Ballot registration has opened for the sale of tickets to the two Oasis concerts in Croke Park next summer, in advance of Saturday’s general sale, the band announced.
A post to the band’s X page said: “Register for the UK and Ireland 2025 tour presale ballot. A ticket presale will be held on Friday 30th August, in advance of Saturday’s general sale. To ensure the maximum number of fans have a fair opportunity to access tickets, applicants will be selected for the presale via a ballot.

The post added: “Successful applicants will receive an email with full access information the morning of Friday 30th August. Success in the ballot will not guarantee tickets. Tickets will be allocated on a first come first served basis.”
A second post said Confirmation emails “may be delayed” due to “an extremely high volume of entries”, adding “everyone who has correctly filled out the ballot form before 7pm Wednesday 28th August will receive the confirmation email”.

Liam and Noel Gallagher confirmed Oasis’s long-awaited reunion with a worldwide tour in 2025 on Tuesday, saying: “The great wait is over.”
The Britpop band, who split nearly 15 years ago and released their chart-topping album Definitely Maybe around three decades ago, announced the series of dates will kick off at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium.
The UK and Ireland tour will also visit Manchester’s Heaton Park, London’s Wembley Stadium, Edinburgh’s Murrayfield Stadium and Dublin’s Croke Park throughout July and August next year.
Noel, 57, quit the Manchester rock group on August 28th, 2009, saying he “simply could not go on working with Liam a day longer”.
Fans have been pleading with the brothers to regroup since they disbanded, prompted by a backstage brawl at the Rock en Seine festival in Paris.
Reunion rumours have intensified recently after they teased an announcement for 8am on Tuesday, and reports that the feuding brothers were ending their disagreement.

Confirming the Oasis Live 25 tour, they said: “The guns have fallen silent. The stars have aligned. The great wait is over. Come see. It will not be televised.”
Despite speculation that a Glastonbury slot could be in the works, the Worthy Farm event will not see Oasis on the bill, the PA news agency understands.
Abbey Road Studios, the famous London recording studio where Oasis recorded multiple songs, described the band’s reunion as “history”.
The studio posted that single word as it joined tens of thousands who commented beneath the band’s announcement on Instagram, where BBC Radio 2 also commented: “They’re back!”
Alan McGee, the music executive who signed Oasis to his label, Creation Records, in 1993, posted to the platform: “Good for music. Good for them. Good for us.” – PA
