OASIS have sent a stark warning to fans after ‘thousands of fake tour tickets’ were discovered online.
The band had only just announced four more dates to their 2025 reunion shows, stopping off in Chicago, Toronto, New Jersey, Los Angeles and Mexico City.

But it has since come to their attention that there are counterfeit tickets being flogged online – going into four figures.
Liam and Noel Gallagher posted across their social media accounts yesterday to alert their fans to the criminal activity.
They wrote: “Please be aware. Thousands of fake Oasis tickets have already been discovered on StubHub and Vivid Seats before the North America tour has even gone on sale!”
Earlier this week, the band ruled out the use of dynamic pricing for their North American dates following fan outrage at the cost of tickets in the UK and Ireland.
Brothers Liam and Noel, who reunited in August, announced that the band would tour Canada, the US and Mexico.
The first performance will be in Toronto, Ontario, on August 24, 2025, with a second show in the city the following night.
Oasis will then head to the US for Chicago’s Soldier Field on August 28, the New York Giants’ MetLife Stadium on August 31 and September 1, and Los Angeles’ Rose Ball Stadium on September 6 and 7.
They will also play Mexico City on September 12 and 13.
A string of 19 UK and Ireland dates — including two extra Wembley shows — sold out and sparked a furore over inflated prices.
A statement from Oasis’ management said: “Ticketmaster‘s dynamic pricing model will not be applied to the forthcoming sale of tickets to Oasis concerts in North America.
“It is widely accepted that dynamic pricing remains a useful tool to combat ticket touting and keep prices for a significant proportion of fans lower than the market rate and thus more affordable.
“But, when unprecedented ticket demand (where the entire tour could be sold many times over at the moment tickets go on sale) is combined with technology that cannot cope with that demand, it becomes less effective and can lead to an unacceptable experience for fans.
“We have made this decision for the North America tour to hopefully avoid a repeat of the issues fans in the UK and Ireland experienced recently.”
