Liam and Noel Gallagher have booked another full summer of stadiums for 2027, with 38 concerts across 11 stops in the UK, Europe, the United States and Ireland. The run begins at Celtic Park in Glasgow on May 21 and finishes with four nights at Knebworth in September, putting Oasis back on the field where they played the two concerts that became shorthand for the scale of Britpop at its peak.

The official Oasis announcement confirms dates in Glasgow, Manchester, Munich, Barcelona, Amsterdam, Paris, Rome, the Boston area, Las Vegas, Slane and Knebworth.

The numbers alone make Live ’27 larger than a token extension of the reunion. Manchester gets 11 nights at the Etihad Stadium. Glasgow gets five. Boston and Las Vegas receive three each. Knebworth gets four shows spread across two September weekends.

Richard Ashcroft is listed as special guest on the venue information released so far, reuniting Oasis with one of the most natural opening acts imaginable for a tour built around the British rock music that dominated the mid-1990s.

Oasis Live ’27 Full Tour Dates

Knebworth Is the Date With 30 Years of History Behind It

Plenty of stadium shows on this schedule will be enormous. Knebworth carries something else.

Oasis played there on August 10 and 11, 1996, in front of a combined crowd of 250,000 people. More than two percent of the UK population attempted to buy tickets, according to the official Knebworth 1996 documentary synopsis.

The concerts came after (What’s the Story) Morning Glory? had turned Oasis from a major British band into a cultural event. Knebworth became the visual shorthand for that moment: fields filled with people, helicopters overhead, Liam in sunglasses, Noel with a Union Jack guitar and a setlist capable of carrying an audience that size without much help from spectacle.

Three decades later, the return is larger in duration. Oasis will play Knebworth on September 11, 12, 18 and 19, 2027.

For anyone who followed the long history of Noel Gallagher and Oasis, booking four new Knebworth dates would have sounded absurd during much of the 15-year period between the 2009 split and the reunion announcement.

Oasis 2027 Ticket Prices

The pricing is more transparent than the first reunion sale. Ticketmaster states that the announced Oasis Live ’27 prices are fixed.

VIP packages climb much higher. Knebworth VIP options run from £317.50 to £513.50, while Manchester packages reach £571.60. Rome goes as high as €651.36 and Munich reaches €687.50.

Knebworth also has coach packages, rail travel options and camping. Ticket and hotel packages are being offered for Manchester, Glasgow, Barcelona, Munich, Rome and Amsterdam.

Fixed Ticket Prices Follow the Backlash Over Oasis Dynamic Pricing

The words fixed prices are doing more work here than they would on most tour announcements.

The first reunion sale became a story of its own after some 2025 tour buyers encountered sharply higher “in demand” ticket tiers during the purchasing process. The controversy was widely described as dynamic pricing at the time.

A later UK competition investigation drew a more precise distinction. The Competition and Markets Authority said it had not found evidence of algorithmic real-time dynamic pricing, but it did examine Ticketmaster’s use of tiered pricing and secured changes designed to show buyers clearer price information before and during a sale. The Guardian reported the CMA findings in September 2025.

For Live ’27, the venue guides publish fixed standard prices before fans enter the sale. That gives buyers something the first reunion rush badly lacked: a clear idea of the maximum standard price before the queue starts moving.

Manchester Gets Eleven Nights

Knebworth owns the history, but Manchester carries the weight of the schedule.

Eleven Etihad Stadium dates across June give Oasis something closer to a hometown residency than a normal tour stop. Shows run from June 4 through June 26, including several midweek dates.

That concentration also says plenty about where the reunion stands commercially. Oasis do not need to manufacture scarcity around one enormous Manchester weekend. They can book most of a month and still expect the demand to be there.

Richard Ashcroft Is Back With Them

Ticketmaster venue pages list Richard Ashcroft as the special guest for the dates already detailed across the UK and multiple European stops.

The pairing carries its own history. The Verve and Oasis rose through the same decade, Noel Gallagher dedicated “Cast No Shadow” to Ashcroft, and the two acts have remained linked in British rock mythology ever since.

On a tour already leaning hard into the emotional pull of the 1990s, Ashcroft does not feel like an arbitrary support booking. He belongs in the story.

What About the Oasis 2027 Setlist?

No 2027 setlist has been announced.

The 2025 reunion shows built heavily around Definitely Maybe and (What’s the Story) Morning Glory?, with “Acquiesce,” “Morning Glory,” “Some Might Say,” “Supersonic,” “Live Forever,” “Wonderwall,” “Don’t Look Back in Anger” and “Champagne Supernova” among the songs that defined the comeback.

There is no official indication yet that Live ’27 will be built around a radically different catalogue.

The important point is that the band now has room to change it. Thirty-eight dates are enough for Oasis to keep the core songs everyone expects while moving deeper cuts in and out without rebuilding the entire show.

Oasis Return to Europe After the Reunion Became Bigger Than Nostalgia

The first reunion tour put Liam and Noel onstage together for the first time since Oasis broke apart in 2009. Ticketmaster says the 2025 run stretched across 41 shows on five continents and drew more than two million fans.

By the time Live ’27 begins, the reunion will also have a feature documentary behind it. Oasis: Don’t Look Back in Anger, built from the Live ’25 tour, reached cinemas and IMAX in September 2026.

A second full tour therefore lands in a different atmosphere from the first. In 2025 the question was whether Liam and Noel could get through the reunion. In 2027, the practical problem is getting a ticket.

What Fans Need to Know Before the Sale

• 38 shows are currently confirmed.
• The tour begins May 21, 2027 in Glasgow.
• The final announced show is September 19, 2027 at Knebworth.
• There is no general onsale for the initial release.
• Successful applicants receive a unique, non-transferable code.
• Ticket sales are staggered across September 25, 26 and 27.
• Prices published so far are fixed.
• Richard Ashcroft is listed as special guest across the venue pages already released.
• Knebworth tickets start at £170.50 for general admission.

Thirty years ago, more than two million people reportedly tried to get into two Oasis shows at Knebworth. In 2027 there will be four of them, another 34 dates around the world, and a ticket system deliberately designed to stop the entire audience from arriving at the same digital door at once.

The reunion already proved Oasis could come back. Live ’27 is the part where they find out how long the second life can run.

It’s not easy for a new band to generate a healthy buzz on the basis of just one song, but that’s what Brooklyn shoegazers Crate did. Back in February 2024, Crate released their lovely, blissed-out debut single “Julia,” and it made our list of the year’s best shoegaze tracks. It took Crate a solid year to come out with another single. When they dropped their single “Necklace” last year, they wrote, “Swear to god this isn’t the only song you’ll get from us this year.” God must be offended because 2025 ended without any more Crate music. But before we reach the end of 2026, their full-length debut will be out in the world.

Slipknot’s 2027 stadium tour went on presale this week, and the loudest reaction isn’t about Wembley, Fenway or SoFi. It’s about the six dates that have Marilyn Manson on them. According to Lambgoat, comments under the announcement range from fans vowing to skip every Manson show to others defending the booking outright, with one widely shared post reading: ‘Why you are offering support to someone as vile as Manson is beyond me. So disgusting.’

The Slipknot Marilyn Manson pairing covers Wembley Stadium on July 3 and all five South American stadiums in September, and not one of the thirteen North American dates. Manson has denied every allegation made against him, the Los Angeles District Attorney declined to file criminal charges in January 2025, and neither Slipknot nor Manson had responded to the criticism at the time of writing.

What The Fans Are Saying

The routing dropped Monday, every date and opener is here, and within an hour the conversation had one subject.

The comment Lambgoat pulled is the cleanest version of the objection: ‘Why you are offering support to someone as vile as Manson is beyond me. So disgusting.’ Underneath it, the same two camps you’d expect. One group says they’ll buy tickets for any date without him and skip the six that have him. The other says he’s never been convicted of anything and a stadium bill isn’t a courtroom.

Both are right about their facts. That’s what makes this one hard to wave away.

What’s missing is a third voice. Slipknot haven’t said a word. Manson hasn’t either. Corey Taylor, who’s not shy about anything, hasn’t touched it. The presale went ahead Tuesday morning as scheduled, and the general on-sale is still Friday.

Where Manson Is, And Where He Isn’t

This is the part I keep coming back to.

Manson is on six of the nineteen dates. Wembley Stadium in London on July 3, then São Paulo, Buenos Aires, Santiago, Lima and Bogotá in September. Hatebreed are alongside him on all six.

He is not on a single North American date. Not Fenway. Not SoFi. Not Soldier Field. Not Toronto, not Montréal, not any of the thirteen stadiums where Slipknot’s biggest and most vocal audience actually lives. Those shows get Bring Me The Horizon and a rotating third act.

You can read that two ways. The generous version: it’s routing. Manson toured Europe and South America hard in 2026, his Antichrist Superstar anniversary run did real business there, and he draws in those markets. The other version: somebody in the Slipknot camp knew exactly what the reaction would be in the United States and kept him off every date where it would cost tickets.

I think it’s the second one, and I don’t think that’s a criticism of Slipknot. It’s a band being honest about its own audience — just not out loud.

Where The Case Actually Stands

Every time this story comes up, the legal picture gets flattened into one sentence, so here it is properly.

Multiple women have accused Manson of sexual assault and abuse since 2021. He has denied all of it, consistently, and says every relationship was consensual. After a four-year investigation, the Los Angeles County District Attorney declined to file criminal charges in January 2025, citing the statute of limitations on the domestic violence allegations and insufficient evidence to prove sexual assault beyond a reasonable doubt. No criminal charge has ever been filed.

The civil side is different. A jury trial in a lawsuit brought by his former personal assistant is scheduled for November 15, 2027, revived earlier this year under a California law that reopened a window for older claims. Manson’s attorney has said publicly the case will never reach a courtroom once their motion for summary judgment is heard. Manson’s own defamation suit against one of his accusers was largely dismissed; he dropped what remained in late 2024 and paid her legal fees.

Put the calendar together. Wembley is July 3, 2027. The trial date is November 15, 2027. Slipknot booked Manson for their biggest show ever four and a half months before he’s due in front of a jury — unless his lawyers stop it first, which they say they will.

He’s not without defenders in high places, either. Sharon Osbourne went on her own podcast in August to call him a friend and say she doesn’t believe the allegations. The fans commenting this week clearly aren’t persuaded.

Why Slipknot Booked Him Anyway

Here’s my read, and you’re free to disagree with it.

Slipknot in 2026 are a band remaking themselves in public. Sid Wilson is out, Eloy Casagrande is behind the kit, they’ve launched their own label, and Jim Root is telling fans the next album is going to hurt some feelings. Arsenal dropped with no warning. This is not a band in a careful mood.

Booking Manson fits that. He’s the most argued-about name in rock, he sells in the markets he’s been placed in, and if you’ve gone back through his catalogue in order lately you know the peak was real. From inside the Slipknot camp, this probably looked like a statement of independence: we book who we want.

The problem is the fans didn’t sign up for a statement. They signed up for a stadium show. And a meaningful number of them just said, in public, that they’ll spend their money on the other thirteen dates instead.

What Happens Next

Nothing, probably, in the short term. Bands almost never pull an opener over comments, and Manson’s dates are eight to twelve months away. The general on-sale is Friday, October 2, at 10am local time, and the Wembley date will be the first real test — it’s the one show where Manson is on the bill in a market where the objection is loud.

If Slipknot say anything, it’ll come from Clown, and it’ll be about art and freedom. If Manson says anything, it’ll be a line about his accusers. Neither will change a mind in the comments.

What might is the number on Wembley’s ticket report in October. Bands read those.

Why you are offering support to someone as vile as Manson is beyond me. So disgusting. Anyone going and supporting this is a weirdo.

TL;DR

• Slipknot fans are pushing back on Marilyn Manson’s spot on the 2027 stadium tour, with some vowing to skip his dates. Others are defending the booking.
• Manson is on six of nineteen dates: Wembley Stadium, July 3, and all five South American shows in September. He is not on any of the thirteen North American dates.
• Manson denies all allegations. The LA District Attorney declined to file criminal charges in January 2025 after a four-year investigation.
• A civil jury trial brought by a former personal assistant is scheduled for November 15, 2027, four and a half months after Wembley. His lawyers say it will never get that far.
• Neither Slipknot nor Manson has responded. General on-sale is Friday, October 2.
