Noel and Liam Gallagher announced on Tuesday (August 27) they had put their acrimonious split behind them, confirming Oasis' long-awaited reunion after 15 years.
Making the announcement, the brothers said: “The great wait is over" before revealing a 2025 UK and Ireland tour which will include dates in Cardiff, Manchester, London, Edinburgh and Dublin.
Are there still Oasis tickets left?
Thousands of fans have spent hours online this morning (Saturday, August 31) battling technical issues in the hope of securing tickets to see Oasis.

If you are still waiting in the queue, you may be wondering if there are any tickets left.
If you are looking to buy tickets to the band's shows in Dublin's Croke Park they are now sold out, according to Ticketmaster.
The company’s Irish website said the shows in Croke Park had "sold out so far".
However, more tickets are likely to be released later.
At 1.23pm, the website posted a message saying: “UPDATE: There are currently no tickets available. Please check back later as more may be released.”
For those looking to secure tickets to Oasis' reunion shows in either Cardiff, Edinburgh, Manchester or London, the Ticketmaster website (at 2.37pm) warned those still queuing that “inventory is now limited”, with some ticket types no longer available.
Oasis fans face lengthy waits and problems with booking websites
Fans have endured long waits and technical issues with booking websites this morning as they queued online in the hope of securing Oasis tickets.
Manchester-based promoter SJM Concerts’ website Gigs and Tours, Ticketmaster and See Tickets all told website visitors that they would need to wait for the page to refresh to join a queue.
Ticketmaster’s page refreshed after a period to tell hopeful concertgoers that they were in queue, and “when it’s your turn, you will automatically be able to browse events and shop for tickets”.
A spokeswoman for Ticketmaster denied the website had crashed earlier, and advised customers “to hold their place in line”.
Some Oasis ticket hopefuls also reported being “suspended” by Ticketmaster UK and Ireland after it accused them of being “bots”.
Meanwhile, Gigs and Tours and See Tickets appeared to experience issues from 8.30am until around 12.30pm.
Oasis tickets prices start to rise
Users on X (formerly Twitter) also reported the price for tickets have nearly doubled from around £148 to around £355 on Ticketmaster after they waited for hours to secure their place at the Oasis Live '25 shows.
🚨Please note, Oasis Live ‘25 tickets can only be resold at face value via @TicketmasterUK and @Twickets!

Tickets appearing on other secondary ticketing sites are either counterfeit or will be cancelled by the promoters.
An explanation by the website about the “on-demand standing ticket” price says: “The event organiser has priced these tickets according to their market value.
“Tickets do not include VIP packages. Availability and pricing are subject to change.”
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, Viagogo and Stubhub, for thousands of pounds.
