Oasis fans react to tickets selling out: “more dates please!!!”

Oasis tickets have unsurprisingly sold out – here’s how fans have reacted on social media.

The brothers announced their reunion on Tuesday (August 27), with Liam and Noel Gallagher set to take to the stage together for the first time in 16 years.

With gigs scheduled for Manchester’s Heaton Park, London’s Wembley Stadium, Cardiff’s Principality Stadium, Dublin’s Croke Park, and Edinburgh’s Murrayfield Stadium (and extra dates announced mid-week due to “unprecedented demand”), fans clawed their way to get tickets on Ticketmaster this morning (August 31) at 9am.

With Ticketmaster crashing shortly before tickets were due to go live and a giant queue to contend with, social media users were left wondering if they’d even get their tickets in the first place. Some that did eventually manage to get through the queue were then disappointed to see the cost of remaining tickets had increased due to Ticketmaster’s dynamic pricing policy.

Elsewhere, some fans complained about being kicked out of the queue after being mistaken for bots, while those attempting to purchase accessible tickets reported being unable to get through to the phone lines, despite some fans calling the designated number over 400 times.

Oasis announced tickets had officially sold out at 7pm today.

Fans on social media have since been reacting, with many hoping for further shows to be announced. One fan on Twitter/X wrote: “more dates please!!!” and another added: “Gutted 😞 no luck I can’t say I didn’t try. Release more dates pleeeeeease.”

Elsewhere, fans are continuing to react to the dynamic pricing that saw tickets jump from around £135 to over £488.

Responding to a post on Twitter/X from Oasis that states tickets can only be resold at face value via Ticketmaster and Twickets, one fan wrote: “Is face value 150 quid or 350 quid.” Another wrote “Face value unless it’s on Ticketmaster? Time to look back in anger.”

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.

Oasis have partnered with resale platform Twickets where fans can buy unwanted tickets for no more than face value (plus booking fees).

The Britpop band announced their mighty return with a slew comeback gigs on Tuesday (August 27). Dubbed Oasis Live ’25, it will see Liam and Noel Gallagher perform on stage together for the first time in 16 years.

Oasis are due to play Manchester’s Heaton Park, London’s Wembley Stadium, Cardiff’s Principality Stadium, Dublin’s Croke Park, and Edinburgh’s Murrayfield Stadium. Extra gigs have also been confirmed for Manchester, London and Edinburgh in response to “unprecedented demand”.

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.

There are whispers of a potential new Oasis album too, and plans are now “underway” for further concerts outside of Europe.
