Oasis are set to publish a new photography book titled Oasis Live ’25 Opus, documenting their recent reunion tour.

The tour, which spanned multiple continents, has already established itself as one of the defining live events of recent years. Beginning in Cardiff, it moved through Manchester and London before heading to international stops including Los Angeles, Japan and South America, eventually returning to the UK.

While there are currently no plans for further live shows in 2026, the band are preparing a detailed visual record of that run. Oasis Live ’25 Opus brings together more than 1000 images captured by photographer Simon Emmett, who was granted extensive access throughout the tour.

Emmett, who also took the first photograph of Liam Gallagher and Noel Gallagher together in 16 years, documented both the scale of the performances and the atmosphere surrounding them. His work aims to reflect not only the audience’s response, but also the dynamic within the band and crew.

“When I saw the reaction to the photo, it was obvious to me that this wasn’t a single event,” he says. “The photograph was the beginning of something. I felt strongly that this needed to be documented.”

He describes the project as an attempt to capture the authenticity of the experience.

“There was no facade, this was genuine. We watched the crowd having the time of their lives, but the band and the crew are also having equally as good a time. That’s what was so magical about it.”

Created in collaboration with Liam and Noel Gallagher, the book is positioned as a comprehensive visual account of the tour, focusing on both its scale and its emotional impact.

Published by Opus, Oasis Live ’25 Opus is set to ship from May 2026.
