August 31st 2024.
Finally, after much anticipation, the time has arrived - Oasis general admission tickets are officially available for purchase. The gates will open at 9am BST today, following last night's frantic pre-sale rush. Fans in Dublin can now enter the waiting room for the two shows, adding to the excitement and frenzy surrounding the event.
One eager ticket hopeful, Kev Boland, declared "Let the bloodbath begin" this morning as he scrambled to secure Dublin tickets. However, some fans have taken to social media to express frustration with the Ticketmaster website crashing due to high demand. One fan, @snowflower271, even tagged the ticketing giant at 8:10am to report the issue, saying "50 minutes before Oasis general sale and your website is already crashing." Another fan, Daniel Munarriz, added "Up at 8am and none of the Oasis ticket websites are loading."
With pre-sale tickets already being resold for an astronomical £10,000, these tickets are undoubtedly the hottest in the music industry right now. It's estimated that millions of fans will virtually queue up in hopes of securing a ticket today. It's reminiscent of the legendary Glastonbury ticket battle, and fans are hoping their super speedy Wifi or 5G will give them an edge in the race for tickets.
Upon clicking through to purchase tickets for a specific date, fans will be greeted with a message stating that tickets are currently unavailable. This morning, the Ticketmaster website seemed to crash, causing even more frustration for fans. Despite the chaos, the feuding Gallagher brothers have managed to unite people in their quest to secure tickets for their highly-anticipated reunion.
The pre-sale tickets for Oasis' 2025 UK and Ireland shows went live yesterday evening at 7pm on Ticketmaster, and within minutes, they were being resold on Viagogo for exorbitant prices. However, on the official Ticketmaster website, ticket prices were surprisingly less expensive than predicted, ranging from £74.25 to £506.25 for the pre-show party package. Fans were still left fuming as they sat in virtual queues of over 10,000, trying to get to the front and snag a ticket.
Amidst the chaos, the official Oasis account issued a warning, stating that they had noticed people attempting to sell tickets on the secondary market since the start of the pre-sale. The account reminded fans that tickets can only be resold at face value through Ticketmaster and Twickets, and any tickets sold in breach of the terms and conditions will be canceled by the promoters. However, tickets have also been listed on ticket exchange and reselling websites for thousands of pounds.
On Friday evening, Oasis tickets for their Wembley Stadium show were listed on Viagogo for up to £5,909, while some tickets at the London venue, labeled under "Hospitality Club," were being sold for a shocking £10,578 on StubHub. The brothers famously split in 2009 and have been at odds ever since, until now. The StubHub website claims that all Oasis tickets come with a "FanProtect 100% guarantee for secure purchasing."
Consumer law expert Lisa Webb from Which? strongly advises against purchasing any of the resale tickets currently being listed online at inflated prices. She warns that not only could some of these listings be scams, but even legitimate tickets could be canceled if they are sold outside of the official resale platforms or at a price higher than face value.
Fans have been in a state of panic ever since the feuding brothers announced their reunion tour, which will make stops in Manchester, London, Edinburgh, Cardiff, and Dublin. Leading up to the ticket sale, Oasis revealed that due to "unprecedented demand," three additional gigs have been added to the lineup. These include a show at Heaton Park on July 16, an extra Wembley show on July 30, and another Edinburgh concert on August 12.
The tour is set to kick off next summer, and fans are now hoping that the famously at-loggerheads brothers can remain civil until then, and throughout the highly-anticipated tour. Since their split in 2009, Noel and Liam Gallagher have been hurling insults at each other online and actively denying any rumors of a reunion. So it's a pleasant surprise to have them back together again!
