Oasis have issued a warning to fans who are hoping to buy tickets for their UK shows in 2025.

However, now that the pre-sale for tickets has been and gone, the band has warned fans about buying tickets “on the secondary market”.
Some people have bought tickets in the pre-sale and re-listed them for thousands of pounds on unofficial reselling sites.

Oasis warns fans about resale tickets
A post to the band’s X, formerly Twitter, page said: “We have noticed people attempting to sell tickets on the secondary market since the start of the pre-sale.
“Please note, tickets can ONLY be resold, at face value, via @Ticketmaster and @Twickets.
“Tickets sold in breach of the terms and conditions will be cancelled by the promoters.”
Tickets are officially being sold via Ticketmaster, GigsAndTours and See Tickets, however, the band’s reunion concert tickets have also been relisted on ticket exchange and reselling websites for thousands of pounds.
On Friday evening (August 30), Oasis tickets for Wembley Stadium were listed on Viagogo for up to £5,909 while some tickets at the London venue listed under “Hospitality Club” were on sale for £10,578 on StubHub.

The StubHub website says all Oasis tickets “come with our FanProtect 100% guarantee for secure purchasing.”
Lisa Webb, consumer law expert at Which?, said: “We’d strongly advise against buying any of the resale tickets currently popping up online at inflated prices.
“Not only is there a chance that some of these listings could be scam attempts, but even legitimate tickets could be cancelled, rendering them invalid, if they are sold outside of the official resale platforms or at above face value.”
How much do Oasis tickets cost?
Prices for a seat to watch the band at London’s Wembley Stadium begin at £74.25 with the most expensive ticket a £506.25 pre-show party, exhibition and seated package.
The cheapest seats are at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium shows which will set you back £73 and Edinburgh’s Murrayfield Stadium at £74, according to Manchester-based promoter SJM Concerts, which runs the website Gigs And Tours.
Standing tickets at Wembley will cost fans £151.25 with the same tickets in Cardiff and Edinburgh slightly cheaper at £150 and £151 respectively.
In the band’s home city of Manchester, tickets start from £148.50 with only standing available alongside a number of hospitality and luxury packages.
Before the announcement for the UK shows, Irish promoter MCD said on its website that the price of both of the Croke Park gigs in Dublin will start at 86.50 euros (£72.75) without booking fees.

When is the Oasis general sale for tickets?
Fans looking to buy tickets in the general sale don’t have long to wait.
Tickets for the band’s 15 UK shows in London, Manchester, Edinburgh and Cardiff are to go on general sale at 9am today (August 31) while the sale for their two Dublin gigs will launch at 8am via Ticketmaster, GigsAndTours and See Tickets.
On Friday evening (August 30), the band asked fans whether they were “ready” for the sale and said it is “essential” to be logged into the “relevant ticketing agencies ahead of the general sale.”
The band had to reassure fans earlier in the week that confirmation emails would be sent to those who had entered the pre-sale ballot after they claimed to receive an “unprecedented volume” of interest.
