Liam Gallagher Denies Oasis Will Headline Glastonbury 2027

His blunt rejection pits the band's public stance against promoter moves and betting chatter that keep large-scale shows a live possibility.

Overview

  • Liam Gallagher posted an expletive-filled denial on X that Oasis will play Glastonbury 2027, a message widely reported on Saturday and aimed at fans sharing bookmaker odds.
  • Bookmakers have placed Oasis among the frontrunners for the Pyramid Stage with odds reported at 4/1, a position that helped fuel the recent speculation.
  • Glastonbury organiser Emily Eavis told BBC Radio 4 that three headliners for 2027 are already chosen and explicitly ruled out Madonna, leaving the line-up otherwise undisclosed.
  • Promoter SJM Concerts obtained a premises licence for Knebworth House on August 1 that allows events up to 125,000 capacity with live music until 3am, a fact media outlets link to possible multi-night shows or stadium residencies though no dates are confirmed.
  • Public tension over Glastonbury is longstanding because both Gallagher brothers have criticised the festival in recent years and a documentary about the 2025 reunion will screen from 9 September, which may keep the debate and speculation alive.
