Oasis cancels resale tickets for 2025 tour, fans outraged

Oasis fans are expressing their outrage after the band announced that tickets resold on platforms like Viagogo for their upcoming 2025 tour will be cancelled. The tour, which includes 17 dates across major cities such as London, Manchester, Edinburgh, Cardiff, and Dublin, has already faced criticism due to high ticket prices starting at over £100. Many fans feel these prices are excessive, leading to accusations of the tour being a 'rip off.' The band's representatives have stated they are actively monitoring unauthorized resale platforms, warning that tickets purchased through these channels are at risk of being voided. This announcement has left many fans anxious, especially those who may have spent significant amounts on resale tickets, fearing they could lose their investment. In response to the backlash, Oasis has announced additional ticket sales for two extra shows at Wembley Arena, but fans remain skeptical about the fairness of the purchasing process. Previous ticket sales saw fans facing long virtual queues and rapidly increasing prices, which has led to distrust in the system. To address these concerns, Oasis plans to implement a staggered, invitation-only ballot process for ticket sales, prioritizing fans who were unsuccessful in the initial sale through Ticketmaster. However, many fans are questioning how the band will determine who qualifies as 'unsuccessful' and are bracing for potential chaos in the upcoming ticket sales.
