Gallagher brothers are coming to America! On the morning of Monday the 30th, Oasis announced five dates for their live'25 in North America.
Scheduled for 2025, the band's reunion will kick off its continental tour on August 24th in Toronto, Canada. Following that, they will head to the United States with shows in Chicago (August 28th), East Rutherford (August 31st), and Los Angeles (September 6th). Finally, they will conclude the tour with a single performance in Mexico City on September 12th.
Tickets for this leg of the tour will be available starting October 4th through Live Nation and Ticketmaster.
The announcement
In videos posted to their official Instagram profile, the band used fan comments and international newspaper articles to announce the dates and locations, and took the opportunity to tease their fans. “America. Oasis is coming. You have one last chance to prove you loved us all along,” they wrote in one post. In another post aimed at their Mexican audience, the group wrote in Spanish: “People of Mexico, get ready. The Brothers are on their way.”
Oasis VS scalpers
Following the problems that occurred in September involving ticket prices in the UK and Ireland, Oasis took steps to prevent a recurrence. It turns out that tickets advertised at around £150 ended up costing more than 50 times that amount due to scalping and Ticketmaster's dynamic pricing policy, which exorbitantly increased prices due to high demand.
For their North American shows, Oasis will not be using Ticketmaster's dynamic pricing model and has stated through its official profiles that the tool is useful, but that it can be disruptive due to the magnitude of some shows. “[…] when unprecedented demand for tickets (where the entire tour could be sold out the moment tickets go on sale) is combined with technology that can't handle that demand, it becomes less effective and can lead to an unacceptable experience for fans,” wrote the band's management.
Another measure was the creation of a questionnaire with three questions to prevent scalpers from accessing pre-sale registrations. The questions involve how many shows the band has seen, which show you are interested in buying a ticket for, and when was the last time they were in North America. The quiz makes it clear that you need to answer the questions correctly to be eligible for the pre-sale "quota".
Registration for the pre-sale ticket raffle is now available on the official Oasis website .
