Oasis issue fake ticket warning to fans ahead of 2025 reunion tour

Oasis have issued a warning to fans over 'fake tickets' for their 2025 reunion tour

Oasis have issued a strong warning to any fans thinking of buying tickets to the North America leg of their 2025 world tour.

Writing on social media this evening, official accounts for the Britpop band revealed a number of "fake Oasis tickets have already been discovered on Stubhub and Vivid Seats" before the official sale has even begun!

Earlier this week, Noel and Liam Gallagher 's band unveiled dates in the US, Canada and Mexico for their hotly anticipated reunion tour. The legendary Supersonic rockers are set to thrill fans at Toronto Rogers Stadium on 24 August 2025 before hitting Chicago Soldier Field on 28 August.

Oasis will then be rocking New Jersey MetLife Stadium on 31 August, taking over Los Angeles Rose Bowl Stadium on 6 September and wrapping up with a bang at Mexico City Estadio GNP Seguros on 12 September. Cage the Elephant will be joining Oasis as the opening act.

Taking to Twitter (X), the official Oasis account tonight warned fans: "Please be aware. Thousands of fake Oasis tickets have already been discovered on Stubhub and Vivid Seats before the North America tour has even gone on sale! @TwicketsUS and @Ticketmaster Fan-to-Fan in the US and Canada are the only official resellers. Read the @nivassoc letter here."

An extract of the letter, dated 2 October, reads: "Tonight, the National Independent Venue Association (NIVA) issued a letter to Senate Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation Chair Maria Cantwell (D-WA) and U.S. Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX), urging immediate action against widespread deceptive practices perpetuated by predatory ticket brokers and resale platforms through Senate action the Fans First Act.

"The letter highlights the alarming evidence of at least 9,000 fake tickets already listed for sale for the highly anticipated U.S. shows of Oasis, despite the fact that the promoter has yet to make U.S. tickets available for anyone to purchase until October 4, with pre-sale tickets going live October 3. Not only are these tickets fake, they are estimated to be exceedingly higher than the face value of real tickets."

This highly awaited series of gigs marks Oasis's triumphant return to North American and Mexican stages for the first time since 2008 when they toured with their seventh studio album Dig Out Your Soul. Following a dramatic backstage altercation with his brother Liam during a Paris festival in August 2009, Noel Gallagher famously walked away from Oasis, leaving the brothers estranged for 15 years amidst rumours of feuding, until this iconic reunion was confirmed.

Despite having already sold out 19 stadium shows in the UK and Ireland, some fans expressed agitation due to Ticketmaster's dynamic pricing policy during the ticket sale process. After hours of queuing and grappling with technical glitches, many fans found themselves charged more than double the face value of a ticket due to the extraordinary demand.

In response to this, the band added two extra gigs at London's Wembley Stadium. These were sold via a staggered invitation-only ballot, giving access to fans who missed out in the initial sale. For their North American tour dates, Oasis has confirmed that Ticketmaster's dynamic pricing model will not be used.

A formal statement from Oasis' management stated: "Ticketmaster's dynamic pricing model will not be applied to the forthcoming sale of tickets to Oasis concerts in North America. It is widely accepted that dynamic pricing remains a significant tool to combat ticket touting and keeps prices for a significant proportion of fans lower than the market rate and thus more affordable.

"But, when unprecedented ticket demand (where the entire tour could be sold many times over at the moment tickets go on sale) is combined with technology that cannot cope with that demand, it becomes less effective and can lead to an unacceptable experience for fans. We have made this decision for the North America tour to hopefully avoid a repeat of the issues fans in the UK and Ireland experienced recently."
