Oasis are finally reuniting 15 years after they split, having announced a huge UK tour.
The iconic Manchester band’s official social media accounts shared the dates of its 14 UK and Ireland shows, which will take place over July and August next year.
Speculation about a reunion grew in the weeks leading up to the announcement after years of Noel and Liam Gallagher’s public feuding had made fans question whether it would ever happen.
“Come see. It will not be televised,” they warned in their statement.
But when exactly are the dates for the brothers’ on-stage reunion and how can you get tickets? Here’s everything you need to know.

All tickets will go on sale on Saturday 31 August.
The Dublin dates will be on sale from 8am and the UK dates will go on sale at 9am.
Tickets for UK performances can be bought from the following sites:
• ticketmaster.co.uk
• gigsandtours.com
• www.seetickets.com
For the Ireland dates you need to go to ticketmaster.ie.
Be warned: you must register
The band’s official website has “strongly advised” anyone hoping to purchase tickets to register in advance of the sale with the relevant ticket agencies.
Top tips for getting tickets
The ticket sites offer key advice for fans looking to have an edge over others in the race for in-demand tickets.
Here’s a summary of their biggest tips:
• Don’t wait until Saturday morning to register. This will mean you have plenty of time to get your account set up with all the right billing and delivery information
• Verify your account. You have to add your phone number and confirm a one-time passcode with new accounts for protection. You only need to do it once
• If you already have an account, double-check it. It’s worth logging in before Saturday just to check you know your password, your delivery and billing information is all correct, and to ensure you’ve already completed your one-time passcode
• Make sure your card details are already saved to avoid last-minute scrambling
• Get your phones and laptops charged before the deadline
• Make sure you’re happy with your internet connection. Private WiFi is best, and if that isn’t working, Ticketmaster advises using your mobile data over public WiFi, which it says is “usually the least reliable”
• Don’t refresh the page while in a waiting room. Ticketing sites use a queuing system when they get busy, meaning you get put in an online waiting room with other fans. They warn that refreshing the page won’t move you further up the line, and that the page itself updates automatically. So once you’re in, wait it out…
How many tickets can I buy and how expensive could they be?
You can get a maximum of four tickets per transaction, and you aren’t permitted to sell them for more than you bought them for, according to event organisers.
The price of tickets hasn’t been announced yet, though the Manchester Evening News has reported they are expected to exceed £100.

A timeline of Britpop’s most successful band
Back in 2009, just over a month before Oasis split, the band performed at Wembley Stadium and charged £38.50 plus VAT (which at the time was 15%), meaning the total cost was just over £44.
When Sky News put those numbers into the Bank of England’s inflation calculator, the total was £68.02 – which is still considered low nowadays.
Do you even deserve tickets?
Since the announcement, social media has been flooded by debate about who this concert is really for.
“What’s your favourite B-side?” – an eligibility test being used by people who “were at Knebworth”.
Die-hard Oasis fans who were there in the 90s will say they are the ones who most deserve to get their hands on tickets.
“Imagine waiting 15 years for Oasis to reform only to lose out on tickets to Chloe, 21 from Stockport who just wants to hear Wonderwall live”, one X user posts.
In response, another writes: “Obsessed with all the men creating fictional young women who they might lose out on Oasis tickets to.”
Analysis by Gemma Peplow, culture and entertainment reporter
“Like most kids, my parents influenced my music taste growing up, from Bruce Springsteen and Tina Turner to the Rolling Stones.
“Kylie Minogue, obviously, was also a big feature in my cassette collection.
“But Oasis were the first band that felt like mine, not music I’d inherited.
“As a teenager I listened over and over, studied the album covers, and went on to see them live five times, each gig holding different memories and anecdotes. For those of us who grew up with them, they embodied our youth, the spirit of the ’90s.
“But that doesn’t mean these gigs belong to the older fans, which, like it or not, is the bracket I fall into now. You only have to see all the teenagers and younger adults at Liam’s solo shows to see how Oasis’s songs resonate with different generations. The music has stood the test of time, which can only be a good thing.
“Those gatekeeping fans are most likely the same as those complaining about how all music is rubbish these days. Well, you can’t have it both ways.
“If I’m lucky enough to get tickets, I hope to be singing along with bucket-hat wearing fans of all ages.”
