Oasis Live ’27 tour tickets have sold out across all 42 dates after another fiercely competitive sale left many fans without access and others complaining about prices. The Manchester band has now issued a fresh warning about fake listings, because disappointment apparently creates excellent working conditions for scammers.
Fans who registered in advance received non-transferable codes and were assigned specific sales windows over the weekend. Organisers said the system was intended to control traffic and reduce queue times, although plenty of people still reported missing out on codes or failing to secure seats.
The tour begins in Glasgow in May 2027 before visiting Manchester, Munich, Barcelona, Amsterdam, Paris, Rome, Boston, Las Vegas and Slane Castle. It will finish with shows at Knebworth in September.
Where can fans safely buy resale tickets?
Oasis confirmed on Sunday, 27 September, that every ticket had been sold during three days of staggered sales. The band urged anyone still searching to avoid offers posted on social media.
“Fans are now reminded to remain vigilant and avoid scams selling tickets on social media,” the statement said. “These tickets will be fake and invalid.”
The band added that tickets appearing on secondary websites could also be cancelled. Official resale will be limited to Ticketmaster and Twickets, where tickets must be listed at the amount originally paid.
That has not stopped unofficial listings from appearing elsewhere. Tickets were already being advertised on Viagogo for close to £1,000, considerably more than face value and with no guarantee they will remain valid.
Liam Gallagher marked the sellout on X in his usual restrained fashion: “That’s all folks we have officially sold out no more tickets left congratulations to everyone who got a ticket and to the people who didn’t sneak in f-k it yolo LG x.”
For legal and practical purposes, sneaking in is not the recommended backup plan.
Why were buyers already expecting problems?
The band had warned about scams before the sale began, anticipating huge demand after the success of its previous reunion dates. Those warnings became more urgent once all 42 concerts sold out and unofficial sellers began targeting fans who had missed the official windows.
Complaints were not limited to suspicious resale offers. Social media users also criticised the registration process, the lack of presale codes and the cost of available tickets.
The frustration carried particular weight after the controversy surrounding ticket sales for the 2025 tour. During that sale, some buyers believed Ticketmaster had used dynamic pricing, where costs rise according to demand.
Fans reported joining queues expecting standard tickets priced at about £148, only to find options costing roughly £355 when they reached the front. The sharp increase led to widespread criticism and eventually drew attention from the UK government and competition regulators.
Oasis later said it had not known that dynamic pricing would be used. Ticketmaster maintained that the sale relied on fixed pricing tiers rather than prices changing in real time.
What did regulators find about the 2025 sale?
Under Ticketmaster’s tiered system, the cheapest allocation sold first. Buyers who reached the front later were left with more expensive fixed-price categories, which made the process look like surge pricing even if the numbers were not changing minute by minute.
The Competition and Markets Authority investigated and concluded that Ticketmaster may have misled Oasis fans through unclear pricing information. The regulator required the company to make several changes:
- Give customers clearer price information while they wait in online queues
- Label ticket categories accurately
- Avoid suggesting one ticket is better than another when there is no meaningful difference
- Notify fans at least 24 hours before a sale if tiered pricing will be used
The government also pledged to examine ticketing practices after some fans paid substantially more than others for comparable access.
For the 2027 concerts, standard prices were fixed in advance, and organisers confirmed that the disputed pricing model would not be used. That removed one source of uncertainty, though it did nothing to create more seats. With the official allocation gone, fans are being told to use only approved resale platforms and treat expensive social media offers with the suspicion they deserve.
