If you’ve ever wanted to see the Eagles in their full glory, 2025 might be your last chance to witness their magic live.
Papa Roach
Papa Roach is gearing up for a big year in 2025. With their landmark album Infest turning 25, it’s the perfect time for the band to celebrate. Frontman Jacoby Shaddix has already hinted at an anniversary tour, promising to bring nostalgic hits and new material to the stage.

Oasis
The Oasis Live ’25 Tour is shaping to be one of the most anticipated reunions in recent history. After years of speculation and hopes from die-hard fans, the Gallagher brothers are finally reuniting for a tour to celebrate the 30th anniversary of their debut album, Definitely Maybe. This marks Oasis’s first live performance since their split in 2009, and fans are eager to witness the magic that propelled them to Britpop stardom.
The tour will start with dates across the UK and Ireland, including multiple shows at iconic venues like Wembley Stadium and Heaton Park. The demand for tickets has been through the roof, with several additional dates already added due to overwhelming fan interest. Expect to hear all the hits that made Oasis a household name, from “Wonderwall” to “Don’t Look Back in Anger.” The Live ’25 Tour is not just about the music—it’s a cultural moment that will be discussed for years.
Pantera
Pantera is back and ready to conquer Europe in early 2025, kicking off its tour in Helsinki, Finland, and hitting major cities across the continent. With original members Philip Anselmo and Rex Brown joined by heavyweights Zakk Wylde and Charlie Benante, the band has reignited the flame of 1990s heavy metal, delivering bone-crushing performances that remind fans why Pantera is one of the genre’s most influential acts.
This tour will display the band’s aggressive sound and powerful stage presence, allowing fans to hear tracks like “Walk” and “Cowboys from Hell” live. After years away from the spotlight, Pantera’s return has been eagerly awaited by fans across the globe. While the European leg of the tour is set for early 2025, there’s a strong chance they’ll bring their thunderous show to other continents later in the year, so keep an eye out for more dates.
Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds
After a long hiatus from North American stages, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds will return in spring 2025 with a tour across the United States and Canada. During this tour, known for their haunting, poetic lyrics and intense live performances, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds will promote their latest album, Wild God. It will mark their first North American show since 2018, after they were forced to cancel earlier tours due to the pandemic.
Fans of the band know that a Nick Cave concert is an emotional journey. With songs like “Red Right Hand” and “Into My Arms,” Nick Cave brings a raw and mesmerizing presence to the stage that captivates audiences.
