Oasis to play two shows at Johan Cruijff Arena next July

Oasis has confirmed two concerts at the Johan Cruijff Arena in Amsterdam on July 16 and 17, 2025. Fans must register by September 17 for a chance to be selected for the ticket purchasing queue.

British rock band Oasis has announced two highly anticipated concert dates in the Netherlands as part of their reunion tour. Liam and Noel Gallagher are scheduled to perform at the Johan Cruijff Arena in Amsterdam on July 16 and 17, 2025. This return to the country follows a long absence, as the band last performed in the Netherlands in 2009 at the Heineken Music Hall. The announcement comes after a successful series of reunion shows across the United Kingdom and Ireland, where demand for tickets reached unprecedented levels.

Fans interested in attending the Amsterdam concerts must register via the band's official website before September 17 at 5:00 PM. Access to the ticket sale will be determined through a random selection process, with regular ticket prices ranging from approximately 84 to 252 euros. VIP packages are also being offered. The tour reflects a significant resurgence for the group, who previously faced a fractured relationship between the brothers that effectively ended their peak era following historic performances in the mid-nineties.
