Oasis rehearsing in stadium ahead of start of reunion tour
Oasis will rehearse at Cardiff's Principality Stadium this week ahead of the opening concert of their hugely anticipated reunion tour.
The band kick off the Oasis Live '25 tour this Friday (04.07.25) at the stadium in Wales, which will be the first time Noel Gallagher and Liam Gallagher have performed together in 16 years.
The brothers have made the decision to practice on the stadium stage because they have a fresh line-up - which also includes guitarists Gem Archer and original member Paul 'Bonehead' Arthurs, bassist Andy Bell, new drummer Joey Waronker and keyboard player Christian Madden - and have been away for so long.
A source told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "With a new line-up and it being such a huge first show, the boys will do some songs inside the venue, too.
"Some tours would take a week or two to get into the groove again but there is no time for that and Liam and Noel want every night to be massive."
Last week, Noel, 58, teased that rehearsals had gone very well and he and "our kid" Liam, 52, were sounding great ahead of the tour kicking off.
Appearing on radio station TalkSPORT, he said: "We've got a few days off now and it's sounding huge, so we're all, well this is it, there's no going back now. It's good.'
Oasis will perform to 74,500 fans on the opening night in Cardiff, and they then play a second night at the Principality Stadium on Saturday night (05.07.25) before taking the tour to Manchester, London, Edinburgh and Dublin before jetting off around the globe.
A number of Oasis pop-up stores are opening in the UK and Ireland this summer in the cities hosting the concerts all selling exclusive merchandise.
Amazon.co.uk has also launched the ultimate Oasis fan store hub, where you can purchase exclusive merchandise.
Prime members can save up to 15 per cent on limited edition Oasis CDs, Vinyl and other merch during this summer's Prime Day event from July 8 to July 11.
Fans can also get their hands on previous tour apparel from the band's illustrious 30-year history, available exclusively on Amazon. As well as the "Knebworth 1996" range, fans can now order the beloved 'Be Here Now 1997' dice logo apparel, including t-shirts (in black and white), a long sleeve shirt and a hoodie exclusively on Amazon. This iconic merch design was initially released in celebration of the UK and EU leg of the legendary 'Be Here Now' world tour in 1997, and includes the original Oslo, Stockholm, Copenhagen, Exeter, Newcastle, Aberdeen, Sheffield, London and Birmingham dates on the back.
Amazon is also offering fans the chance to win two tickets to one of the band's sold-out Wembley shows on either September 27 or 28.
From July 8 until July 22, fans should head to the Amazon Oasis Homepage and follow the instructions. Two lucky winners will get a pair of tickets each.
Amazon Music has also curated a special 'Oasis REDISCOVER' playlist filled with the biggest hits and cult classics for fans to enjoy ahead of the stadium tour kicking off.

'They suck': Oscar winner Charlize Theron slams Jeff Bezos' star-studded $50million wedding to Lauren Sánchez in shock comments
Charlize Theron has ripped into attendees of billionaire Amazon mogul Jeff Bezos' wedding to journalist Lauren Sánchez in a blistering speech at a Hollywood event. The Monster actress, 49, deliever the caustic remarks while hosting the fifth annual Block Party for the Charlize Theron Africa Outreach Project in Los Angeles on Saturday. "I think we might be the only people who did not get an invite to the Bezos wedding," the actress deadpanned onstage during the event on the Universal Studios backlot. "But that's OK because they suck and we're cool," Theron added, per The Hollywood Reporter. The Oscar winner went on to thank her guests for 'taking the time to be a part of this, especially when the world feels like it's burning because it is.' Theron continued, "Here in Los Angeles, in the US and across the globe, we're moving backwards fast. Immigration policy has destroyed the lives of families, not criminals; women's rights are becoming less and less every day; queer and trans lives are increasingly being erased; and gender-based violence is on the rise. "This isn't just policy, it's personal." As the crowd applauded her remarks, she reportedly added, "Yeah, f**k them." While Theron was not on the guest list for Bezos and Sánchez's three-day wedding extravaganza, a plethora of A-listers and power players flocked to Venice to celebrate the couple. Kim and Khloé Kardashian, Kris Jenner, Tom Brady, Orlando Bloom, Ivanka Trump, Leonardo DiCaprio, Oprah Winfrey, Usher, Sydney Sweeney and more celebrities attended the festivities. The itinerary included a lavish welcome party and an 'all-nighter' pajama-themed bash — in addition to the main ceremony on San Giorgio Maggiore island that included performances by Matteo Bocelli and Ellie Goulding. However, the over-the-top affair was met with backlash from Venice protesters who demanded Bezos, 61, pay more taxes. Prior to the wedding, international environmental group Greenpeace displayed a large banner directed at the Amazon founder in St. Mark's Square. A laughing Bezos was pictured alongside the words: 'If you can rent Venice for your wedding you can pay more tax.' The organization also took to Instagram to share a video of banner being unveiled, claiming in their caption, 'Jeff Bezos pays his staff poverty wages and dodges tax. No wonder he can afford to shut down half of Venice for his wedding this week.'

Multimillion-dollar Bezos wedding wraps up with pyjama party
Jeff Bezos and his new bride, Lauren Sanchez Bezos, threw a pyjama party for their 250 celebrity guests in Venice on Saturday night as they rounded off three days of lavish wedding celebrations. The Amazon founder, whose $US237 billion ($362 billion) fortune makes him the third-richest person in the world, hosted a grand gala dinner that featured specialities from the Veneto region including baccala, or salt cod, and tiramisu. Music was provided by Usher, the R&B superstar, and DJ Cassidy, whose high-profile performances in the past include Barack Obama's 50th birthday and the wedding of Beyoncé and Jay-Z. There had been reports that Lady Gaga would perform with Sir Elton John, but ultimately neither showed up. Some female guests wore lingerie while the men wore pyjamas. The British actor Orlando Bloom wore black-and-white polka dot pyjamas over a black T-shirt. True to style, Kim Kardashian opted for a risqué look, wearing underwear, a tight corset and thigh-high stockings. Leonardo DiCaprio's Italian girlfriend, 27-year-old model Vittoria Ceretti, wore a transparent dress by Dolce & Gabbana and was photographed leaving the Gritti Palace Hotel. It was the same dress worn by Gisele Bundchen, DiCaprio's ex-girlfriend, in 2003. DiCaprio also embraced the theme, wearing what appeared to be silk pyjamas and a blazer.
