Oasis Rock Hall induction: Liam and Noel to skip ceremony

The brothers have different reasons

This is the third year running that the band have been nominated, as part of a class that also features Iron Maiden, Billy Idol, Wu-Tang Clan, Sade, Phil Collins, Luther Vandross and Joy Division/New Order.

The ceremony this year falls on Saturday 14 November.

As they will not attend, neither brother is expected to physically collect the honour.

It was on X (formerly Twitter) where Liam explained himself.

His message confirming the no-show said it was “too far to be going for the night”.

Further, he added that he had “shit to do” over Christmas.

For major reunions, the latest lands in a year already shaped by the backlash over UK gig ticket prices.

The Oasis Rock Hall snub, explained

For Liam, the contempt for the ceremony is hardly new, as has never hidden it even in the past.

Following Oasis's first nomination in 2024, he called the organisation “full of BUMBACLARTS”.

And then, just a year later, he dismissed the process as “a load of bollox” and declared it was “for WANKERS”.

But when it comes to this year, the big difference is that he thanked those who had voted, calling the nomination “a real honour” and signing off with “LG x”.

Back in April he had briefly reconsidered, telling fans his mother had urged him to “stop being a dick” about the honour.

But Christmas commitments had clearly taken priority over the ceremony by November.

Noel Gallagher's plans for the night

On the other hand, Noel will be in London instead, performing as part of Goldie's run of shows at the EFG London Jazz Festival.

For Noel, this will be the first solo outing since Oasis wrapped their Live '25 reunion tour last year.

For the brothers, the clash means that they will mark the induction from opposite ends of the country, and in entirely different genres.

When is the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame ceremony?

Saturday 14 November.

This year's class also features Joy Division/New Order, Phil Collins, Sade, Wu-Tang Clan, Billy Idol and Luther Vandross alongside Oasis.

Why are Oasis skipping the ceremony?

For Liam, the trip clashes with his Christmas plans.

Meanwhile, that same night, Noel is already committed to performing with Goldie in London.
