Oasis to play first concert in London in 16 years
After a run of homecoming gigs in Manchester's Heaton Park, the Don't Look Back In Anger singers, fronted by Gallagher brothers Liam and Noel, will take to the stage at London's Wembley Stadium on Friday.
The Champagne Supernova singing rock band announced their highly anticipated reunion tour in August last year, after Noel quit in 2009 after a backstage brawl at the Rock en Seine festival in Paris.
The Wonderwall singers will now return to perform at Wembley Stadium for the first time since July 12, 2009, when they performed during their Dig Out Your Soul tour.
With five nights scheduled, the group posted door and stage timings on their Instagram account with an hour-by-hour breakdown of the evening, starting with the gates opening at 5pm.
The night will kick off from 6pm with the rock band Cast, followed by singer Richard Ashcroft at 7pm.
Oasis will then take the stage for a two-hour set at 8.15pm.
The group kicked off their Oasis Live '25 world tour on July 4 at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff, receiving five star reviews from critics at The Guardian, The Telegraph and The Times.
The group has also dominated the UK album charts, with three top five albums, according to the Official Charts Company.
While fans were excited at the reunion, some were outraged after some standard tickets in the UK and Ireland jumped from £148 (€170) to £355 (€408).
The controversy prompted the Government and the UK's competition watchdog to pledge to look at the use of dynamic pricing.
After their final London gig on August 3, the group will move north to Edinburgh's Murrayfield Stadium before performing at Dublin's Croke Park.
The band will then head to Japan, South Korea, South America, Australia and North America.
Formed in Manchester in 1991, the band was led by lead guitarist Noel and lead vocalist Liam during their 18 years together.
Oasis signed to independent record label Creation Records in 1993, rising to fame with the release of their debut chart-topping album Definitely Maybe on August 29 1994.
They had hits with songs including Don't Look Back In Anger, Champagne Supernova, Wonderwall and Live Forever.
Dig Out Your Soul, the band's last studio album, was released in 2008, just months before the Paris row.

What is Wilms tumour? WILMS tumours are a type of kidney cancer that mainly affect children. They are also called nephroblastomas as they develop from cells called nephroblasts. Kidney cancer in children is rare but Wilms tumour is the most common type. About 85 children between the ages of 0 and 14 years are diagnosed with Wilms tumour each year in the UK - mostly children under 5. Rarely, Wilms tumours can develop in older children and very rarely, in adults. Wilms tumours usually only affect one kidney but in fewer than 10 out of 100 children, they can affect both kidneys. The most common symptom is a painless swelling of the abdomen. Parents might notice a lump in the tummy when bathing the baby, or if their child suddenly jumps a nappy size. A healthcare worker might notice a swollen tummy when the child is having a routine appointment. Other less common symptoms include: blood in their wee (urine) pain caused by bleeding inside the tumour loss of appetite raised blood pressure high temperature (fever) weight loss constipation generally feeling unwell being irritable due to their tummy feeling uncomfortable shortness of breath and cough (usually if the cancer has spread to the lungs) Two of the Radford children, Advertisement To which Ellie, 20, agreed: 'Yeah, I think that's why it's so hard to write.' 12 Ellie and Aimee prepared a speech for Sophie's funeral Credit: Channel 5 12 Aimee found saying goodbye "really hard" Credit: Channel 5 Aimee then sobbed: 'Knowing that you're saying a goodbye is really hard.'

Wolfe Tones make major Oasis Croke Park announcement
Wolfe Tones singer Brian Warfield wants to give Oasis a bottle of their whiskey – but poured ice on rumours he'll be a special guest at the band's Irish gigs next month. Liam and Noel Gallagher play Dublin's Croke Park on August 16 and 17. There had been whispers the Manchester rockers, who have strong Irish heritage, had invited The Wolfe Tones to join them on stage. But Brian, 79, told us: 'I heard nothing about it. I did say to MCD if there were any spare tickets going around, I'd like to go and meet the guys.' However, the Celtic Symphony hitmaker – who recently retired – said he plans to send the brothers a bottle of Wolfe Tones whiskey to celebrate their return back to Ireland. Liam Gallagher (L), lead singer and Noel Gallagher (R), singer and guitarist of British rock band Oasis. (Image: AFP via Getty Images) He added: 'I was going to bring them some Wolfe Tone whiskey as a little gift.' Brian recalled how Gallaghers were spotted in the crowds of a Wolfe Tone concert back when they were much younger. He said: 'I saw them when they were at our concerts. They were only kids back then. 'The thing is, we were working very hard over the years. We never got a chance to go to other concerts. 'We would've liked to have gone here and there.' Oasis will be supported by ex-Verve frontman Richard Ashcroft and Cast in Croke Park. He is a long-time friend of the brothers, while Cast opened for Liam on his Definitely Maybe 30th-anniversary tour. Oasis last played in Ireland in 2009 when they headlined Slane Castle.
