The Britpop icons kicked off their Live 25 tour on Friday (July 4), making their grand return after 16 years away in front of a sold-out crowd at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff.
They then played a second and final gig at the venue last night, which comes ahead of five homecoming shows at Manchester’s Heaton Park, seven nights at London’s Wembley Stadium, and stops in Edinburgh and Dublin. Later on the Oasis Live ’25 trek, they’ll head to North America, South America, Australia, South Korea and Japan.
Opening last night’s show, the brothers walked on stage hand in hand, as they had done the previous night, before bowing to each other. They then took their positions on opposite sides of the stage and launched into the opener ‘Hello’. Check out the moment, the setlist from night two, and some fan reactions, below.

Jesus Christ, #Oasis just blew the doubters, and my own expectations, away. I’ve seen a lot of good gigs in my time but that was up there! Liam was on FIRE, the setlist was incredible, the crowd was lapping it up! There will never be another moment like that pic.twitter.com/7LHNfJlxqz

‘Some Might Say’
‘Bring It On Down’

Their highly anticipated reunion concerts so far have seen them play a string of their greatest hits, with the band performing the likes of ‘Morning Glory’, ‘Cigarettes & Alcohol’, ‘Supersonic’, ‘Half The World Away’ and more. They closed out their first gig in 16 years with a powerhouse trio of hits: ‘Don’t Look Back In Anger’, ‘Wonderwall’ and ‘Champagne Supernova’.
On night one, both brothers took turns poking fun at Ticketmaster’s dynamic ticket pricing system – something they’ve publicly denied knowing anything about.
The opening gig also included a tribute to late Liverpool star Diogo Jota during a performance of ‘Live Forever’. Jota was killed in a car crash on Thursday (July 03) at just 28 years old.
You can watch pro-shot footage of them arriving on stage and playing ‘Acquiesce’ here.
NME gave the historic night one gig five stars, in a review that read: “After a ‘90s heyday and an often maligned post-millennium era, this is Oasis redesigned for the 21st Century. Playing before a pop-art-meets-psychedelia visual spectacular that never distracts but will look sick on a phone, they seem the quintessential stadium band playing the greatest hits of greatest hits.”
Fans have also shared their takes, with one deeming it “better than Jesus’ return!” and another adding that the brothers’ reunion is “the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen” and “the moment we were all waiting for”.
Last month saw Liam and Noel appear together in an Adidas Originals advert as part of a new partnership with the brand. They also teamed up with Bohemian FC for a new football shirt to mark their return.
