Babe, wake up. Oasis just announced a 38-date mega tour for 2027 – including a return to Knebworth, 31 years after their legendary 1996 shows. While tickets may have cost 20 quid the first time round, this time they’ll set you back around 10 times that amount. Still, can you really put a price on seeing “the best band on the planet”? The rock band’s Knebworth shows – which close out the tour for the last two weekends of September 2027 – will be part of a multi-month run that’ll see the Gallagher brothers fill stadiums from Las Vegas to Paris and their hometown of Manchester. Notably, they’re also playing on 27 June 2027… which is the Sunday at Glastonbury. Makes you think!

But before Oasis were the biggest band in the UK, they were… the biggest band in the UK. Back in the ’90s and early-2000s (before their final, band-ending fall-out in 2009), the Gallagher brothers and co released seven era-defining albums, dominated tabloid inches with their shenanigans and had a generation of men and women dressing in parkas, bucket hats and tiny coloured shades. To celebrate the band’s legacy, and to mark another year of Oasis on tour, here are 25 throwback photos from their earlier years.
