Originally planned as a tour solely in their native U.K., Live '25 is now taking the globally popular group all around the world, including two nights at MetLife Stadium just outside NYC, on August 31 and September 1. So what's the story, morning glory, on what to expect? Read on for more information about the concert below, and get tickets.

What album is Oasis touring?

The Oasis Live '25 Tour is not in support of a single album, but rather a reunion that many fans thought would never happen. Oasis has not performed live since two founding members, brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher, acrimoniously split off into solo careers and the group disbanded in 2009.

Now that the Gallaghers and their bandmates have come back together, they are performing songs from various albums and other projects, though their first two albums, Definitely Maybe and (What's the Story) Morning Glory? are most heavily represented. Fan-favorite hits like "Wonderwall," "Champagne Supernova," and "Don't Look Back in Anger" are all on the set list.

Where in the NYC area is Oasis performing?

Oasis is bringing the Live '25 Tour to MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, just outside NYC. The venue is approximately 30-40 minutes from the city by various forms of transporation:

Bus: Take the 351 Meadowlands Express bus from Port Authority Bus Terminal.
Train: Take the NJ Transit train from Penn Station to Meadowlands, with a transfer at Secaucus Junction.
Car: The venue is 20 minutes from midtown Manhattan by car, but event traffic is likely to add extra travel time.

The venue permits clear bags that are less than 12" x 6" x 12", or non-clear bags less than 4.5" x 6.5" or less in size. One-gallon clear plastic freezer bags are also permitted. Bags that do not fit these guidelines will not be allowed.

The stadium has elevators and escalators, accessible restrooms, and wheelchair-accessible seating. Please visit the venue's website for additional accessibility information.

What is the runtime of the Oasis Live '25 Tour?

At previous stops on the Oasis Live '25 Tour, the band has performed for approximately 2 hours, playing 23 songs. The exact runtime is subject to change slightly at each stop.

What is the age recommendation for the Oasis Live '25 Tour?

The Oasis Live '25 Tour is open to attendees of all ages, and MetLife Stadium does not have any age restrictions. Those who have been fans of Oasis for years can take their children to experience the music for the first time. Ear protection is recommended for kids, though, as rock concerts can get pretty loud, especially when everyone's shouting along with the lyrics!

What is Oasis's music genre?

Oasis is a rock band emblematic of the Britpop movement that emerged in the '90s. Contrary to the name, Britpop bands largely produced alternative rock music, influenced to various degrees by guitar pop, indie pop, and glam rock.

What can I expect at an Oasis show?

Oasis delivers a good old-fashioned rock and roll set, covering all their biggest hits and then some over the course of two hours. Longtime fans can expect a thrilling nostalgia trip where thousands of your fellow fans will scream every word alongside you — as they have at past tour stops, according to reports.

Also per reports, traces of the band's past tension seem to be gone, at least while they're on stage, replaced by a similar sentimentality and excitement as the fans. Multiple reviewers cited the song "Acquiesce," in which the Gallagher brothers share vocals, as a highlight.

Who else will be performing at the Oasis Live '25 Tour?

Two-time Grammy-winning rock band Cage the Elephant will open for Oasis at the MetLife Stadium stop of the Live '25 Tour. Formed in America in 2006 and based in London since 2008, the band has released six albums of music that incorporates genres like classic rock, '90s alternative, blues, punk rock, and funk sounds.

Alongside Oasis band members Liam Gallagher (lead vocals), Noel Gallagher (lead guitar, vocals), Paul "Bonehead" Arthurs (guitar), Gem Archer (guitar), and Andy Bell (bass), the show features multiple touring musicians: Joey Waronker (drums), Christian Madden (keyboard), Alastair White (trombone), Joe Auckland (trumpet), and Steve Hamilton (saxophone).

Has Oasis performed live in NYC before?

The last time Oasis performed live in NYC was during its fated Dig Out Your Soul Tour in 2008, at Madison Square Garden. Past tours have taken them to venues like the Beacon Theatre, Radio City Music Hall, Hammerstein Ballroom, the now-closed Roseland Ballroom and Wetlands Preserve nightclub, and even Richmond County Bank Ballpark on Staten Island. Oasis was also the musical guest on a 1997 episode of Saturday Night Live, appearing while in NYC for their Be Here Now Tour.
