It is a cashgrab. Just come to terms with it. Like Liam has to. My head knows that instantly, but feelings will flow and move at their own pace, and they'll continue to come up everytime an isntance triggers awareness of the reality Liam and Noel are on different pages in their heads right now for sure I bet liam believes with enough time onstage he can bring noel's heart back online for the love of oasis and the fans let's see i see it as one believer and one non believer Yeah. It's like getting together with someone again after a breakup. You think it will all be like before. But it never is. I also think Liam is focused on getting back to whatever Oasis was for him. While Noel sees it as one major isolated payout. |

This ain’t a cash grab , Noel is worth a fortune he’s also got the back catalogue he’s selling next year it’s already worth 200 million quid after this add another 50 mill on top.. it’s the ticket agencies that wack these charges on plus do people realise how much everything is in the uk at minute ? It’s finished as a country . The problem with this today is the system crashed and kept everyone in a que , the actual gigs have sold out in about 10 minutes it’s absurd , the whole of august should’ve gone to Wembley alone , 5 gigs each venue should’ve been the minimum .. but maybe they didn’t think the demand would’ve been around 14 million? Its more than knebworth

Does anyone know how many total tickets they sold and how much demand there was? Posted in another thread that The Mirror reported earlier that 14 million people will have tried to get tickets. Possibly bigger than Knebworth 96 Where are they getting those numbers, though? We all know tons of people here who had multiple windows open, or tried multiple sessions, or were on multiple devices. Plus the bots! I'd be extremely dubious of any reported numbers (even from a much more reliable source than the Mirror) without an explanation of how they got them. |

All tickets now sold out.
"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."
Okay, but what does "at face value" mean when you have dynamic pricing? Does dynamic pricing not defeat the entire purpose of this whole scheme?

I do agree but I personally never felt they pushed that envelope. A lot of their career they were at the stage where they "could" just charge £10 more than you think that boxset's worth, or £15 more for a hoodie at a gig, or £20 for a gig put they never did they always was priced pretty much where everyone thought it was a fair price. obv they now seeing what other acts 'get away with it as such' and thinking well have some of that then?? |

Lots of negative comments on the social media channels. I feel guilty having the tickets. It’s a disappointing night to be an oasis fan.

It’s a disappointing night to be an oasis fan. if the stats are in anyway true and 14 million people around the world wanted 1.3-1.4 million tickers then thats over 12 million dissapointed people so wouldn't feels bad for a second. the people who got through and faced a 350 standing ticket when they was told would be 150 then 100% feel for them. You should feel amazing. They'll get there turn in 2026 im more than sure |

The dynamic thing is crazy. I really hope they weren’t behind it. Also no new press coverage this reeks of Noel money grab. At least pretend you’re into it. Seeing the old 2009 clips of them promoting Wembley on the news is getting irritating

Ticketmaster handle it like shit, so it was certain that a storm would break out, now with social media and such a huge wave of people waited for tickets. To be fair there were far more motivated buyers than tickets. So there would have been a lot a furious people anyway. At least they can blame Ticketmaster or dynamic pricing. It is easier than to blame the main factor at play : Luck. It’s not like they « lost » to casual buyers that arrived 3 hours after them. Everyone was on the same page and no-one did « better ». Just luck. |

Seeing the old 2009 clips of them promoting Wembley on the news is getting irritating Ticketmaster has been doing this for big acts in certain countries (started in the US) for a while, it's not Oasis in particular I don't get what people's expectations for this were, of course they were gonna try to make as much money from it as possible, and their relationship is so complex you don't just go out and act as if nothing happened They gave us a glimpse of the photoshoot, I'm sure they'll give us more in the future |

Just luck. In my opinion, at least they should have limited at 4 tickets by account for the 17 gigs. Not 4 tickets by gig. That's just common sense 🤷 But, we knew it will be apocalyptic so, that's poker |

Just cos 'others do it' doesn't mean it's ok when you already sat on nearly £200 million in tickets sales in 1 day. Nothing can justify that 150 -350 increase without prior warning |

These tactics are disgusting.
I remember paying 40 euros the last time I had seen Oasis and everybody had the same chance and paid the same price.
I would have paid up to 180 for a ticket but 350.... fuck ticketmaster.... fuck them.

Its more than knebworth I don’t think anyone expect such demand, they should add extra date but I doubt they can even negotiate for new date now. Those 2 added dates should originally added when we are queuing for the tickets I suppose |

One million tickets available against a demand of around 40 million. In the best case scenario, if I did the math correctly, there is a 4% chance of success taking into account that a person could take a maximum of four coupons.
Crazy

Crazy Yeah, it's totally true dynamic pricing is probably the reason why I got tickets. It's also true other big acts do it. And I would not be surprised if this was part of the conditions to get that supposed 50M check. But at the same time, it simply does not seem fair to everyone |

Keep an eye on twickets, really sorry it didn't work out for you tonight! Is twickets a decent source? Never used or heard of it before? yes it’s a face value resale platform, only problem is you need to be really quick or just pure luck to get ticket off it. I managed to find a Paul Macca seated ticket there and in the end released it, so there’s chance we can see oasis as well Set notification on Twickets and jump right in if it appears. Highly likely you will see ticket not available/in others bag but keep trying, chances are someone will release it or it’s just system hasn’t fully listed it yet. |

Ah, the smell of capitalism 👃🏻
But this is the price you eventually pay for all those sneaky little illegal downloads you’ve made throughout your life.
Yousendit. You pay for it.
