Liam and Noel Gallagher will grace the stage at Croke Park on the nights of August 16th and 17th as part of the much anticipated Oasis tour which will also see them perform in locations such as Cardiff, Manchester, London, and Edinburgh.
The tickets for their Dublin performances will be available for purchase from this Saturday, August 31st, at 8am, a full hour before the tickets for their UK concerts are released.
The one-hour disparity between the sale timings may seem minor, but it could potentially lead to a significant rush from fans worldwide. Analysing the previous demands for artists like Taylor Swift and Coldplay, it is quite possible that the Dublin concert tickets will be sold out even before the British ticketing portals are accessible.
To etch the reunion tour in your memory forever, you need to stay active and vigilant.
To increase your chances of obtaining the Oasis Croke Park tickets, start with owning a Ticketmaster account right away. If you don’t, it’s pointless trying to create one when the tickets are on sale.
For those who already have an account, ensure you have your username and password ready. A last-minute scramble to recall whether you chose your first pet or your first child’s name as your password at 7.55am on Saturday might cost you the tickets.
A pro tip: set your alarm for no later than 7.30am and make turning on your computer your first move. Computers have a knack for slowing down when urgency is afoot, possibly to frustrate us. To avoid this, ensure your devices are up and running early, and make it a point to log in to your Ticketmaster account no later than 7.50am.
Before you rush to purchase tickets for that much-awaited Oasis reunion, you need to ensure you’re making the right selections on the ticket sales platform. A tribute act for Oasis could also be offering tickets during the weekend. Although potentially enjoyable, it’s essential to avoid purchasing these by mistake.
So why are Oasis calling for a reunion and what was the cause for their separation in the first place?
As the event countdown approaches its end, continually refresh your Ticketmaster event page until the Event Info tab changes to a button that says View Tickets. The F5 key can speed up this refreshing process. Crucially though, take care not to refresh excessively and speedily, as Ticketmaster’s algorithms may identify you as a bot, restricting your access to the site.
It’s advisable to keep just one browser window open to avert any error messages. However, the use of multiple devices and extra helping hands from family members can prove beneficial. Should you have access to a couple of laptops and a tablet, have them prepared and operational. Different devices could be assigned to varying concert dates if you have multiple options in mind. Then, lead the charge like a skilled conductor directing an orchestra.
Once the View Tickets button emerges, you need to act swiftly and make your selections. Each buyer is allowed a maximum of four tickets. Always select the default best available option. If tickets are offered to you, decide quickly to avoid wasting precious time contemplating between row F or G.
After managing to secure the tickets, progress swiftly to the next step in the ticket-buying journey. There’s a brief window to finalize your purchase. Be prepared for your bank to request verification for the transaction, so keep all the necessary details within reach.
While you may be eager to receive your tickets, they will not be instantly available. Typically, you will only gain access to your virtual tickets a few days prior to the concert. When they do appear, ensure you download and save them in your virtual wallet ahead of the event.
Be extremely cautious if any tickets become available for purchase in the forthcoming months. If a ticket is proposed to you on a social media platform, view this proposition with utmost skepticism, unless you have a personal acquaintance with the individual who is offering the ticket.
Before we delve into such discussions, it must be noted that the ‘ballot registration’ for the 2025 UK and Ireland tour, as mentioned by the band on their X page, commenced on Tuesday evening. According to the post, the presale of tickets, aiming to give all fans an equitable chance to secure tickets, will take place on Friday, August 30 in preparation for the general sales on the following Saturday.
Subscribers to the ballot registrations, which are open now and will shut at 7PM BST on Wednesday, August 28, will be chosen for the pre-sale. Those who are successful in the ballot will receive an email containing all the necessary details on Friday, August 30. However, it must be stressed that succeeding in the ballot doesn’t necessarily guarantee a ticket. Tickets will be issued on a ‘first come, first served’ basis.
A secondary post also confirms that due to a considerably large number of entries, the confirmation emails could be deferred. Nonetheless, everyone who completes the ballot form correctly prior to 7PM on Wednesday, August 28 will receive the confirmation email.
Consider yourselves forewarned!
