Oasis have issued a warning against reselling tickets to their comeback tour, after some were listed for thousands of pounds within minutes of a pre-sale on Friday.<\/p>\n

A limited number of fans were able to buy the first batch of tickets from 19:00 BST.<\/p>\n

Shortly after, tickets were being listed online for more than \u00a36,000 – over 40 times the listed value of a standing ticket.<\/p>\n

Oasis urged people not to resell tickets at inflated prices on websites not linked to their promoter, and said they would be “cancelled”.<\/p>\n

About 1.4 million tickets are expected to be available for the 17 outdoor concerts in the UK and Ireland next July and August.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Friday’s pre-sale – which fans had to enter a ballot to access – was expected to last until 22:00 BST.<\/p>\n

Soon after it began, ticket listings appeared on resale websites like StubHub and Viagogo.<\/p>\n

Tickets for the opening gig of the tour at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium on 4 July were listed on StubHub for between \u00a3916 and \u00a34,519 within an hour of the pre-sale starting.<\/p>\n

Standing tickets for Edinburgh’s Murrayfield Stadium on 12 August have also been listed for over \u00a34,000.<\/p>\n

Oasis’s promoters have previously said tickets should only be resold through its official partners – Twickets and Ticketmaster – and only at face value.<\/p>\n

Terms and conditions on the band’s website continued: “Selling tickets through unauthorised resale platforms will breach these T&Cs and those tickets may be cancelled.”<\/p>\n

The band’s promoters have previously warned tickets purchased at inflated prices from unauthorised platforms “may be cancelled”.<\/p>\n

A full statement shared by the band on Friday read: “We have noticed people attempting to sell tickets on the secondary market since the start of the pre-sale. Please note, tickets can ONLY be resold, at face value, via @Ticketmaster and @Twickets.<\/p>\n

“Tickets sold in breach of the terms and conditions will be cancelled by the promoters.”<\/p>\n

Viagogo and StubHub have been contacted for comment.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Joy for some Oasis fans<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n
\n

On Thursday, Oasis’s promoters said there had been “unprecedented demand” for the ballot to enter the pre-sale, and added three extra dates to the 14 that were initially announced.<\/p>\n

Hundreds of people took to X to celebrate securing tickets to one of the shows. <\/p>\n

“I\u2019m actually going to see my favourite band of all time! Didn\u2019t think I\u2019d ever see this,” wrote one user. <\/p>\n

Another said: “I have 2 very excited daughters. Almost got deafened by the screaming when the purchase was verified.”<\/p>\n

One said he had secured tickets to the opening night of the tour and joked: \u201cThey should still be together then\u201d.<\/p>\n

After the pre-sale, the rest of the tickets for the UK shows will go on general sale at 09:00 on Saturday; while for Dublin, the general sale tickets will be available an hour earlier.<\/p>\n

The band will play in Cardiff, Manchester, London, Edinburgh and Dublin, and more dates could be added. <\/p>\n

Standard standing tickets will cost about \u00a3150, while standard seated tickets range from \u00a373 to about \u00a3205. Prices for official premium packages go up to \u00a3506.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

As anticipation for the gigs builds, sales and streams of the band’s back catalogue have surged, with three albums going back into the UK top five chart on Friday.<\/p>\n

Greatest hits collection Time Flies is at number three, 1995’s What’s The Story Morning Glory is at four, and debut Definitely Maybe – released on 29 August 1994 – is in fifth place.<\/p>\n

A 30th anniversary edition of Definitely Maybe was released on Friday.<\/p>\n

Oasis were formed in Manchester in 1991 – their original line-up comprised of Liam and Noel, guitarist Paul “Bonehead” Arthurs, bassist Paul “Guigsy” McGuigan and drummer Tony McCarroll.<\/p>\n

The band officially split in 2009 after an altercation backstage at the Rock en Seine festival in Paris.<\/p>\n

Their music’s popularity has never been in doubt, though, and the Official Chart Company has compiled a list <\/a>of the band’s top five most-streamed songs, which are: <\/p>\n
