OASIS have announced THREE more UK and Ireland gigs for their epic reunion tour - before the first ones even go on sale.
The legendary rockers announced earlier this week they were reuniting for performances next summer on their Live '25 Tour.
The news of a reunion has driven Oasis fans wild over the last few days, with many taking to social media to share their excitement.
Some die-hard fans have been left worried that they won't be able to get their hands on tickets in time.
But on Thursday morning, Oasis' official Instagram account revealed that additional dates have been added to the tour due to the huge demand.
They wrote: "Due to unprecedented demand, three new UK dates will be added to Oasis Live ‘25.

"Heaton Park - July 16th, Wembley - July 30th, Edinburgh - August 12th.
"Tickets on go on sale this Saturday, 31st August at 9am BST."
Tickets for the shows in Cardiff, Manchester, London, Edinburgh and Dublin go on sale on Saturday morning - after a presale ballot opened on Tuesday for 24 hours until 7pm on Wednesday.
A source said: “These shows will sell out in less than three minutes. Extra dates will be added for sure.”
Music insiders told The Sun how excitement levels between the Gallaghers reached fever-pitch at 8am on Tuesday when an online post confirmed Monday’s Sun story that Oasis were reforming.
Earlier this week Wembley’s famous arches were lit up in blue and white in a nod to Noel and Liam’s devotion to Manchester City.
Noel, 57, was spotted outside a North London studio yesterday. Liam, 51, performed at Sunday night’s Reading Festival.
New photographs of the pair were also published, with insiders telling The Sun the top-secret snaps were taken three weeks ago in London.
A second source said: “Once the deal was signed seven weeks ago, Noel and Liam confirmed they would meet in person for a shoot.
“The shoot happened around three weeks ago and the few people in the room signed non-disclosure agreements to stop it leaking.
“Noel and Liam haven’t had an easy relationship but they were very comfortable with each other.
“They were messing around and having a laugh. You could feel the magic and chemistry. Being with them in that studio felt like being transported back to the 1990s.”
The band’s founder Alan McGee yesterday told Virgin Radio that the brothers’ mum was a major reason for the reunion.
He said: “I’m sure she is behind the whole thing.
“Peggy is great, she is rocking on.”
He added of the brothers: “They’re really professional. I don’t think it (falling out) will be an issue.”
The band start at 74,500-capacity Cardiff Principality Stadium on July 4 and 5.
Next will be 80,000 Heaton Park in hometown Manchester on July 11, 12, 16, 19 and 20.
Oasis will play to 90,000 sellouts at Wembley Stadium on July 25, 26, 30 and August 2 and 3.
Then come Edinburgh’s 67,144-capacity Murrayfield Stadium on August 8, 9, and 12 and Dublin’s 82,300-seater Croke Park on August 16, 17.
On Monday, Spotify revealed that streams of Oasis music had rocketed by 160 per cent globally in a week thanks to fans listening to songs from their eight No1 albums.
Music sources have told The Sun that bands including Fontaines DC and Kasabian are among acts being discussed to open the shows.
A source said: “Opening for Oasis is the hottest ticket in town.

“Talks are ongoing with groups like Fontaines DC and Kasabian, as well as Gene Gallagher’s band Villanelle who opened for Liam’s Definitely Maybe tour.
“As Liam would say, the chance to perform at those shows would be ‘biblical’.”
