Oasis Live 2025: fans are still managing to get UK tickets despite lengthy queues

Oasis fans are still managing to get tickets for UK shows, almost seven hours after the UK dates went on sale at 9am BST.

Fans have faced a difficult morning trying to get tickets to the highly anticipated Oasis shows, that were announced earlier this week.

The Britpop band unveiled a huge run of comeback gigs on Tuesday (August 27), dubbed Oasis Live ’25. Set to take place next summer, the trek will see Liam and Noel Gallagher perform on stage together for the first time in 16 years.

Tickets for the gigs went on sale this morning at 9am here for (UK), and here (Ireland). Ahead of the sale, fans online reported issues with both Ticketmaster’s main website and the app apparently “crashing” as they received “503” errors – alongside long queues just to access the site, such was the demand for tickets.

Some fans were also left frustrated today following Ticketmaster’s controversial dynamic pricing system whilst attempting to buy tickets.

One fan shared their attempt to get tickets to Dublin’s Croke Park show, writing: “In demand standing ticket” is just a standard standing ticket except double the price. No difference between Ticketmaster and touts.” When ticket prices were revealed by pre-sale for Ireland, tickets started at €86.50. However, this fan shared a screenshot showing the tickets were going for €415.50 each.

Ticketmaster have clarified on their website previously that tickets that are “market-priced” “may increase or decrease at any time, based on demand. This is similar to how airline tickets and hotel rooms are sold.” NME has reached out to Ticketmaster for comment.

While tickets for Dublin’s shows have now sold out, ones for UK shows are still available even though now, all of the tour dates for Oasis have been flagged as having “low availability” on Ticketmaster. See the dates below and get any remaining tickets here.

Ticketmaster has outlined its strict rules for purchasing tickets – confirming that customers will only be able to order four tickets per date, per household and card. Additionally, Oasis have partnered with resale platform Twickets where fans can buy unwanted tickets for no more than face value (plus booking fees).

Oasis have also warned fans that “people attempting to sell tickets on the secondary market” will have them “cancelled by the promoters” in a bid to combat tickets being sold at inflated prices. 

In other news, there are whispers of a potential new Oasis album, and plans are now “underway” for further concerts outside of Europe, although no details about these have emerged at the time of writing.

There is currently talk about which previous Oasis members could be joining Liam and Noel on the road in 2025, with co-founder Paul ‘Bonehead’ Arthurs reportedly on board.

Fans have also been revisiting the group’s final setlist from 2009 to get an idea of what they might play next year. See NME’s dream setlist for the forthcoming massive gigs here.

Oasis Live ’25 is reportedly set to make an eye-watering £400million, and will follow the extended ‘Definitely Maybe’ 30th anniversary reissue, which was released yesterday (Friday August 30).

In a brief joint statement to announce their long-awaited return, Oasis said: “The guns have fallen silent. The stars have aligned. The great wait is over. Come see. It will not be televised.”

Meanwhile, details have emerged about Liam and Noel’s top secret reunion photoshoot– where a new press shot of the formerly estranged brothers was captured. “For their fans to see them together again will be an amazing sight,” a source explained. “The atmosphere in the room was fizzing, it was electric.”
