Britpop aficionados have been buzzing with nostalgia and excitement as rumours swirl around what fans are dubbing the Britpop Ceasefire Tour — a speculative world tour that would see Oasis and Blur, two of the biggest icons of the ’90s Britpop era, sharing stages once again. While Oasis has already ignited that spark with their massive Oasis Live ’25 Tour, which marked their first performances together since splitting in 2009 and saw them playing stadiums across Europe, North and South America, Asia and Australia, there’s no official announcement yet from either band about a full-blown joint tour in 2026. �

Oasis’s resurgence in the live music scene has been nothing short of monumental. After reuniting and kicking off their Live ’25 tour in Cardiff, Wales, the Gallaghers and their band played over 40 shows worldwide, bringing classic hits like “Wonderwall” and “Don’t Look Back In Anger” back to live audiences after a 16-year absence. The tour became one of the biggest global concert events of 2025, selling millions of tickets across continents and reminding fans why Oasis were such a defining force in British rock. �

Blur’s involvement in the modern Britpop revival has taken a slightly different shape heading into 2026. Instead of announcing their own conventional tour alongside Oasis, Blur bassist Alex James has unveiled the Britpop Classical tour, where iconic ’90s Britpop songs — including classics from both Blur and Oasis — are being reimagined with full orchestral arrangements across venues throughout the UK. Dates include major halls and summer open-air dates in cities like London, Birmingham, Manchester, Brighton, and Glasgow, offering fans a fresh, elegant way to experience the music that defined a generation. �

Although a Britpop Ceasefire Tour featuring Oasis and Blur together in 2026 has not been officially confirmed, and Oasis’s own camp has suggested they might not be planning another full tour after their huge 2025 run, the spirit of that idea lives on in the way both acts continue to celebrate their legacies and entertain global audiences. With Oasis teasing future live shows and Blur embracing creative reinterpretations of the Britpop catalogue, fans are hopeful that more dates might emerge — potentially culminating in a series of shows spanning the UK, Europe and beyond — in **2026, including **11 March – London, 12 March – Birmingham, 14 March – Manchester, 15 March – Brighton, 17 March – Nottingham, 18 March – Newcastle, 19 March – Glasgow, 21 March – Sheffield, and further summer dates on 13 June, 18 June, 28 June, 17 July and 19 July 2026 as part of the Britpop Classical tour. �
