American Oasis fans can stop crying their hearts out.
The British rock band will post dates for an upcoming 2025 US tour next Friday, The Sun reported Friday.
The news comes on the heels of Oasis selling out its just-announced reunion tour in the UK and Ireland. The band has been on a 15-year hiatus owing to a bitter feud between bandmates — and brothers — Liam and Noel Gallagher.
“It’s going to be a handful of massive dates in major cities,” a source told The Sun. “Brits living in New York and Los Angeles should have a decent chance at getting themselves a ticket.”

Though plenty of Americans will also be angling to attend Oasis’ US shows — the band hasn’t toured the States since 2008 — scores of British fans were left disappointed after encountering technical difficulties and so-called “dynamic pricing,” which priced out many hoping to see the Gallaghers on the same stage once more.
“Oasis don’t want a repeat of the issues they had with tickets for their home gigs but they are expecting the same huge demand they saw [in the UK],” the source told The Sun.
The band sold out 14 shows in London, Cardiff, Manchester, Edinburgh and Dublin in just 10 hours, before adding 3 more dates due to “unprecedented demand.”

The US tour is expected to include stops in Chicago and Boston in addition to New York and LA.
Oasis teased a possible run of US shows just days after tickets for their UK concerts went on sale.
The band shared an Instagram Story showing a Times Square billboard put up by Amazon Music that implored the rockers to come stateside on Sept. 2.
“If we need to put up a billboard to get these guys to come to the States, here it is,” read the billboard, which also featured a black-and-white photo of the brooding Gallagher brothers.

Notably, the brothers’ past trips to the US haven’t always gone smoothly.
In 1994, Noel briefly quit the band after Liam threw a tambourine at his head while in LA for their maiden North America tour.
Then, in 1996, Liam refused to travel with the group for their next US outing, reportedly because he was busy house-hunting with his then-girlfriend, actress Patsy Kensit. Like many of Liam and Noel’s squabbles, it blew over and Liam caught up with the rest of Oasis a few days later.
The band officially broke up in 2009 after Noel and Liam had a heated argument before they were set to perform at the Rock en Seine festival.
The Gallaghers officially announced they were getting the band back together on Aug. 27, after teasing fans that something was in the offing.
“This is it, this is happening. The guns have fallen silent. The stars have aligned. The great wait is over. Come see. It will not be televised,” they posted on X.
