Liam Gallagher has definitively quashed persistent rumors that Oasis would be headlining Glastonbury 2027, delivering his signature bluntness in a statement on August 22, 2026. Addressing the speculation directly, Gallagher declared, “It’s not HAPPENING so all you croc wearing flag waving shit cunts can calm the f*** down.”
The fervor around Oasis’s potential Glastonbury appearance had intensified following their successful ‘Live 25 Tour’ reunion in 2025. Reports, notably from The Scotsman, had even placed the legendary band as 4/1 favorites to top the bill for the highly anticipated 2027 festival. However, Glastonbury organizer Emily Eavis recently confirmed a development that further dampens these hopes, stating that all headliners for the 2027 event have already been booked, making an Oasis performance highly unlikely.
This latest denial comes amidst a backdrop of long-standing criticism of the festival from both Gallagher brothers. Liam has previously voiced his disdain for Glastonbury, once describing the iconic Pyramid Stage as being “like playing to a load of jamboree teachers” and made negative comments about the crowd in 2025. His brother, Noel Gallagher, also took aim at Glastonbury a year prior, labeling the event as “woke” and “virtue-signaling.”
Despite ruling out a Glastonbury appearance, whispers continue to circulate regarding other potential Oasis shows for 2027. Fans are keenly awaiting news on possible dates, with Manchester City’s Etihad Stadium and Knebworth being mentioned as rumored venues. Meanwhile, a new documentary, ‘Oasis: Don’t Look Back In Anger,’ chronicling their 2025 reunion tour, is set to hit cinemas on September 9 before becoming available on Disney Plus, offering a retrospective look at their recent return to the stage.
