Oasis extra dates

24 replies

I've not seen another thread about this. But have read that Oasis are doing two extra Wembley dates. And that people who struggled to get tickets last Saturday will be prioritised.

Not sure what that's going to look like but keeping my fingers crossed 🤞

Yes, just read the same thing. 2 extra Wembley dates in September next year. Apparently there will be some kind of ballot and then staggered ticket sales or something to stop the fiasco that happened last time. Just waiting to find out how we apply for the ballot.

We should have got tickets. Was only 39000 in the queue and it just wouldn't let us put anything in the basket. 😞

That sucks! Was happening to lots of people I believe. I am not sure how the whole thing worked really. I joined the queue to get on Ticketmaster at 8.30am and couldn't even get in the queue to select tickets. Someone else I know joined at 8.55am and got through and got tickets? How the hell does that work?

Interested in this thread?

I'm hoping the people who missed out on the first ballad get the chance to re enter the second one.

Same story here. Joined in the queue at 8:30 and we weren't able to get tickets, but others who started the process at gone 9 did!?? For the same date and venue 🤦🏻‍♀️

I queued for hours got through then when I clicked on buy tickets I got thrown the back of the queue 😢

We joined at 815 and couldn't get through!

Apparently they will. Not sure how they will 'police' that but hope all of us who had such a crap experience trying to get tickets first time round will get a fairer chance this time.

No thanks

I was the same. Started at 17000 in front of me, steadily went down to 1, then there was none avaliable. No option to choose a different date or venue, just put you back in a queue, but this time a queue to browse the site.
I was so excited but not sure if I'll bother trying for the new dates or not. I'm sort of over it now.

Alongthepineconetrail · 04/09/2024 21:53

Well I suppose Noel has a massive divorce settlement to pay for so it makes sense to add additional dates. All the Oasis fans I know have been thrown out of the queue or just gave up trying. These will be even harder to get than the Taylor Swift tickets.

Hawkerslife · 04/09/2024 21:55

I panic bought a single ticket for 2nd August at about 1.30pm on Saturday after joining the queue at 98,000. It was a Platinum Dynamic Pricing ticket so i paid £492 for a lower bowl seat which would have been around £200 had I got it at 9am. Safe to say I resold it today via ticketmaster. It sold within 2 mins.

imforeverblowingbuttons · 05/09/2024 06:15

That was the other issue, once you got to the ticket page you couldn't look at other dates without re starting in the queue. Total farce!!

It was an absolute joke

We were on the website at 7.58 and didn't realise there was a waiting room as it hadn't refreshed until 8.15. We were 13,000 in the queue so should have got tickets.

As the egg timer to move from the queue to purchase, it sent us back tkt he join queue phase.

What we didn't realise quickly enough is that we just rejoined the queue it took us to the purchase page. But just kept getting the "something went wrong"
In the basket.

It wasn't clear about one device per household either.

Those who gave their email for the ballot last time. Did you get a confirmation email or nothing unless you were picked?

OP posts:

You got a confirmation email that you clicked through on after you applied but nothing else unless you were picked.

Ahh I never got one. I wonder if I put my email in correctly 😩 I was worried in case it meant I wouldn't be eligible for the second ballot but I actually got a email today.

Thanks for answering

So I got an email this morning inviting me to apply for ballot, filled in the form and no confirmation email yet, have I ballsed it up or is it taking a long time?

I'm the same, no confirmation yet but definitely put in the correct email address

WalterHWhite · 08/09/2024 13:47

I got the email but when I press continue, nothing happens! Has anyone else had this? Thanks

wonderstuff · 08/09/2024 13:56

Just got the click to confirm email

WalterHWhite · 08/09/2024 14:02

I’ve got to the register here, clicked on that, then please fill in the form carefully etc and a continue sign over my email address!

I'm completely over it after last Saturday and could not bear to give them any of my money anymore. I've gone right off the robbing bastards.
