Exactly how the Oasis ticket sale works as band share scam warning ahead of codes being sent out
Oasis fans have been issued a serious warning by the band ahead of tickets going on sale.
If the rules around getting a unique code to access tickets wasn't already confusing enough, then the band have warned that fans should be looking out for potential scams in their emails ahead of next summer's tour.
Emails from the band will be sent between Thursday (24 September) and Sunday (27 September) this week, which will include a specific code which even then doesn't guarantee a ticket for fans.
And with many no doubt desperate to act as quickly as possible once that email lands, it might be easy to click on a link from an email which doesn't actually belong to the band.

Posting on social media, Oasis wrote: "We have been made aware of possible Oasis ticket scams.
"As ticket information and unique codes are about to be distributed, please remain vigilant. Scammers may attempt to impersonate Oasis, our mailing list or our ticketing partners.
"Anyone promising you a code that does not come directly from Oasis is not genuine. Please do not accept a code that is not sent by [email protected] Any codes that are offered for sale are fraudulent and will not enable you to buy tickets."
Set to be another huge summer for fans, the hitmakers will play a mammoth 22 UK gigs, including five nights at Glasgow's Celtic Park in May followed by 11 nights at Manchester's Etihad Stadium in June next year.
They'll be heading on a European tour afterwards and a few dates in the United States before coming to Ireland for a couple of shows at Slane Castle on September 4 and 5.
Speculation around another tour had been building ever since Liam Gallagher closed the band's final Wembley Live '25 gig in 2025 by teasing the crowd: "See you next year."
Asked when the band decided to do another tour, Noel added: “It was after about the second Wembley show. Nobody really knew what was going to happen at the (time), well, you can see it on the documentary, but nobody really knew how it was going to go.
“So we did Cardiff and Manchester, and then by the time we got to Wembley, somebody said, ‘well, you know’, and it was decided we were going to do it, and it was all set in motion then.”
Unique code rules explained
So, for those of you who are lucky enough to get a code after registering earlier this month, what's the process once you actually have one?
Due to the anticipated extremely high demand for the 2027 tour, the band says on their website that they want to 'give genuine fans the best possible chance of getting tickets.'
Because of this, a registration process is in place to then be able to access the onsale. But everyone who wants to attend will need a special, unique code to gain access.
Fans have been urged to fill in their details for their chance to receive a unique code to then allow them to access on-sale tickets.
However, registrants will be chosen completely at random to receive a unique code. The terms state that registration does not guarantee fans will receive a code, or be able to buy tickets if they do so.
Upon registering, users can choose up to three cities, in order of preference. Those selected will receive the code to access the sale for one of the cities chosen.
The Oasis website states: "Unique code emails will be sent between Thursday 24 September and Sunday 27 September. Your unique code is valid only for your allocated city and onsale time.
"Check your email carefully. Onsale times vary by city and will take place between Friday 25 September and Sunday 27 September 2026.
"You can enter the waiting room up to 30 minutes before your onsale time using the dedicated link in the email."
Hopeful attendees will also need a Ticketmaster account to buy tickets and will need to use the email used for their Ticketmaster account to register for the process.
Ticketmaster have said fans will be able to get their space on the Oasis dates for the UK and Europe via them.
