5 Best Moments as Oasis Open North American Leg of Live ’25 Reunion Tour in Toronto

The last time Oasis played Canada, they left on a sour note.

At Virgin Festival on Toronto Islands in 2008, Noel Gallagher was attacked by an intoxicated fan, who pushed him into a speaker and broke three of his ribs. It turned out to be their final time in the country, as Noel and his brother and band co-leader Liam Gallagher had a bitter sibling rivalry that took well over a decade to resolve.

Now, nearly 17 years later, they’ve returned to Toronto on a much higher note: reunited for the blockbuster Oasis Live ’25 tour, beginning the North American tour at Rogers Stadium. Oasis was one of the first acts announced for the 50,000-capacity outdoor venue, and they made it count on night 1 on Sunday (August 24), delivering a packed setlist of fan-favorites despite a downpour of rain that lasted for the second half of the concert.

“You have one last chance to prove that you loved us all along,” Oasis told North America in a billboard before announcing the tour.

Toronto showed they definitely have.

Liam and Noel Gallagher were joined by Paul “Bonehead” Arthurs (guitar), Gem Archer (guitar), Andy Bell (bass) and Joey Waronker (drums).
