Last week, the band confirmed they would be spilling more information on Monday (September 14) with the help of a huge drone display above Manchester’s Etihad Stadium. On Thursday night (September 10) the band’s black and white logo lit up the Manchester skies over the stadium, followed by the date of 14.9.26 at 4pm BST.

The display of drones was 120 metres long and emerged from the ground of Man City’s women’s team, the Joie Stadium. It rose above the ground, next to the Etihad Stadium, where onlookers grabbed video and pictures for ten minutes before it disappeared.

The imminent tour announcement comes after months of speculation of a 2027 tour. Adding fuel to the fire, over the last two weeks, Oasis have been posting social media teasers on Instagram which has included clues to a different city or venue.

The teases, and likely tour dates have included Glasgow, Manchester, Amsterdam, Munich, Barcelona, Madrid, Rome and Boston. Slane Castle and Knebworth have also been rumoured, as well as a potential Las Vegas residency.

The MEN understands from music industry sources that tickets are likely to go on sale by the end of this week. Last time, when the tour was announced in August 2024, presale started on the Friday, followed by a general sale on the Saturday.

It sparked an almighty rush for tickets, as Oasis fans from across the globe scrambled to secure their place at one of the biggest series of gigs in decades.

Roughly 14 million fans tried to buy tickets for the Oasis Live ’25 reunion tour. More than 10 million people from 158 countries queued online at peak times on ticketing platforms like Ticketmaster.

However, only about 1.4 million to 2.2 million tickets were available across the UK and Ireland tour dates, which meant many left empty handed. Meanwhile, those that were successful were met by rather steep prices.

Last time, face-value tickets for Oasis Live ’25 started at £73 to £74 for basic seated tickets and cost around £135 to £151 for general admission standing. However, as many fans remember, demand drove face-value and resale rates much higher to around £350.

Whilst tickets are not guaranteed to the 2027 tour, there are a number of steps fans can take today to give themselves the best possible chance for when tickets hopefully go on sale this week.

Below, you’ll find five tips for navigating ticket platforms including Ticketmaster, including what devices to queue on, rules around refreshing your page, and having payment details pre-saved.

Create an account and make sure it is verified

Sign up on Ticketmaster or other ticket selling platforms before tickets go on sale. Add (or update) your payment and delivery info for faster checkout. Add your phone number and verify your account with a one-time code.

Get everything ready

Charge your devices, sign in to your Ticketmaster account, clear your browser’s cache, and avoid using a VPN. Make sure you have sufficient funds in your registered bank account too, otherwise the payment may fail and cost you time as you go back in the virtual queue.

The waiting room

The waiting room (if there is one) will usually open 15 minutes before the sale. Once the queue opens, you’ll be told where you are in line.

While some people advise refreshing ten seconds before the ticket sale starts, once the sale has started, do not refresh when you’re in the actual queue. You could lose your place and be booted to the back of the queue.

Load Ticketmaster in one browser window only

Although you might think you have more chance with multiple tabs, it may actually hinder you. It will only allow one booking at a time so you may end up losing your tickets if you’re going between tabs. Instead try on different devices.

Website or app?

You can use both. Some people reckon the app is smoother, but you may as well increase your chances using your laptop and phone.
