Is the new Oasis teaser telling us they’re playing a Manchester residency?
Fans have been analysing a series of cryptic teaser videos posted on Oasis's official social media accounts, sparking speculation about a possible 2027 tour that would follow the band's successful "Live '25" reunion shows. Clues in the clips, including football imagery, a tally of goals, and a small blue moon, have led many to believe the band are confirming a 12-night residency at Manchester's Etihad Stadium, home of Manchester City, a club with which the Gallagher brothers have long-standing ties.
The first video, posted on 3 September, showed two boys in a chip shop with numbers on flyers that matched the coordinates of Celtic Park in Glasgow. A second clip released the following day depicted boys playing football against a wall, with a tally of 11 goals followed by a final, 12th goal, fuelling theories about the Etihad residency, while a T-shirt resembling 1996 Knebworth merchandise visible in the background has also prompted guesses about a possible return to that venue. The speculation comes ahead of Liam and Noel Gallagher's joint appearance at the Venice premiere of the documentary "Don't Look Back In Anger" on 5 September, which chronicles their reunion and is due in cinemas on 9 September ahead of a later Disney+ release.

Oasis are a Manchester rock band formed by brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher. They became one of Britain’s best-known groups in the 1990s, with songs such as “Wonderwall”, and split in 2009 after years of public tensions between the brothers.
The band reunited for the “Live ’25” shows, bringing their music back to large audiences. Manchester City and its Etihad Stadium have a long association with the Gallagher brothers, who are supporters of the club; Knebworth, meanwhile, was the site of two major Oasis concerts in 1996.
That history gives fans’ interpretations of the teaser videos some context. A Manchester residency would mean a run of concerts in one venue, while references to other places could point to different plans; the clips alone do not establish what the band intends.
