Tickets for Oasis’ 2025 reunion are now “limited” according to Ticketmaster after fans reported that the ticket agent’s website “crashed” due to huge demand this morning (August 31) and hundreds of thousands more have been stuck in online queues for hours.
The Britpop band announced a huge run of comeback gigs on Tuesday (August 27), dubbed Oasis Live ’25. Set to take place next summer, the trek will see Liam and Noel Gallagher perform on stage together for the first time in 16 years.
Concerts were scheduled for Manchester’s Heaton Park, London’s Wembley Stadium, Cardiff’s Principality Stadium, Dublin’s Croke Park, and Edinburgh’s Murrayfield Stadium. Mid-week, extra gigs were confirmed for Manchester, London and Edinburgh in response to “unprecedented demand”.
Tickets for the gigs went on sale this morning at 9am here for (UK), and here (Ireland). Ahead of the sale, fans online reported issues with both Ticketmaster’s main website and the app apparently “crashing” ahead of the sale as they received “503” errors – alongside long queues just to access the site, such was the demand for tickets.
Ticketmaster told NME in a statement: “The queue is moving along as fans buy tickets. 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.”
Now, they’ve issued a further message saying tickets are “limited”. On the website, a message now reads: “Tickets for Oasis are still available, but inventory is now limited and not all ticket prices are available.”

Ticketmaster outlined its strict rules for purchasing tickets earlier this week – confirming that customers will only be able to order four tickets per show, per household and card. Additionally, Oasis have partnered with resale platform Twickets where fans can buy unwanted tickets for no more than face value (plus booking fees).
Ahead of the reunion, the band also unveiled a series of shirts to commemorate the occasion. Alongside their collaboration with Levi’s announced on August 28, two new shirts have been announced exclusively to buy on Amazon Music.
The first is a black tee, with a photo of all five members of Oasis squeezed onto the back of a bus. You can see Noel and Liam at the front, along with Bonehead, Paul “Guigsy” McGuigan and Tony McCaroll visible in the back.
You can also cop a white tee with the band’s debut ‘Definitely Maybe’ and its cover emblazoned on the front in a bold blue colour. It’s most certainly a nod to the 30th anniversary reissue of their seminal album, which dropped yesterday (August 30). Both designs are available to purchase here for £24.
There is currently talk about which previous Oasis members could be joining Liam and Noel on the road in 2025, with co-founder Paul ‘Bonehead’ Arthurs reportedly on board. Previous reports claimed that “no other original Oasis member is expected to join the reunion”, and that “the members of Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds will step in”.
Fans have also been revisiting the group’s final setlist from 2009 to get an idea of what they might play next year. See NME’s dream setlist for the forthcoming massive gigs here.
There are whispers of a potential new Oasis album too, and plans are now “underway” for further concerts outside of Europe.
In other news, Oasis have ruled out a headline performance at Glastonbury 2025 and will not be appearing at “any other festivals next year”.
Oasis Live ’25 is reportedly set to make an eye-watering £400million, and will follow the extended ‘Definitely Maybe’ 30th anniversary reissue, out yesterday (Friday August 30).
