Oasis announce plans to release MORE tickets ahead of reunion stadium tour as iconic Britpop band prepare for first live shows in 17 years
The iconic Britpop band have reunited for a series of stadium shows across the United Kingdom, Ireland, Japan, South Korea and North, Central and South America, commencing at Cardiff's Principality Stadium on July 4.
The Live '25 tour will be their first since the band's acrimonious implosion and subsequent disbandment during the ill-fated Dig Out Your Soul tour in 2008.
A statement posted to the band's official website on Wednesday reads: 'As the shows are getting closer, Oasis promoters may be able to release a very limited number of additional tickets for sale once final sight lines are checked and the production is fine tuned.
'These final production releases will happen over the coming days.'

Oasis support act says first show will be 'a moment' hours before concert starts
John Power of Cast has opened up about supporting Oasis, with the band opening the first show in 16 years tomorrow to a sold-out Principality Stadium in Cardiff Cast's John Power has shared an insight into the Oasis reunion tour which kicks off tomorrow. The Liverpudlian and his bandmates will take to the stage at Cardiff's Principality Stadium on Friday night, in front of a sold-out crowd as they open the entire tour. Almost 15 years to the day after fans last saw Noel and Liam Gallagher on stage, the brothers announced last August that they had put their differences aside and would be joining forces again. Now, almost 12 months after that euphoric announcement, the wait is almost over. Tomorrow, they'll take to the stage to perform some of their biggest hits for the first time in 16 years, a concert that fans would have never expected. The band will be joined by Cast and Richard Ashcroft across the mammoth shows taking place in Cardiff, Manchester, Edinburgh, London and Dublin. But just hours before the doors open, John, 57, has shared his excitement, given that he and his bandmates will be the first people to perform on the tour. Speaking on Virgin Radio UK, he said: "Opening for the Oasis, it's gonna be amazing. The first chord of this tour is going to be one that I hit. "I'm just about now getting excited. I mean, the thing is, the way I live my life and look at things is, I kind of take each day as it comes and not try and look too far ahead. But there's no doubt about it now that, you know, Friday is upon us, and the first chord of this tour is going to be one I hit. Click here for the Mirror's live updates on the Oasis tour. "So it's a quite, a you know, it's going to be quite a moment, I think, Cardiff, Principality Stadium." It comes as no surprise that Cast have joined the bill, with the band having opened for Liam last year on his Definitely Maybe tour, celebrating the 30th anniversary of Oasis' debut album of the same title. Meanwhile, Noel had previously said watching the band was similar to a "religious experience." Speaking to NME last year about the tour, John said: "We're blown away by it. "We had the nod and were just waiting for the official announcement. Now we can bask in it. It's a stamp of approval from our peers, and I appreciate that massively." He went on to say: "It kind of reaffirms our legacy and authenticates the road and journey that we've been on as a band. And now us, Richard Ashcroft and Oasis – talk about Northern Soul! That's some line-up." But John's connection with Oasis goes back decades, having met Liam when he was just 16. John had gone to see his former band, The Las's, playing in Manchester, when a bold Mancuian teen approached him while he was outside smoking, asking for a cigarette. He declined, saying he was having a moment. Three years later, when Oasis were launching with their debut single Supersonic, John went to see them live. "I went to see them," he told Mojo. He added: "And Liam came straight over to me and was like: 'You told me to f**k off!' It was him, he must have been about 16 back then." But the pair went on to laugh about the situation and the groups have since become great friends. Get Oasis updates straight to your WhatsApp!

Will the Principality Stadium roof be open for the Oasis gigs?
Will the Principality Stadium roof be open for the Oasis gigs? Oasis take to the Principality Stadium on Friday, July 4 and Saturday, July 5, but will the roof be open? Will the Principality Stadium roof be open or closed for Oasis? (Image: Huw Evans Picture Agency ) The inaugural night of Oasis Live '25 at Cardiff's Principality Stadium on Friday, July 4, is almost here. Those who've experienced a gig in the Welsh capital, or attended one of its numerous major sporting events, will be familiar with the unique charm of the Principality and its retractable roof. This crucible of Welsh rugby is perfectly suited to closed-roof concerts, with sound ricocheting off the towering metal structure, creating an electrifying atmosphere and a deafening space filled with cheers and song. Conversely the open-air option lends the music a sense of liberation, evoking a summery, festival vibe. Oasis fans will be thrilled to learn that for their opening dates in Cardiff the roof will remain shut, according to the fan guide distributed to Ticketmaster customers. The Principality Stadium will be the place that the famous Gallagher brothers, Noel and Liam, reunite for the first time since the band split. Cardiff is expected to be incredibly busy with thousands of fans and many road closures and you can read everything you need to know about the gig here. There will also be extra trains put on to help fans get home and disruption to bus routes due to the road closures. Gates to the Principality Stadium open at 5pm for both gigs. The first support act announced was Richard Ashcroft, the former lead singer of The Verve and completing the line-up is Scouse band Cast. Cast will begin their set at 6pm, Richard Ashcroft his at 7pm and Oasis are expected to be on stage at 8.15pm. You can read more here. Tickets for the Oasis reunion sold out across all venues due to huge demand when they went online earlier in the year. However, there are still several options available for fans trying to snag a last-minute spot. Limited last-minute tickets can be bought from the official Ticketmaster resale site, where fans who can no longer go can sell their seats, although these tend to go in and out of stock quickly. Article continues below Elsewhere, resale sites like Viagogo, Vivid Seats, StubHub, and Twickets are selling tickets for various dates with prices from £121, although fans should always bear in mind that many official sites, such as Ticketmaster and Live Nation, discourage the purchase of resale tickets.

Oasis fan sells ticket to opening gig after Liam Gallagher post
Oasis fan sells ticket to opening gig after Liam Gallagher post 'As an Asian and as a Chinese person I could not deal with it just by keeping silent and accepting what he was saying' Yue Xiong, who is originally from Shanghai in China but now lives in London, said she had been a huge fan of Oasis since she was 16 but has decided not to go to the Cardiff gig because of Liam's recent comments (Image: WalesOnline ) An Oasis fan has said she was left "completely heartbroken" and decided to sell her ticket to the opening gig for Oasis following frontman Liam Gallagher's now-deleted social media post, which included an offensive phrase. The 52-year-old singer came under fire after he used a racial slur on X, formerly known as Twitter. Social media users were quick to respond to the post with one fan telling him: "Liam, you can't say that" after he had posted an offensive term that is used to mock or imitate languages spoken in China or people from east Asia or of east Asian descent. Liam deleted the post and issued an apology. He wrote: "Sorry if I offended anyone with my tweet before it wasn't intentional you know I love you all and I do not discriminate. Peace and love LG x". However some fans have expressed dismay over the matter. Read the biggest stories in Wales first by signing up to our daily newsletter here . Yue Xiong, who is originally from Shanghai in China but now lives in London, said she had been a huge fan of the Mancunian band since she was 16 years old and that their music had "saved [her] life". However Yue described Liam's remark as "completely not acceptable". As a result the Goldsmiths student said she had sold her ticket for the opening night of Oasis' reunion tour, Live '25, in Cardiff on Friday, July 4. Article continues below On Thursday the 23-year-old student had decided to travel to Cardiff for the day to protest. Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher came under fire for his recent post on X (Image: GETTY ) "I've been I've been a huge fan since 2017," she told WalesOnline. "All of my adolescence I was just listening to Oasis – it got me through life and the music really saved my life. "But I kind of stopped being a fan two days ago because what Liam said is completely not acceptable. As an Asian and as a Chinese person I could not deal with it just by keeping silent and accepting what he was saying." She added: "I just can't participate in that anymore. Otherwise it will be disrespectful for my own community where I come from." Yue also said she was disheartened by the lack of response to Liam's comment. She said: "I felt people would need to speak up about it. "So if no-one talks about it it just add more pressure to everything. But I felt the need to say something. "It is not okay for someone to say something extremely racial, targeting an Asian community, on a social platform." Yue explained that she had sold her ticket on Wednesday, after the incident, as a "gesture" – two days before she was intending on heading to the Cardiff gig. Although she said she was sad about giving away her ticket she said she would be "completely heartbroken" if she attended the show. Being an avid fan Yue also said she had met Noel Gallagher a few times and issued an apology to the singer-songwriter for not attending the Cardiff show, saying she still admired him and his music. Despite Liam issuing an apology Yue explained she felt like it was not enough. "It was not sincere," she said. "It was not really an apology. I see it more as a PR strategy but it's not even enough for a PR move because what he said was extremely controversial and when people pointed it out he said: 'Whatever'. "He didn't see it as a problem. He then deleted that tweet. So he definitely feels it is not appropriate for him to say anything like that." While Yue said she would not be attending the gig she visited Cardiff a day before the gig as a protest. When asked about her reasons for protesting she said: "The C-word is not acceptable in any circumstances. "If Liam said the N-word or anything against transgender people the media would stand up for that community. But it seems like it's okay for people to treat and make fun of the Asian community like that." She added: "[The protest] is not coming out as an attack to Oasis but it's about defending our own right – it's about speaking up for our own community. It's about making the world right again." She continued: "My partner, he's white, his friends and people in the industry found it not acceptable. But they were just really surprised as nobody said anything about it. "I've been talking to loads in the Chinese community fan groups. They're completely shattered, they're completely heartbroken." Oasis will be performing in Cardiff's Principality Stadium on Friday, July 4, and Saturday, July 5, with fans flocking to the Welsh capital in the lead up to the event.
