Glastonbury organiser rules out Oasis headline slot for 2027

Glastonbury Festival co-organiser Emily Eavis has confirmed that Oasis will not headline the 2027 event, directly responding to a fan's request on social media. The denial comes amid widespread speculation that the band might fill a gap in their own tour schedule to close the festival. Eavis replied to a follower on Instagram who wrote, "Please say you've got Oasis," with the message, "Sorry Jimmy, not this time!" This statement aligns with recent comments from the band's frontman, Liam Gallagher. In August 2026, Gallagher posted on X that an Oasis performance at Glastonbury is "not HAPPENING." The speculation had been fueled by the band's newly announced 2027 tour itinerary. Oasis are scheduled to play Manchester's Etihad Stadium on Friday, June 26, and Saturday, June 27, 2027. The closing night of Glastonbury Festival is Sunday, June 27, leaving a conspicuous gap in the band's schedule. However, logistical challenges make a headline slot highly improbable.
