Fans of the Britpop band faced concert chaos this morning after experiencing a number of glitches when trying to nab tickets

Oasis fans who have been queuing for hours have been left outraged after seeing tickets listed on resale websites for as much as £7,250.

The general sale of official tickets, available on Tickemaster, Gigs and Tours and See Tickets, were opened to the public at 9am.


However, a number of fans hoping to see Noel and Liam Gallagher onstage together for the first time since 2009 witnessed the websites crash and queues jump around.

Fans are now devastated that tickets have been listed on resale websites, including Viagogo.

Resale tickets have been listed well-above the going rate, with Wembley Stadium seeing the maximum price put at a staggering £7,250.

Wembley’s cheapest official ticket costs just £74.25, with the most expensive which includes a premium service listed at £506.25.

Speaking to GB News, one fan said: “They’ve said they will cancel those tickets.

"The people who are putting tickets up on resale are a bunch of selfish t**s.

“We’re 40,000 in the queue for Cardiff. The stadium has a capacity of 74,500 plus floor space. I really hope I can get tickets.”

Another said: “People are already reselling tickets for crazy money.

“That can’t be allowed. I’m 80,000 in the queue. It’s so unfair.”

In a statement ahead of the general sale, Oasis said: “We have noticed people attempting to sell tickets on the secondary market since the start of the pre-sale.

“Please note, tickets can ONLY be resold, at face value, via Ticketmaster and Twickets.

“Tickets sold in breach of the terms and conditions will be cancelled by the promoters.”

Demand for Oasis tickets has been through the roof, with one fan claiming it was even harder than nabbing seats for Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour.

The Britpop band announced earlier this week that it would add additional dates in Manchester, London and Edinburgh due to the demand.
