Oasis ticket sale LIVE: All UK and Ireland shows sold out after 'nightmare' virtual queues

All tickets for Oasis’s 2025 UK and Ireland gigs have sold out, the band said on social media platform X.

The announcement came at 7pm on Saturday after hours of controversy with some fans queueing for long periods on official selling sites Ticketmaster and GigsandTours.com.

General tickets for the band’s 2025 tour went on sale from 8am in Ireland and 9am in the UK, with online platforms experiencing outages and tech issues, leaving fans in a virtual queue for around five hours.

Those lucky enough to nab a ticket shared their excitement online while others were left frustrated by the process, claiming they were “kicked out” of the virtual queue on Ticketmaster just moments before purchasing.

Meanwhile, politicians have criticised ticket companies for trying to “fleece fans” as some tickets went on sale for five times the price they were expected to be.

Irish MEP Regina Doherty has called for an investigation into the pricing structure for tickets sold for the two Oasis gigs at Croke Park in Dublin.

“When ticket prices were advertised earlier this week, standing tickets in Croke Park were 86.50 euro plus booking fees, but when many people eventually got through the online queue this morning, they were faced with the exact same ticket at a price of 415.50 euro,” she said.

Oasis warned fans that any “counterfeit” relisted tickets “will be cancelled” as some cropped up on Viagogo for up to £5,909.

A post to the band’s X page said on Saturday: “Please note, Oasis Live ‘25 tickets can only be resold at face value via @Ticketmaster and @Twickets!

“Tickets appearing on other secondary ticketing sites are either counterfeit or 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 such as Viagogo.

The announcement came at 7pm on Saturday after hours of controversy with some fans queueing for long periods on official selling sites Ticketmaster and GigsandTours.com.

Others complained of problems on the sites including being ejected from the queue or being mistaken for bots.

The band tweeted: “Oasis Live ‘25 UK and Ireland tickets have now SOLD OUT. Please be aware of counterfeit and void tickets appearing on the secondary market. Tickets can ONLY be resold, at face value, via @TicketmasterUK and @Twickets.”

Friends faced 200 euro price difference for same tickets

19:58 , Jacob Phillips

Darragh Moriarty, from Dublin, said ticket prices had risen to 415 euro when he got to the front of the queue, but his friends had bought them for 180 euro.

The 30-year-old health charity worker said he had hoped a group of six would be able to go, but among his group only four people were able to get tickets.

He compared his WhatsApp group with his friends to the Hunger Games as they decided who would get the tickets.

He said: “We had a raffle between six of us, thankfully my name came out of the hat.

“None of us paid that price (415 euro/£349).

“The hope is most people don’t buy them at that rate and they go back down.

“It’s stomach-churning to see preying on people’s desperation and getting absolutely gouged like that.”

Calls for investigation over ticket companies 'fleecing fans'

19:38 , Jacob Phillips

Ticket pricing for Oasis’ reunion tour has prompted calls for an investigation as “in-demand prices” saw some tickets advertised at five times their original price.

Politicians have accused Ticketmaster of “fleecing fans” with its dynamic ticket pricing, which means prices change depending on demand for gigs.

Dynamic pricing on Ticketmaster has now set some remaining tickets at around £355 plus fees.

Labour MP for St Helens North David Baines took to X to complain about the ticket company changing prices to “rake in the cash”.

He wrote: “After rightly criticising those who got presale tickets and then immediately tried to resell them for huge profits, it’s shocking to hear that Ticketmaster UK are now using ‘dynamic pricing’ to fleece fans and rake in the cash.

“Especially insulting for those who have queued all day.”

'Fingers crossed they will stay together' says ticket holder

19:05

An Oasis fan from London said she “screamed with joy” after waiting three hours to secure four tickets to see the band at Wembley.

Amelia Braddick, 26, who grew up listening to Oasis and whose parents are fans of the Manchester band, described buying the four tickets, each costing £120, for August 2 next year as “an adrenaline rush”.

“I know that sounds silly, but when you want to see a band or an artist that you respect, and you’ve always wanted to see, it was such an incredible feeling. I screamed with joy,” the journalist from Islington, north London, told the PA news agency.

She said receiving the tickets on Saturday felt “fantastic”, adding: “Today is my birthday so it’s a really good birthday surprise.”

Noel and Liam Gallagher announced their reunion tour on Tuesday, but Ms Braddick joked she “(hopes) that they won’t break up before next year”.

She added: “You never know, there might be some beef, but hopefully, fingers crossed, they’ll stay together.”

Londoner booted off Ticketmaster after four hour wait

17:53 , Jacob Phillips

A Londoner has expressed her frustration after waiting four hours in a virtual queue on Ticketmaster, only to be booted off the site when they were mistaken for a bot.

Emma Lillelund had four tickets in her basket when the Ticketmaster website reset and pushed her out.

When she reloaded the page there were 200,000 people in front of her.

The 29-year-old also criticised the price of tickets.

She told the Standard: “They said they don’t want any resale tickets at more than face value and then they allow dynamic pricing.

“A premium package was £300 when face value it was meant to be like £70 to £80.

“It was £400 for some of the lower tier tickets. It’s absolute insanity and hypocrisy.”

Irish politician calls for investigation into ticket prices for Dublin gigs

17:43 , Jacob Phillips

Irish MEP Regina Doherty has called for an investigation into the pricing structure for tickets sold for the two Oasis gigs at Croke Park in Dublin.

The Fine Gael representative for the Dublin constituency urged Ireland’s Competition and Consumer Commission to examine the process.

“When ticket prices were advertised earlier this week, standing tickets in Croke Park were 86.50 euro plus booking fees, but when many people eventually got through the online queue this morning, they were faced with the exact same ticket at a price of 415.50 euro,” she said.

“That’s not transparent advertising and certainly not fair to consumers.

“The EU’s Digital Services Act has sections included specifically to ensure large platforms that control aspects of the digital economy don’t just make up their own rules that are unfair for consumers.”

She said the “in-demand” pricing structure needed to be examined.

“Every ticket for these gigs was always going to be ‘in demand’ so slapping an extra label and 300 euro on some standing tickets is just extortionate,” she added.

MP accuses Ticketmaster of trying to 'fleece fans'

17:38 , Jacob Phillips

An MP has accused Ticketmaster of trying to “fleece fans” using dynamic ticket pricing.

Labour MP for St Helens North David Baines took to X to complain about the ticket company changing prices to “rake in the cash”.

He wrote: “After rightly criticising those who got presale tickets and then immediately tried to resell them for huge profits, it’s shocking to hear that @TicketmasterUK are now using ‘dynamic pricing’ to fleece fans & rake in the cash. Especially insulting for those who have queued all day.”

Dynamic pricing means ticket prices increase based on demand.

Oasis fans demand extra tour dates as 'millions' trapped in queues

17:04 , Jacob Phillips

Die-hard Oasis fans have demanded the Britpop band put on extra tour dates after they were trapped for hours waiting in “the most painful ticket experience ever”.

Fans hoping to secure tickets to see the band’s reunion tour next year have shared their “nightmare” situations after they queued for hours in the hope of seeing the Gallagher brothers back together on stage.

General tickets went on sale for the band’s comeback tour at 9am on Saturday for those in the UK and 8am for fans in Ireland.

But online platforms experienced outages and tech issues, leaving fans in a virtual queue for around five hours.

'Impossible task' to get accessible tickets for Wembley Stadium

16:37 , Jacob Phillips

Oasis fans have said getting accessible tickets for Wembley Stadium is an “impossible task”, as they tried to call one phone number thousands of times.

General tickets went on sale for the band’s comeback tour at 9am on Saturday, and fans requesting accessible tickets were advised to call a phone number for the Wembley concerts.

But Frances Mobbs said trying to get accessible tickets for her son was an “impossible task”.

Mrs Mobbs, from Norfolk, wanted to buy four tickets for her son Nick Mobbs, 41, his carer and two family members, for the concert on July 26.

A 'nightmare' experience

15:36 , Will Mata

George Buka, 35, from Southend-on-Sea, Essex, attempted to buy tickets to see Oasis in the UK and described his experience on Ticketmaster as a "nightmare".

"It's been an absolute nightmare of an experience. I've been doing it since 8am this morning, you have to queue in order to join the queue, you can't log in," he told PA.

"They don't have the facilities or capacity to run this kind of event. But it's not the first time Ticketmaster has made it difficult for fans to try and buy tickets."

Mr Buka, who began waiting at 8am on Saturday, said he faced long waiting times in queues, website crashes and failed log-ins.

He added: "One of my sessions was suspended because they thought I was a bot. I only had one tab open and then I finally was able to join a queue at about 10am."

He is concerned tickets have been purchased for the purpose of being resold at a higher rate via third-party ticket providers.

"If you go on other websites, even though Oasis said it wouldn't be happening, people will still find a loophole," Mr Buka said.

"The touts, the influencers, they'll find a way of getting to the show and just absolutely kill the music industry day.

"I really wanted to go, but it's just ruined by morning now."

What was the Oasis setlist last time they played Wembley Stadium?

15:33 , Will Mata

The Gallaghers were both onstage together at Wembley in 2009 in their final (we thought) tour supporting 2008 album Dig Out Your Soul.

They’ve not recorded any music since obviously, so could we be on for a repeat performance?

One wonders if they might lean more heavily into their earlier stuff more on this next tour.

1. Rock 'n' Roll Star

2. Lyla

3. The Shock of the Lightning

4. Roll With It

Limited number of Oasis tickets left

15:06 , Will Mata

A message on the Ticketmaster website at 2.37pm told those still queuing online on Saturday that the "inventory is now very limited", with some ticket types no longer available.

The company's Irish site said the shows in Dublin's Croke Park had sold out so far, with more tickets likely to be released later.

Getting accessible tickets proves impossible for one mother

13:54 , Will Mata

Oasis fans have said getting accessible tickets for Wembley Stadium is an "impossible task", as they tried to call one phone number thousands of times.

General tickets went on sale for the band's comeback tour at 9am on Saturday, and fans requesting accessible tickets were advised to call a phone number for the Wembley concerts.

But Frances Mobbs said trying to get accessible tickets for her son was an "impossible task".

"I know I'm one of thousands and thousands and thousands of people, but there's one dedicated phone line which is constantly engaged or saying we are unable to complete your call.”

PA said Wembley Stadium has been approached to comment.

Dublin is sold out!

13:40 , Will Mata

Ticketmaster’s Irish site told Oasis fans that all of the tickets currently released for the band’s gigs at Dublin’s Croke Park have sold out.

At 1.23 pm, the website posted a message saying: “UPDATE: There are currently no tickets available. Please check back later as more may be released.”

Success, but at some cost

13:39 , William Mata

A lifelong fan has shared his annoyance at the handling of the sale - but has been successful in buying tickets.

Dan Johnston bought four tickets at £350 each to see Oasis in London.

He told the Standard: “If a company says a ticket will be £151 and that these tickets cannot be sold for anything more than face value or the tickets will be cancelled.

“How can they then justify themselves upping the price £200 extra before they even sell out of the tickets.

“Someone has paid £151 for the same ticket from the same company as I have paid over £350 with absolutely no difference. Is this profiteering?”

'Hard to not look back in anger'

13:27 , Will Mata

Standard writer Tamara Davison said she has spent five hours, apparently in vain, trying to get Oasis tickets.

She added that she was prepared to come from overseas to see the show.

“Growing up in Manchester, Oasis has always been a big part of my life,” she said.

“For me, this is the only music event of the year and I’m devastated that I spent five hours waiting for nothing.

“Someone once said ‘don’t look back in anger’, but that’s going to be difficult.”

Another satisfied customer

13:08 , Will Mata

A long-time fan trying for tickets to see Oasis in Dublin next year said he feels "frustration" and "anger" after he was kicked out of the Ticketmaster queue.

Scott McLean, 28, logged into his account on the ticket-selling website at 7.30am on Saturday ahead of Irish sales opening at 8am.

He was in a queue of 20,000 for around 30 minutes before selecting four tickets to see the band's show at Croke Park.

However, his browser began buffering for half an hour as he tried to make the purchase, prompting him to contact the Ticketmaster customer service account on X, formerly Twitter, for advice.

"I followed their advice, cleared my cookies and cache on my browser and then it kicked me out completely. It just came up to that error screen after I followed their guidance," the business analyst from Belfast told the PA news agency.

"I had to rejoin the queue and I ended up about 700,000 places worse off after following their guidance."

He said he feels "frustration and anger, not much more than that", adding: "It's just tickets for a concert after all, but I really wanted to go."

'Don't give up' says happy fan after securing tickets

13:07 , Will Mata

A woman who has been a fan of Oasis for 10 years said she is "over the moon" to have secured two tickets for the Manchester band's reunion tour and urged others "don't give up".

Isabelle Doyle, 21, from Huddersfield, West Yorkshire, was among the few thousands of people who received a pre-sale code and secured two tickets on Friday for Wembley at a cost of £150 each.

"I sat in my living room, booted up Ticketmaster and I was about 5,000 in the queue. I was in the queue for about 40 minutes and managed to get two seated tickets for Wembley," the barista told the PA news agency.

"I'm over the moon. I've been a fan of Oasis for about 10 years now, literally since I was 11 years old. Finally to be able to see them after they got me through as a teenager, it's absolutely amazing and I'm so excited."

She urged fans trying to buy tickets on Saturday to "keep going".

"Don't give up and even if it all falls through, try the official reselling website. You will get there," she said.

Fans being offered 'in demand' ticket option

13:05 , Will Mata

Oasis fans have seen ‘in demand’ tickets being advertised for more tha £400 by Ticketmaster.

“In Demand Tickets are tickets to concerts and other events made available by artists and Event Organisers through Ticketmaster,” the site explains.

“They give fans fair and safe access to sought after seats at market driven prices.

“In Demand Tickets are tickets offering sought after views and seats from Ticketmaster. The prices are adjusted according to supply and demand.”

But not everybody is happy. One fan said it is just the same view as a standing ticket - but for a lot more money.

'Inventory now limited'

12:34 , William Mata

We may now be close to a sell out.

Ticketmaster has said the inventory is now limited.

“Tickets for Oasis are still available, but inventory is now limited and not all ticket prices are available,” to quote a slightly fuller statement.

Could fans at least be put out of their misery soon?

She was then told her session had been suspended and her two tickets have apparently been lost.

A short story

Telling a tale in three tweets

Dan Walker speaks for many

12:10 , Will Mata

Dan Walker, the 5News and former BBC News presenter, has shared his own frustration of trying to get Oasis tickets.

“In the queue, out of the queue, refresh / don’t refresh, wait in line, back of the line, accused of being a bot… timed out,” he said.

Slow queuing process...

11:51 , Will Mata

Hundreds of thousands of Oasis fans remain in the queue nearly three hours after tickets went on sale.

Some have reported being at the point of buying a ticket only for the site to lose connection and send fans back to the end of the line.

Queue lengths are still at the 200,000 mark.

One said on Twitter: “Can we just go back to the old days of queuing outside the record shop or gig venue to buy tickets please?”

Bucket hats set to boom as Oasis takes fashion back to Britpop Britain

Bucket hats are back, if they ever went away.

Britpop’s essential piece of headgear has been seen at festivals this summer.

Joe Bromley writes an ode to Liam Gallagher’s choice of hat.

Chance of bots buying up Oasis tickets

11:22 , Will Mata

IT experts say there is a "huge possibility" that high numbers of Oasis tickets are being purchased by computer bots at once.

Ticket re-sellers often use automated software to buy more tickets for events than they are allowed, only to sell them on at higher prices.

Oasis fans also reported being hit with website outage issues while trying to book shows on Saturday.

Jake Moore, global cybersecurity adviser at software security firm Eset said some groups have the right software and knowledge to manipulate ticket websites, and even use bots to "swoop in and purchase high numbers of tickets at once".

He told the PA news agency: "Being the next series of concerts since the demand for Taylor Swift tickets, I would suggest there would be a huge possibility of bots being used to swoop in."

Very creative, guys

11:21 , Will Mata

'When will tickets sell out?'

11:19 , William

Neither Ticketmaster nor Oasis themselves have confirmed that the tickets have sold out.

However, with millions in a queue for venues boasting a capacity of around 80,000 it is surely a matter of time.

Jordan tweeted: “Oasis if tickets are sold out can you just tell us? We’re sat in a queue just to find out if there’s even a ticket. Guessing it’s sold out now? Gutted is an understatement.”

'Frustration' for Standard reporters trying to get tickets

11:08 , Will Mata

Sadly, Oasis superfan Katrina Mirpuri - who earlier in the blog said she couldn’t wait to see the band at last - is among the many who seem destined to miss out.

“Ticketmaster won’t load for me and the Oasis tickets are not looking likely,” she said.

“I was at V Festival in 2009 when they cancelled so I never got the chance to see them. This reunion means everything to me.”

Standard health reporter Daniel Keane said it has been an “absolute shambles” and that he is at the point of giving up.

“Been queueing for a queue for two and a half hours. Deeply frustrating to see others get tickets!”

He added that he had seen tickets fetch up to £7,000 on Viagogo.

'Big buzz around Manchester'

10:55 , Will Mata

The tour’s host cities anticipate an economic boost to hotels, bars, restaurants and shops.

This is especially true of Manchester, the band's hometown and a city renowned for its musical heritage.Sacha Lord, Manchester's official nighttime economy adviser, said "there's a big buzz" in the city about the reunion."This is a homecoming gig," he said. "When they set foot on that stage for the first time, it's going to be a really special moment."

Viagogo defends having Oasis tickets on sale for marked up prices

10:51 , Will Mata

Ticket reseller Viagogo has defended having Oasis tickets on sale for inflated prices on its platform as a “legal” practice.

The Britpop band has alrrady warned concertgoers that passes bought outside of the official websites Ticketmaster and Twickets will be cancelled.

Cris Miller, Viagogo global managing director, said in a statement to the PA news agency: “This is a dream event anticipated by millions worldwide.

“Our number-one tip for fans using secondary marketplaces is to continue to check prices outside of the first few weeks of sale.”

More to follow...

Very funny...

10:48 , Will Mata

Nobody was expecting the reunion to be a total love-in but they’re surely better than this!

Why are tickets so expensive?

10:46 , Will Mata

Tickets for Oasis do not come cheap.

For their Manchester gigs, fans will be charged £148.50 for general admission, with hospitality packages starting from £268.

At Wembley, standing tickets will be £151, while seats will cost you anything from £74 to £206. In a cost-of-living crisis, those numbers sting.

But the Gallaghers are justified to put up the asking price, writes Vicky Jessop.

And it’s not just to pay the £20m Noel reportedly has to find to cover his divorce.

Opinion: Not all that fussed about Oasis

10:40 , Will Mata

Oasis might be the hottest ticket right now, but our columnist Tina Campbell is not currently in line.

“I for one won’t even be bothering to try and while I may be in a minority here, just don’t care about an Oasis reunion,” she wrote for our piece here.

“Truth be told, I was more excited about S Club 7 and Girls Aloud getting back together.”

Judging by the levels of stress witnessed in buying tickets this morning, is there something to be said for not being an Oasis fan right now?

- Funnily enough, S Club 7 have been namechecked by Liam Gallagher. He said in an interview with Jonathan Ross that his rock and roll lifestyle was too much at times for his brother to handle. “We’re not S Club 7,” he said in reference.

Ticketmaster says that queue is moving along

10:16 , Will Mata

Ticketmaster has said that the process is moving forward.

"The queue is moving along as fans buy tickets,” a statement sent to the Evening Standard read.

“As anticipated, millions of fans are accessing our site so have been placed in a queue.

“Fans are advised to hold their place in line, make sure they're only using one tab, clear cookies, and ensure they aren't using any VPN software on their device."

She hit out at those saying that long-term fans deserve tickets over young women who have discovered them more recently.

Complaints queue is moving 'incredibly slowly'

10:05 , William Mata

Fans have voiced frustration with being tens of thousands of places deep in the queue which is not moving forward very quickly.

“I’m 65839 in the queue, but have only moved 4000 places in 45 minutes… why is the queue moving so slowly?” tweeted one fan.

Ticketmaster replied: “As expected, @oasis is incredibly popular. While there's a queue, please hang tight and keep your place in line.”

The many fights that led to Oasis breaking up

09:52 , Will Mata

Can the Gallaghers hold it together for one year?

They’re going to have to. Noel and Liam have already fallen out many times previously and it seemed their 2009 split was pretty final.

Here is how their fights have intensified over the years.

Oasis fans are going to 'boycott Viagogo'

09:45 , Will Mata

Oasis fans have pledged to avoid buying reunion tickets on the resale site Viagogo after some were seen being sold for more than £3,000, reports the Sun.

The band have said that only Ticketmaster and Twickets resales will be allowed but some adverts for the 2025 tour have been seen popping up elsewhere.

"They're probably on #Viagogo already,” one fan tweeted. “You'll have to sell your house."

Fans find websites unable to load

09:37 , William Mata

Manchester-based promoter SJM Concerts’ website Gigs and Tours has been unable to load since around 8.10am

The site displays messages saying: “Please bear with us. At the moment there are a lot of people on the site looking for tickets, so we have put a queuing system in place, which is completely normal.

“This page will refresh automatically and we’ll get you where you want to be as soon as a space opens up. Thank you for your patience!”

Similar issues were encountered on the ticketmaster.ie page for the two shows at Dublin’s Croke Park, which went on sale at 8am.

Fans being reported being kicked out of Ticketmaster

09:34 , Will Mata

A number of Oasis fans have said they have been kicked out of the site as they tried to access tickets.

Woody, on Twitter, said he had been logged out of the site while in a queue for tickets.

Kevin Doyle said he has beeen kicked off as well for “no reason”.

Younger fans hoping to have their moment

09:31 , Will Mata

Katrina Mirpuri is looking forward to see Oasis having missed out the first time around.

She writes that the band were all she listened to as a teenager - but they broke up only two years after she first heard of them.

Katrina says: “I quickly worked my way through their discography, borrowing Oasis CDs from my best friend’s dad, and spent my spare time watching Oasis interviews and live performances, entertained by everything about the Gallagher brothers.

“The way they dressed, the way they talked and most importantly their music. I was obsessed.”

She added: “Naturally I have a few concerns. Will I even get tickets? Will the brothers fall out before the tour? Fans are also keen to know how this all came about and whether it’s here to stay. Have they really reconciled? Will there be new music? There’s so much to wonder.”

Some more memes...

09:18 , Will Mata

Ticketmaster are taking a grilling online but have tweeted their best advice.

“Please make sure you are only using one tab, clear your cookies, and ensure you aren't using any VPN software on your device,” the latest reads.

Still... You know it’s not going well for everyone when Brian Butterfield thinks he can do a better job.

Another warning about reselling tickets

09:13 , Will Mata

Oasis have tried to set the record straight.

“Please note, Oasis Live ‘25 tickets can only be resold at face value via Ticketmaster and Twickets,” a post reads.

“Tickets appearing on other secondary ticketing sites are either counterfeit or will be cancelled by the promoters.”

The band, or whoever runs their Twitter account, have stepped in after a number of fake adverts seen on social media on Saturday morning.

There have also been false tweets about the band breaking up flying around.

Who is actually in Oasis these days?

09:08 , Will Mata

Liam and Noel are definitely (no maybe about it) going to be there. But who will be joining them?

The band’s original line up has long since been shaken up and it would be a huge shock if Guigsy and, especially, Tony McCarroll came out with the Gallaghers.

But Gem Archer and Bonehead - both guitarists - could be back. Both men have played with either or both Noel and Liam over their respective solo careers.

Alan White has not confirmed if he will be on drums.

Noel and Liam Gallagher have been at odds many times in their lives - but one thing they have always had in common is their support of Manchester City.

However - one strange omen might be bad news for their team.

The Stone Roses got back together in 2011, just in time for their beloved Manchester United to fall on hard times. The Red Devils have not won the league since 2013.

Dan Kilpatrick has the full story.

Oasis fans might find that the cost of the ticket is only the start as hotel and room bookings have risen in price by a reported 88 per cent.

Analysis from TopOffshoreCasinos has revealed the true cost of accommodation around Cardiff, Manchester and London.

Costs taken from Premier Inn, Travelodge, Holiday Inn and Hilton hotels show that costs have risen on average 88 per cent during the week of Oasis shows in each city.

Furthermore, the biggest price rise comes for Manchester’s Heaton Park shows with one £80 room jumping to £335 - with many other locations already sold out.

“Oasis you need to put on another five nights at Croke Park!” tweeted one fan about the situation.

Croke Park has an 82,000 capacity and with more than 300,000 in the queue for tickets it will leave many empty handed.

Kathy tweeted: “I was in the queue the second they went on sale. The seating capacity is 82,300. My daughter and son-in-law will be so disappointed.”

But a few have shared the prized screenshot of the confirmation screen.

The short answer is no, Oasis have said *These dates will be the band’s exclusive European appearances.”

The shows will also not be televised.

The band had been an early front runner to land a coverted slot as a Glastonbury headliner next year but this will not be happening.

It has led to some debate as to who will headline at Worthy Farm next year.

Here are our best guesses.
