It finally happened — Oasis are back, and their first live performance in 16 years took place at a sold-out Principality Stadium in Cardiff. The iconic band kicked off the set with “Hello” and ended on a high with “Champagne Supernova,” sealing their comeback with pure Britpop magic.
Noel and Liam Gallagher, back on stage together, didn’t just bring the music — they brought their signature wit. Noel poked fun at the fluctuating ticket prices, joking, “Hope it was worth the £175… sorry, £210… actually, £250.” Liam upped the ante, asking the crowd, “Was it worth the £4000 you paid for a ticket?” The fans’ roaring cheers answered for them.
The night wasn’t just about nostalgia. During “Live Forever,” the band paid tribute to Diogo Jota, the Liverpool footballer tragically killed in a road accident just a day prior. Another emotional highlight came with “Cast No Shadow,” dedicated to Richard Ashcroft, who opened the night with his own set.
The encore was a full-circle moment. Noel Gallagher took a moment to thank the band’s long-time members — Andy Bell, Gem Archer, Paul “Bonehead” Arthurs — and even made a quip about “our 14th drummer Joey Waronker”, while acknowledging keyboardist Christian Madden.
The 2025 Oasis reunion wasn’t just a concert. It was a moment in music history — raw, reflective, and defiant. For fans who waited nearly two decades, the night in Cardiff was a dream finally realized.
