- 2025 has become the year of the reunion, owing to how many bands are coming together again.
- Be it Oasis, Million Dead or Scissor Sisters, this year looks to be one of absolute nostalgia.
- But which reunion are fans eagerly anticipating the most?
Are Oasis’ 2025 shows the most anticipated reunion show to take place over the next 12 months? After the furore last year over tickets, you’d be fair in your assumption.
However, research undertaken by Parkdean Resorts has suggested that perhaps Oasis are not the ‘biggest’ reunion that fans are looking forward to the most this year - so who does that honour belong to instead?

After 15 years apart, Oasis finally announced their long-awaited reunion in August 2024, selling out all tour dates within 10 hours. With an impressive 149,650 average monthly searches, anticipation for Liam and Noel Gallagher’s return to the stage is at an all-time high.
With 23,115,500 monthly listeners, Aerosmith rounds out the top three most anticipated reunions of 2025. Originally formed in 1970, the legendary rock band made a grand return at a charity event in Los Angeles earlier this month - a thrilling comeback for a group that saw a massive revival in the 1980s.
On a more personal note though, hello to those fellow Million Dead fans who are looking forward to their reunion shows - this one is for you.
