    Oasis tipped to play major Irish venue as reunion rumors swell 15 years post split and brothers share cryptic video

    Oasis are tipped to perform at Croke Park amid rumours of a reunion 15 years after their split. Fans have been sent into a frenzy after Noel and Liam Gallagher hinted at a surprise comeback.

    The brothers shared a cryptic post on their social media accounts and the band's website. The siblings shared a brief video in the style of the band's logo that read: "27.08.24. 8am."

    Boylesports, the bookmakers, now predict Croke Park as the 8/15 odds-on favorite to be the chosen venue for an Oasis comeback gig in Ireland .

    Next year marks the 30th anniversary of the iconic album '(What's The Story) Morning Glory?' and recent media reports suggest Oasis are planning 20 live shows across London and their hometown of Manchester.

    While Croke Park is expected to host the band in Ireland , Wembley is the 8/11 favourite to be the first venue for the Oasis reunion gigs, with Manchester's Heaton Park a close second favourite at 5/4.

    The bookies also predict it's just 6/4 that Oasis will perform over eight concerts at Wembley , which would surpass Taylor Swift's eight-concert Eras Tour record. It's a near-certain 2/9 that Oasis will headline Glastonbury next year .

    When it comes to what tune the band will choose to open with, Rock N Roll Star is the 2/1 favourite with BoyleSports to top the band's 2025 setlist, with Be Here Now (4/1) and Roll With It (5/1) also in the running.

    "It's expected that the brothers will keep their most iconic tunes like Wonderwall and Whatever until later in the set with both belters chalked up at 25/1," said Sharon McHugh, a spokeswoman for BoyleSports.

    "Excitement is reaching boiling point with an Oasis reunion now looking more likely than ever."

    The Gallagher brothers' mother is from Co Mayo and father is from Co Meath . The pair have maintained a strong connection to their roots through their "angel" of a mother, Peggy.

    The boys were raised Catholic, and Noel played Gaelic football as a teen. In an autobiography published by Oasis in 2021, the older brother claimed their Irish upbringing made the band what it was .
