Oasis have officially confirmed their return to Ireland with two massive headline shows at Slane Castle, bringing their touring juggernaut back to County Meath for the first time since their split in 2009. The concerts are scheduled for September 4 and September 5, 2027, forming part of the newly announced Oasis Live ’27 world tour.

According to primary reporting from outlets including LMFM and Consequence, the announcement follows months of intense speculation and social media teasers. These promotional efforts included a drone display over the Etihad Stadium and a recreated photograph of Liam Gallagher standing on stage at Slane, echoing historical imagery from the venue. The band officially confirmed the dates on Monday afternoon, accompanying the news with a characteristic statement provided to the BBC:

"START THE CELEBRATIONS!!!! After a period of reflection ‘The Most Damaging Pop Cultural Force In Recent British History’ has declared itself fit for purpose and will once again return to lift the spirits of the people. Come witness the fitness. It shall be a sight to behold."

The upcoming County Meath performances hold deep historical significance. As noted by the Lancashire Telegraph, Oasis first played the legendary venue in July 1996 as a support act for R.E.M., before returning as headliners in June 2009. Noel and Liam subsequently reunited for the smash-hit Live ’25 tour, playing two sold-out nights at Croke Park, which drew massive crowds and widespread media attention across the globe.

Ticket distribution for the 2027 dates marks a sharp departure from previous ticketing methods used during the reunion. As detailed by the Irish Examiner, the band has abandoned dynamic pricing—which previously sparked widespread fan frustration and subsequent consumer watchdog investigations in Ireland—in favor of fixed pricing tiers. Tickets will only be available through a mandatory registration system designed to curb touting and ease queues.

The tour announcement also coincides with the cinema and streaming rollout of Don’t Look Back in Anger, a new documentary directed by Dylan Southern and Will Lovelace with a script by Steven Knight, chronicling the band's initial comeback shows.
