitively ruled out a return to Glastonbury Festival, amid rumours that they could headline in June before their tour kicks off.
“Despite media speculation, Oasis will not be playing Glastonbury 2025 or any other festivals next year,” they said in a statement.
“The only way to see the band perform will be on their Oasis Live ‘25 World Tour.”
They previously confirmed that their UK and Ireland shows would be the band’s exclusive European appearances.
Formed in Manchester in 1991, Oasis rose to become one of the biggest-selling bands of the era, a phenomenon even among their Britpop peers such as Blur, Pulp and Suede.
All seven of their studio albums topped the charts, with that success translating to ticket sales – most famously when 125,000 fans turned up for each of their two Knebworth shows in 1996. They headlined Glastonbury twice, first in 1995, then again in 2004. They won six Brit Awards and two Ivor Novellos.
They split in 2009, following a backstage row between brothers Noel and Liam at Rock en Seine festival in Paris.
