Oasis to cancel ticket resale | Culture

The hype surrounding the band Oasis and their announced reconciliation on stage next summer continues to grow and add zeros to the price of tickets. The group of the Gallagher brothers announced on Tuesday that they will offer 17 concerts in the United Kingdom and Ireland and that the bulk of the tickets would go on sale today Saturday at 10 in the morning Spanish time. There are 1.4 million tickets available for the 17 live performances throughout July and August 2025. But the official sales platforms collapsed today Saturday due to an overload of requests.

The day before, on Friday evening, a limited number of tickets were available for pre-sale for three hours. Minutes after the channel was opened, tickets were already being advertised for resale, with prices up to 40 times higher. Tickets for the Manchester show on 12 July 2025 were priced at almost 3,000 euros, and for Wembley Stadium in London on 26 July they were priced at over 7,000 euros. The original ticket price is 178 euros for standing room and between 86 and 243 euros for seats. The organisers are also offering a premium package of 600 euros.

The band’s tour promoters issued a statement on Friday warning that tickets purchased through scalping would be cancelled. “Please note that tickets can ONLY be resold for the same price as they were purchased from Ticketmaster and Twickets,” they warned. “Tickets that do not comply with the terms and conditions will be cancelled by the promoters.” Meanwhile, resale channels such as Viagigo issued a statement saying that scalping is legal in the UK and insisted that they are complying with regulations.

After 15 years, the announcement that Oasis are leaving behind the monumental row they had at a rock festival in Paris, which was the trigger for their break-up, has been received with enormous expectation. The group’s catalogue of songs from the nineties has risen to the top positions on streaming platforms. And on Friday a reissue of Definitely Maybe was released for the 30th anniversary.

Brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher, along with guitarist Paul Bonehead Arthurs, bassist Paul Guigst McGuigan and drummer Tony McCarroll formed Oasis in 1991 in Manchester. The group officially broke up in 2009 following a performance at Rock en Seine in Paris.
