On Eve of Final Oasis Reunion Shows, Liam Gallagher Taps Brakes on ‘See You Next Year’ Talk: ‘Need to Sit Down and Discuss These Things’

The band is slated to close out their tremendous comeback year with two shows at MorumBIS in São Paulo, Brazil on Saturday (Nov. 22) and Sunday (Nov. 23).

If you managed to snag tickets to see Oasis on their triumphant Live ’25 tour this year, congratulations. If you didn’t and had your hopes raised last week when singer Liam Gallagher appeared to (once again) tease the possibility of additional shows next year, well, keep that bucket hat on the shelf for now because it sounds like it’s not at all a done deal.

As the group geared up for the launch of the final push of gigs in South America this weekend, Liam, as he does, hopped into the comments on an X user’s post last Wednesday (Nov. 12) after they asked if he was sad to see the tour end, saying “I’m not actually as I know things you don’t,” after earlier suggesting that his unexpected rapprochement with older brother songwriter Noel Gallagher was “only starting.”

Well, Liam was back in the comments on Wednesday (Nov. 19) when asked by a fan if anyone had “scolded you for saying ‘see u next year’?,” he replied, “there was a few tuts and raised eyebrows.” Another fan lamented that with just a few shows left they didn’t get to see a single gig and feared not surviving 2026 if there isn’t another tour next year. “WE NEED MORE,” they pleaded. Liam rubbished that anxiety talk and said, “stop being dramatic.”

Then, he threw yet another spanner in the works when asked to “just reply with one word is there gonna be a 2026 tour.” His answer, sorry to say, was “NO.” With the muddying of the water complete, another devastated superfan yelled, “ARE YOU F–KING SERIOUS,” to which Gallagher replied, “YES IM F–KING SERIOUS.”

It was all a bit soul-crushing, though Gallagher once again eased the door open a tiny crack in a lengthier response in which he said he will definitely be around next year, but, like, maybe not Oasis? “You will see me next year and the year after and so on just not sure yet if it’ll be with oasis we need to sit down and discuss these things,” he wrote. “If it was all up to me then you know we’d be touring till the day we die as it’s the best thing in the world but UNFORTUNATELY it’s not.”

If you simply cannot stand the suspense, get yourself down to São Paulo, Brazil’s MOrumBIS stadium on Saturday (Nov. 22) or Sunday (Nov. 23) for what sounds like the final shows by the reunited Britpop legends… for now, anyway.
