Oasis confirm full line up for huge UK gigs as another support act announced

Oasis have announced another support act for the UK leg of next year's huge worldwide tour, completing the line up as the '90s legends make their return to Cardiff. Oasis will return to the stage in July 2025, marking their long-awaited reunion in Cardiff with sold out gigs on July 4 and 5.

Back in August brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher confirmed the Britpop band’s reunion and subsequent worldwide tour in 2025, saying “The great wait is over.” Weeks later, fans were left disappointed when tickets went on sale as demand vastly outstripped supply, with hundreds of thousands of people missing out.

The relationship between Oasis and Cast have always been innately intertwined. Even before forming the band, Liam had been a huge fan of lead singer John Power's previous group The La’s and rated them as equal to The Stone Roses. John and the Gallaghers were soon acquaintances. It was around this time that Oasis offered Cast a support slot after admiring John’s demos which became their debut album ‘All Change’. That show was where Cast were spotted and then promptly signed by Polydor.

Cast went on to play at numerous legendary Oasis gig highlights, from Paris to Irving Beach, Loch Lomond to Knebworth. After the announcement John Power said: “I’m blown away at the reunion. Oasis are the voice of a generation and the songs that they wrote and sung were and still are the soundtrack to many people’s dreams. They are the people’s band.

"I’ve known Noel and Liam all through the years, we go way back. It’s been some ride, some journey. I’ve felt and known their music personally, as a fan. It inspired me as songwriter, it blew the whole scene open like nothing before and it reached way beyond the stratosphere. Everything changed. We were all part of that and we will all be part of this. I’m especially looking forward to revisiting my family’s Irish roots when the tour hits Dublin. Let the opening chords shimmer and shine next July.” Find out about the latest events in Wales by signing up to our What's On newsletter here
