Liam Gallagher Puts the Breaks on Oasis Mania: No Tours Until 2027 as Reunion Hype Hits a Wall

Oasis fans may have to put their bucket hats and parka jackets away for a bit longer because Liam Gallagher has come out with an official announcement that the Britpop legends will not be gracing the stage until 2027. It was a year of reunions and 41 successful performances, but all that speculating about what the future holds is momentarily put on hold because of this reality check from the one man who can deliver it.
The news came in a succession of posts on X (Twitter), with fans rallying the frontman for information about tour dates in 2026, Knebworth speculations, and whether or not Oasis were indeed lining up another monumental comeback. Liam's response was simple: an outright, unrepentant no. Asked to make announcements regarding 2026 dates, he simply said: “We’re not doing anything in 2026 sorry.” Further questioning about Knebworth — speculated to be a virtual certainty with bookies about a comeback — was summarily dismissed: “ITS NOT HAPPENING.” In one instance, he even threw in the net result of a cheeky shrug: “I don’t [have] snizzle to do until 2027 I mean happy Christmas.”
The hiatus comes after the band’s monster ‘Live ’25’ reunion tour, which concluded in Brazil on November 24 following 41 shows that rekindled the passion of the original fans and brought an entirely new following into the fold. The tour was a cultural touchstone, a point of joint nostalgia and renewal that spanned continents. When the final show concluded, a statement from the band was both beautiful and mysterious, as they quoted an excerpt from a piece by journalist Simon Price that had previously labeled them “the most damaging pop cultural force in recent British history,” hailing instead “love, joy, tears, and euphoria” that poured into every stadium around the globe. And then came the phrase that sparked a thousand theories: “There will now be a pause for a period of reflection.”
And reflect, it seems, that everyone did. Rumors of further live dates, especially the long-rumored return to Knebworth, surfaced with all the speed of Oasis rock riffs. The rumors took on even greater fuel when Liam began taunting, “I know things you don’t know,” prompting a frenzy of activity among fans — and again when he told the faithful at their final Wembley show, “See you next year,” an exchange that, as he has since admitted, brought him “a few tuts and raised eyebrows.” Even officials of the British government found themselves swept up in the rumor vortex, as Lady Taylor of Stevenage announced in October from the floor of the House of Lords that Knebworth House would be hosting five days of Oasis concerts in July of next year — a claim she quickly disavowed when it made headlines.
But for now, all indicators are pointing to a quiet. Or at least, an Oasis-level quiet, which means that Liam will still send out cryptic tweets, Noel will still deny everything, and the fans will still put their money on possible venues, setlists, and new music. But all indications are that 2026 is a no-go.
Still, if history has taught us anything, it’s that Oasis never does anything small — or predictable. A pause could mean rest, recalibration, behind-the-scenes negotiations, or the build-up to something even bigger. This, remember, is the same band that came back after 15 years and sold out stadiums around the globe. Until then, Oasis mania remains on the backburner, rumors stay alive, and 2027 is looming in the horizon, which could possibly be the next chapter in this rock ‘n’ roll saga of reunions.
