The Gallagher brothers have hit back at the rumours that they are set to return to the Hertfordshire grounds.

Oasis have denied claims that they have plans to play Knebworth Park in 2026.

After Liam and Noel Gallagher previously announced the Oasis reunion tour for 2025, it was rumoured that the brothers could be set to relive the era-defining shows, which saw them play to 250,000 fans over two nights at the Hertfordshire site in August 1996.

A source told The Sun newspaper's Bizarre column: "A return to Knebworth sounds like a pipe dream but it’s now something that is being considered by Noel and Liam.

“They are fully committed to their comeback next year and want to see how they gel first before making this idea a reality.

“Noel and Liam know that going back to Knebworth would be iconic and given the massive demand for tickets to the reunion tour, they know it would sell."

However, the Britpop legends have come out to refute the claims, writing on social media: "Contrary to reports in some UK tabloid media today, Oasis will not be playing Knebworth Park in the future.

"There are no plans for any further UK dates beyond the currently announced UK stadium tour."

Although fans may be disappointed by the news, it hasn't been too long since they were able to relive the glory dates of 1996, since Liam Gallagher played his own duo of solo shows there on the 3rd and 4th June 2022.

Meanwhile, Oasis fans are eagerly awaiting to hear if they've been successful in securing a chance to buy tickets to the Manchester band's two extra dates at Wembley Stadium.

The two dates, which are due to take place at the iconic venue on 27th and 28th September 2025, came after a "phenomenal demand" for tickets saw the band's run of shows in London, Manchester, Cardiff, Edinburgh and Dublin sell out on Saturday 31st August.

After sending out invitations to previously unsuccessful fans to enter a new ballot, Oasis have confirmed that successful applicants will receive an email from Oasismynet with their code no later than 9pm BST this Friday, 13th September with full details and timings for the upcoming sale.
