Oasis tribute acts in the UK: the complete guide

For sixteen years, Oasis tribute bands were the only way to hear "Live Forever" played live by a band in parka jackets. Then, in summer 2025, Liam and Noel Gallagher reunited for the Oasis Live '25 tour, their first shows since the band split in 2009. Demand was so high that extra dates were added in Manchester, London and Edinburgh.

The reunion didn't kill the tribute circuit. If anything, it reminded a whole new audience how much they love the songs. Tribify currently lists 7 Oasis tributes.

The long-runners: Definitely Mightbe

Definitely Mightbe bill themselves as the longest-established Oasis tribute, now more than a decade in. They play academies and clubs rather than seated theatres, which suits the material: this is music for a standing crowd.

Theatre or terrace?

Most Oasis tributes play standing venues, with beer, bucket hats and a crowd that sings every word. That's the point. If you want a seat, check the venue before you book: a few acts do play theatres, but an Oasis gig is rarely a sit-down affair.

What to look for

• Liam's stance. Hands behind the back, chin up to the mic. A good Liam gets the attitude right as well as the voice.
• The wall of guitars. Oasis records are loud and layered. A tribute needs two guitars and real volume to get close.
• Noel's songs. A proper show gives Noel his acoustic moment: "Don't Look Back in Anger" or "Half the World Away".
• The B-sides. "The Masterplan" and "Acquiesce" are fan favourites. If they're in the set, you're in good hands.
