A Long-Awaited Homecoming
This marks Oasis’s first New Jersey appearance in nearly two decades, last seen here before their breakup in 2009. Since announcing their reunion earlier this year, the Gallaghers’ tour has been met with unprecedented demand. In fact, more than 14 million people tried to buy tickets for the initial UK and Ireland dates—a staggering figure that underscores just how massive this comeback truly is.
The band’s North American leg kicked off in Toronto with back-to-back sold-out shows, and MetLife is next in line. These shows also carry extra weight: they are Oasis’s first U.S. stadium performances ever.
Tickets: What to Know
While the initial allotments sold out quickly, tickets remain available on the resale market. Current prices:
- Upper-level seats: starting around $274 (with fees)
- Floor seats: starting at approximately $523 (with fees)
Tickets can be found via Ticketmaster, StubHub, and Vivid Seats. Prices are subject to change as demand remains extremely high, so fans are encouraged to check regularly.

To give fans a taste of what’s coming, Oasis recently released official live footage of “Wonderwall” filmed in Dublin on August 20, 2025. The performance shows the band in top form, bringing their classics to life in front of tens of thousands.
Other official clips from the tour include “Slide Away” (Cardiff), “Cigarettes & Alcohol” (Manchester), and “Little By Little” (London). These videos only heighten anticipation for the New Jersey shows.
The return of Oasis is more than just a concert—it’s a cultural moment. For longtime fans in New Jersey, MetLife Stadium will be the place where nostalgia meets history as the Gallagher brothers bring their Britpop anthems back to the stage.
