The second of Oasis‘s two Stade de France dates next summer may not go ahead, according to a report in Le Parisien, three days after the band announced its 2027 tour.
The paper reports that the July 24 show clashes with long-planned engineering work on rail lines between Île-de-France and Hauts-de-France, and that Paris prefect Georges-François Leclerc has written twice to Christophe Cizeron, president of GL Events and of the Société d’exploitation du Stade de France, asking him not to authorise a concert that day.
A source told the paper that alternative dates have been put to Live Nation France, and was blunt about where the decision sits: “The prefect has the final say in these kinds of cases. If he says it’s not possible, then it’s not possible.”
Neither show currently appears on the Stade de France website.
Angelo Gopee, who runs Live Nation France, rejected the report.
“We wouldn’t have announced and put these dates on sale if we hadn’t had the necessary approvals a long time ago,” he told Le Parisien. “This tour has been in the works for a year, and we’ve had the green light. There’s no issue!”
Cizeron‘s involvement follows a change at the venue. GL Events took over the running of the Stade de France in August 2025, and the stadium has since booked its busiest concert calendar on record.
The first date, on July 23, would be Oasis‘ first concert in Paris since the night the band ended.
Noel Gallagher walked out after a backstage row with his brother at Rock en Seine in August 2009, minutes before they were due on stage. “It’s with some sadness and great relief to tell you that I quit Oasis tonight,” he said in a statement afterwards. “People will write and say what they like, but I simply could not go on working with [singer, his brother] Liam a day longer.”
The band alluded to it themselves last week. The teaser announcing the Paris shows showed a man eating a plum and throwing it away, a reference to Noel‘s account of the argument, in which he said Liam threw a plum at him and swung a guitar like an axe.
The 2027 run is being sold through registration rather than a general on-sale, the same method used for the later Wembley dates in 2025.
Registration closes at 4pm BST today, September 17, 5pm CEST, 11am ET and 8am PT. Successful applicants receive a code and an allocated purchase window, with UK sales running across Friday 25, Saturday 26 and Sunday 27 September. There is no other route to a ticket.
Standard prices are fixed between £71.50 and £266.60 including fees.
The “Live ’27” run opens at Celtic Park in Glasgow in May, takes in eleven nights at the Etihad Stadium in Manchester and four at Knebworth, and includes only two North American cities, Boston and Las Vegas.
Its predecessor set a high bar. The “Live ’25” tour ran 41 shows across 14 countries between July and November last year, drew 2.89 million people and took $525.3 million. Noel has said the new one will be “so much better”.
Two other loose ends have been tidied since the announcement. Beck told NME that drummer Joey Waronker will be touring with the band again, after speculation that he had been dropped. And the documentary “Oasis: Don’t Look Back In Anger” reached cinemas this month, ahead of the teaser campaign that ended with a drone display over the Etihad.
