Oasis have added another date to their Australian tour after selling out four stadium shows in 90 minutes

R.Davis2 hr ago

Having announced the Australian leg of their Live '25 tour earlier this month, Oasis have added a fifth date to the schedule after shows in Melbourne and Sydney sold out in just 90 minutes.

The band will now play a third show at Melbourne's Marvel Stadium on November 4 next year, with fans in major centres Adelaide, Perth and Brisbane apparently missing out on local shows.

There will be a pre-sale for existing registered fans who were unsuccessful in the initial ballot, while the general sale will begin on Friday October 18 at 12pm AEDT.

"People of the land down under. You better run, you better take cover," instructed the band, announcing the original dates. "We are coming. You are most welcome."

Tickets for the first Oasis shows since 2009 sold out immediately in the British Isles and North America, but the UK and Ireland sale was mired in controversy over the use of 'dynamic pricing', which saw the cost of tickets unexpectedly skyrocket for many fans who'd queued for hours online.

The model was abandoned for the North American and Australian sales, with the Gallagher Brothers distancing themselves from the decision and their management saying, "It is widely accepted that dynamic pricing remains a useful tool to combat ticket touting and keep prices for a significant proportion of fans lower than the market rate and thus more affordable.

"But, when unprecedented ticket demand (where the entire tour could be sold many times over at the moment tickets go on sale) is combined with technology that cannot cope with that demand, it becomes less effective and can lead to an unacceptable experience for fans."

In September it was revealed that the UK government is set to investigate the issue .
