Oasis announce more shows including extra Knebworth gigs

Oasis have announced extra shows as part of their new tour - including two more gigs at Knebworth.

The band, led by Noel and his brother Liam Gallagher, will return to Knebworth, more than 30 years after their historic gigs at the Hertfordshire park, on September 11, 12, 18, 19 - and now 25 and 26 - in 2027.

They have also added another date in Rome on 26 July, and one in Munich on 6 July.

In a post on social media, the band said the extra shows were because of "phenomenal demand".

The band previously announced 11 dates at the Etihad Stadium, home of Manchester City, as well as shows at Knebworth and in Glasgow, Munich, Barcelona, Amsterdam, Paris, Rome, Boston, Las Vegas, and Slane Castle in Ireland.

The Paris dates at the Stade de France have been changed to 20 and 23 July due to rail engineering works near the venue on the 24th.

Following the announcement of the Live 27 world tour, Noel ruled out making new music with the band.

Speculation about another tour had been building for months, ramping up considerably around the 30th anniversary of the Knebworth shows, which saw the band playing to 250,000 people in August 1996.

Coming at the height of Oasis's fame, it is estimated that more than 2.5m people applied to go to the two gigs, breaking box office records at the time.

Registration for fans wanting to purchase tickets is now closed.

Successful applicants will be sent a unique, non-transferable code to access an allocated on-sale window.

In the UK, ticket sales will take place on 25, 26 and 27 September, with three selling windows each day.

Fans will be informed directly which window they can access, and at what time.

Last week, the tour promoters announced a new approach to live music at Knebworth.

There will be additional transport and accommodation provisions at the venue, including rail and coach options, as well as a purpose-built campsite village.

Fans have been advised not to drive to Knebworth and to instead consider the transport options provided.

The band reunited last year for their Live 25 tour, which sold out within minutes of tickets going on sale, and was estimated by Forbes to have generated more than £293m in revenue.

For Live 25, the Gallagher brothers were joined by guitarists Paul "Bonehead" Arthurs and Gem Archer, bass player Andy Bell and drummer Joey Waronker.

The highly anticipated reunion came after a long-standing feud between the siblings when the band split in 2009 - reportedly prompted by a backstage brawl at the Rock en Seine festival in France.

The band have had eight UK number one singles and eight UK number one albums, with Wonderwall, Don't Look Back In Anger and Roll With It among their best-known hits.
