Oasis fans have finally received their pre-sale ticket ballot codes – if they have been successful.
The Britpop group have confirmed the early-bird access will take place at 7pm this evening (August 30). Die-hard fans have been waiting all morning to find out if they among the lucky few who can snap up tickets early.

Taking to X – formerly known as Twitter – one fan begged: “Are people receiving the presale codes sporadically or have they all gone out at the same time??” Another added: “I’M ON EDGE!!!! #Oasis #presale I haven’t had a code as of yet.”
A third echoed: “Anyone had presale emails yet?? I’m so on edge.” Even fans who have received their pre-sale codes are still concerned. One fan declared: “My presale code has come through. Now it’s all fingers crossed for tonight.”
Another agreed: “There we land. Phase 1 complete” as a third echoed: “I step closer.” A fourth quipped: “Got a presale code.. probably still not get tickets.”
The Gallagher brothers are set to shock the world with a monumental Oasis reunion, ready to rock stages together for the first time in well over a decade. Dedicated fans had their fingers poised on Tuesday (August 27) to snap up pre-sale access for their 17-date whirl around the UK and Ireland next year.
But hordes of hopefuls were left hanging when the confirmation emails failed to land in their inboxes, leaving many to sweat over whether they’d even entered the presale race correctly. Many expected the pre-sale to kick off on Friday morning (August 30).
Meanwhile, dedicated fans waited to receive the pre-sale code or a time for when it will be released. It comes after the rock legends revealed they were having technical issues sending out the emails due to “unprecedented demand”.
In a desperate attempt to manage expectations, the band announced: “Due to a last minute surge in pre-sale ballot entries, a number of confirmation emails are still being processed and sent out. The deadline to confirm your entry has now been extended to 10am BST tomorrow morning (Friday 30th August).
“If successful in the ballot, you will be contacted tomorrow by 5pm BST with pre-sale access information. Thank you for your patience.”
Fans will have up until 5pm today to receive their pre-sale link. If they don’t get one by then, it means they were unsuccessful in the ballot. Tickets are being released on Saturday, August 31, 2024 at 9am and will be available from Ticketmaster here. They will also be on sale at See Tickets.
