New Oasis reunion tour cities ‘revealed as band adds 13 more shows’
THE highly anticipated Oasis reunion tour will include 13 international cities, it has been announced.
Last month, it was revealed Oasis will be reuniting for shows in the UK and Ireland.
Running through next summer, these are expected to rake in £400million – and will not be televised.
It has been confirmed that the group will also play gigs overseas.
Per NME, the 13 cities include Boston, Los Angeles, Chicago and New Rutherford in the United States.
Also among the line-up is Toronto, Canada and Mexico City, Mexico.
Oasis will additionally be performing in Australia, namely Sydney and Melbourne.
Further shows are set to be held in Tokyo, Japan and Seoul, South Korea.
Rounding the list off is gigs in Sao Paulo, Brazil, Santiago, Chile and Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Dates, venues and ticket sale details are to be announced at a later date.
The eagerly awaited Stateside concerts will mark the first time the Gallagher brothers have performed together in the US since 2008.
A source previously said: “It’s going to be a handful of massive dates in major cities.
“Brits living in New York and Los Angeles should have a decent chance at getting themselves a ticket.
“Oasis don’t want a repeat of the issues they had with tickets for their home gigs but they are expecting the same huge demand they saw here.”
The high demand for the band’s return has seen sold out gigs at Wembley.
Tickets in Cardiff, Dublin, Edinburgh and Manchester were also quickly snapped up.
Meanwhile, the reconciliation of Noel and Liam Gallagher took the music world by surprise.
