The former Oasis rocker was quizzed on the hot topic during his headline performance at the festival.

Noel Gallagher has given an update on the possibility Oasis reunion during his headline set at Y Not 2024.

The Manchester rocker played a closing set at the Derbyshire Festival on Sunday (4th August), treating the crowds to a career-spanning set of solo hits and favourites from the Britpop band.

During the show, he was quizzed whether the legendary '90s band would be reuniting and said: "When are we going to see you? In 2025 or 2026? The answer is neither.”

After the crowd booed the Ballad of the Mighty I singer added: "I’ll take the fact that you’re booing as a f*cking compliment!"

Watch the moment it occurred at the festival below:

Noel isn't the only Gallagher who's been talking about a reunion this week, with his nephew Gene revealing that he thinks his dad Liam does want to see it happen.

Asked if the thought Oasis could reform, he told the The Times magazine: "It’s nothing to do with me…I mean, will they? I don’t know."

Quizzed on whether he'd just been sworn to silence, he added: “No. I get the feeling my dad wants it, too. Let’s hope it happens. It’s easier to speak about after a couple of pints".

Gene also confirmed that he "would love" the estranged Gallagher brothers to make it happen and that he'd even joked with Noel's daughter Anaïs about staging an intervention for their dads, but he added that their parents were "too smart for that”.

He added: "She knows what her dad’s like and I know what my dad’s like. Hey, we’re a big happy family everyone.

"It’s nothing to do with us."

Other highlights from Y Not Festival2024 included epic sets from headliners Kaiser Chiefs, Snow Patrol and Jamie T, who topped the bill on the Thursday, Friday and Saturday night respectively.

Stellar performances also took place across the weekend from The Kooks, Declan McKenna, The Vaccines, Jake Bugg, Frank Turner, Katy B, Scouting for Girls, Pale Waves, The View, ADMT, The Snuts, Bleach Lab and SOFY.
