Liam and Noel Gallagher Join Hands at Venice Premiere for Steven Knight’s Oasis Documentary

Liam and Noel Gallagher attended the world premiere of the documentary Oasis: Don’t Look Back in Anger at the 83rd Venice International Film Festival on September 5, 2026.

The brothers, whose 15-year feud famously ended with the announcement of their 2025 reunion tour, arrived at the festival by water taxi. Liam Gallagher described the Venice experience as “Biblical” upon arrival. Despite being present for the premiere, the pair skipped the official festival press conference earlier in the day, appearing for the red carpet and photocall.

Inside ‘Don’t Look Back in Anger’

The documentary, directed by Dylan Southern and Will Lovelace, chronicles the band’s reunion and the “Live ’25” tour. Written by Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight, the project is notable for featuring the first joint interview between the Gallagher brothers in more than 20 years. The film aims to provide an emotional capstone to their return to the stage.

Early reviews from the festival have described the film as a powerfully nostalgic homage to the band’s legacy. While the premiere focused on their current unity, the documentary explores their reconciliation.

Theatrical and Streaming Release

Fans who were not in Venice will not have to wait long to see the film. Oasis: Don’t Look Back in Anger is scheduled for a global theatrical release on September 11, 2026, including a run in IMAX and select cinemas.

The film’s focus on the “Live ’25” tour provides a behind-the-scenes look at the logistics and emotional weight of one of the most anticipated reunions in rock history. The Venice premiere marks the first time the brothers have shared a public stage in a non-musical capacity since their 2009 split, reinforcing the narrative of a lasting peace between the siblings.
