The promoter of Oasisâs reunion concerts says it will cancel tickets that have âbroken the terms and conditionsâ.
The Oasis Live â25 promoter said the âexamination of ticket sales is ongoingâ and the results will be âpassed to relevant law enforcementâ.
It said cancelled tickets would become available again on Ticketmaster, and warned fans not to purchase tickets from âunauthorised websitesâ as they may be âfraudulentâ.
It follows the bandâs announcement that it would return in 2025 for the first time since breaking up in 2009 following a backstage brawl at the Rock en Seine festival in France.
Oasis will play concerts in Manchester, Cardiff, London, Edinburgh and Dublin, and then embark on a tour of the US, Canada and Australia.
The band has scheduled four shows in Australia starting on October 31 and November 1, 2025, at Marvel Stadium in Melbourne and a pair of dates at Accor Stadium in Sydney on November 7 and 8.
âFollowing on from commitments made by the band in the run-up to the Oasis Live â25 on sale, the tourâs promoters have advised that ticket agents Ticketmaster and See Tickets will start the process of cancelling tickets that are believed to have broken the terms and conditions put in place for the tour in the coming weeks,â a spokesperson for the promoter said.
âThese terms and conditions were successfully put in place to take action against secondary ticketing companies reselling tickets for huge profit, as a result only 4 per cent of tickets have ended up on resale sites.
âBy comparison, some major tours can see up to 20 per cent of tickets appearing via the major unauthorised secondary platforms.
âThe examination of ticket sales is ongoing and the results will be passed to relevant law enforcement once complete where appropriate.
âCancelled tickets will be made available again at face value in due course from the official agency Ticketmaster. More details on this will be shared soon.
âIf fans do want to sell Oasis tickets they can do so at face value through Ticketmaster or the bandâs official resale partner Twickets.â
Tickets were spotted on reselling platform Viagogo for thousands of pounds, with standing passes ranging from ÂŁ596-ÂŁ1162 ($1171-$2284) each for the Wembley dates and one VIP pass at ÂŁ2614 ($5137) after sales were released earlier this year.
There was outrage from fans and the controversy prompted the UK government and Britainâs competition watchdog to pledge they would look at the use of dynamic pricing.
Ticketmaster has previously said it does not set concert prices and its website states this is down to the âevent organiserâ, which âhas priced these tickets according to their market valueâ.
It comes after the band announced that Liverpool group Cast will be its second opening act at all 19 dates on the UK and Ireland leg of the tour.
