Oasis Live ’25 Tour Bans Tambourine and Maracas Tosses After Fan Scuffles

Promoters cited dangerous scrambles over tossed instruments, prompting new crowd-safety measures on the ongoing stadium trek.

Overview

  • Liam Gallagher announced at Murrayfield Stadium that he has been barred from tossing his tambourine and maracas after being told fans were injuring one another in scuffles.
  • The prohibition follows reports of injuries including cuts and bruises sustained by a 42-year-old fan at Wembley who was wrestled by two men over caught maracas.
  • Promoters and venue operators have reinforced barriers, increased policing and boosted transport services to manage safety for near-sold-out crowds.
  • The Live ’25 reunion continues with two shows at Dublin’s Croke Park on August 16 and 17 before the North American leg begins later this month.
  • The tour’s heightened scrutiny also reflects separate reports of a fan’s hotel-room death before Murrayfield and an earlier fatality at Wembley.
