Everything you need to know about the Oasis tickets pre-sale

Must read

Oasis fans are now steeling themselves for the inevitable feeding frenzy when tickets to the band’s 2025 reunion tour go on sale this weekend.

The British rock band announced their long-awaited reunion on Tuesday (27 August), with brothers Noel and Liam Gallagher set to join one another onstage for the first time since their split in 2009.

Tickets are going on general sale on Saturday 31 August, with a pre-sale open to fans who successfully made it through a ballot from 7pm to 10pm BST this evening.

The pre-sale ballot of tickets comes before the general sale and will take place from 7pm until 10pm.

Registration for the ballot initially closed at 7pm BST on Wednesday 28 August. Fans who applied had to fill out their contact details and answer a general knowledge question about the band.

However, the band announced on Thursday (29 August): “Due to a last minute surge in pre-sale ballot entries, a number of confirmation emails are still being processed and sent out.

“The deadline to confirm your entry has now been extended to 10am BST tomorrow morning (Friday 30th August). If successful in the ballot, you will be contacted tomorrow by 5pm BST with pre-sale access information. Thank you for your patience.”

Success in the ballot does not necessarily guarantee tickets, which will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis.

Oasis have said that the ballot was set up to “ensure the maximum number of fans have a fair opportunity to access tickets”.

The band behind hits such as “Champagne Supernova”, “Rock’n’Roll Star” and “Cigarettes and Alcohol” also warned that emails confirming people have registered might be slow to arrive, due to the “extremely high volume of entries”.

Successful applicants received a confirmation email on Friday afternoon informing them of the pre-sale time, as well as sharing the unique code they need to access it.

A seat to watch the band at London’s Wembley Stadium begins at £74.25, with the most expensive ticket a £506.25 pre-show party, exhibition and seated package.

The cheapest seats are 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.

Before the announcement for UK shows, Irish promoters MCD said on its website that the price of both of the two Croke Park gigs in Dublin will start at 86.50 euros (£72.75) without booking fees.

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.

Fans will be able to buy four tickets each.
