Oasis Returns to Chicago: Live ’25 Tour Hits Soldier Field Thursday

CHICAGO, IL — After 16 years away, Oasis is officially back in the United States. The Gallagher brothers’ long-awaited Live ’25 Tour comes to Soldier Field on Thursday, August 28, marking the band’s only Midwest stop and one of just three U.S. cities included on their reunion tour.

A Historic Return

The Chicago date follows Oasis’ sold-out reunion shows across the UK and Ireland — including five nights at Wembley Stadium — and their North American kickoff in Toronto earlier this week. For Chicago fans, the Soldier Field show offers a once-in-a-generation chance to hear Liam and Noel Gallagher reunite on stage for hits like “Wonderwall,” “Live Forever,” and “Champagne Supernova.”

North American Tour Schedule

After Chicago, Oasis will play:

  • MetLife Stadium (East Rutherford, NJ) — Aug. 31 & Sept. 1 (Labor Day weekend)
  • Rose Bowl Stadium (Pasadena, CA) — Sept. 6 & Sept. 7
  • Estadio GNP Seguros (Mexico City) — Sept. 12 & Sept. 13

The band will then return to London’s Wembley Stadium for two more nights before continuing the world tour through Asia, Australia, and South America this fall.

Why Soldier Field Matters

The Soldier Field stop carries symbolic weight: Oasis last played Chicago in the early 2000s, during their touring peak, but the band split in 2009 amid ongoing tensions. Their return reflects not only a repaired bond between Liam and Noel but also the enduring popularity of Britpop’s defining act.

For many fans in Chicago, this will be the first time seeing the brothers together on U.S. soil since the Dig Out Your Soul tour nearly two decades ago.

Tickets and Demand

Tickets for the Soldier Field concert sold out within minutes. Resale platforms still list limited passes, with demand reflecting Oasis’ rare U.S. appearances. With only five American dates in total, Chicago is expected to draw fans from across the Midwest eager to witness the reunion.

A Night of Anthems

While the exact setlist hasn’t been released, fans can expect a career-spanning mix of Oasis’ greatest hits alongside deeper cuts beloved by long-time followers. Given the Toronto show included “Live Forever” and “Don’t Look Back in Anger,” Soldier Field promises equally emotional sing-alongs under the Chicago skyline.

For fans lucky enough to secure tickets, Oasis at Soldier Field represents more than a concert — it’s the return of one of rock’s most iconic bands to a city that has always embraced their swagger and sound. For more tour coverage and live reviews, follow ChicagoMusicGuide.com.
