The Oasis Live ‘25 tour arrives in Toronto on Sunday (August 24) and all of the stage times have been confirmed – find them below.
The first dates of the North American leg of the Britpop greats’ massive comeback tour take place in the Rogers Stadium in Toronto on Sunday and Monday, with support to come from Cage The Elephant.
As confirmed on Oasis’ Instagram page, the fan plaza at Rogers Stadium will open at 4pm local time, while the stadium bowl will be opened at 5.30pm.
Cage The Elephant will take to the stage at 7.30pm, while Oasis’ headline set will kick off at 8:45pm. Based on previous shows, fans can expect Liam and Noel Gallagher and co. to play a roughly two-hour set, with the venue curfew set for 11pm.
The remaining North American dates will take place in Chicago, East Rutherford, Pasadena and Mexico City, after which they will head back for two final nights at Wembley. Later in the year, they play in South Korea, Japan, Australia, Argentina, Chile and Brazil.
Shortly after their support slots were announced, NME spoke to Cage The Elephant about getting the news of the shows. “I think I might have blacked out a little bit!” guitarist Brad Shultz said.
“It’s an honour to support Oasis,” he said. “It’s a band that me and Matt [Shultz, vocalist and younger brother] grew up with. The first song that I ever learned on guitar was ‘Let It Be’ by The Beatles, and the second song was ‘Wonderwall’ by Oasis. Not too shabby with my first two songs!”
Shultz continued: “They’re a band that I’ve always respected for their songwriting sensibility, but also the rawness and realness of that band – I’ve always gravitated towards that. They make the type of records that you can put on front to back. There’s certain bands that just don’t miss, and they’re one of those bands.”
NME gave Oasis’ historic first comeback concert at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium a glowing five-star review, writing: “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.”
