After 15 long years, Oasis could be returning to Rome. Italian media reports suggest the newly-reunited British rock band may play in the Italian capital in 2026, fueling excitement among fans across the country. The band, renowned for hits like “Wonderwall” and “Don’t Look Back in Anger,” recently announced a much-anticipated reunion tour for 2025, focusing initially on the UK and Ireland.
Now, Alessandro Onorato, Rome’s councillor for major events, sport, tourism, and fashion, has confirmed that the Eternal City is angling to be included in the band’s European tour the following year. While the possibility remains speculative, the news has stirred hope among the band’s Italian fan base.
Oasis last performed in Rome in February 2009, when brothers Noel and Liam Gallagher played at the PalaLottomatica, six months before the band’s infamous breakup. Fans still vividly recall that performance and have long yearned for a reunion.
For now, whether Oasis will indeed grace the city in 2026 remains uncertain, but Onorato appears confident in Rome’s bid. When asked about potential venues, Onorato told Fanpage: “It doesn’t matter much whether it’s the Circus Maximus or the Stadio Olimpico, the important thing is that they come to Rome.”
Speculation is rife that the band could perform at the Circus Maximus, a historical venue that has recently hosted global acts including Bruce Springsteen, Måneskin, Guns N’ Roses, and Travis Scott.
The anticipation isn’t limited to Rome, though. Just across the border, Oasis fans in Trieste would also be thrilled by the possibility of the band’s return to Italy. The coastal city, with its rich cultural history, has long been a hotspot for major concerts and events, and fans there are already hoping for a chance to welcome the Gallaghers back. A visit to Trieste could provide a unique opportunity for the band to connect with its Italian fans beyond Rome, broadening the scope of their European revival.
As Oasis fans in both Rome and Trieste eagerly await confirmation, one thing is certain: if the band does make their return to Italy, it will be nothing short of monumental.
