Tickets for Liam Gallagher's huge new tour celebrating the 30th anniversary of Oasis' debut album 'Definitely Maybe' go on general sale this morning. Demand is expected to be high as fans of all things Britpop scramble to get tickets to hear the entire iconic album played live in full for the first time.

Gallagher announced the news of the surprise tour, which has also seen increased hopes of a full Oasis reunion, via social media platform X, saying: "I'm bouncing around the house to announce the Definitely Maybe Tour. The most important album of the ‘90s bar none. I wouldn't be anywhere without it and neither would you, so let’s celebrate together LG x"

Twelve shows have been confirmed so far, with Gallagher set to perform dates in Sheffield, London, Glasgow, Cardiff, Dublin and Manchester from June 1, 2024. Tickets will be on sale from 9am today (Friday, October 20) via Ticketmaster, LiveNation and SeeTickets.

We'll have everything you need to know as the general sale starts, from prices to tips and advice on how to get the best chance to snag those all important tickets so stay with us this morning as we prepare for the launch.

Limited availability for London

Disappointment for fans who haven't reached the front of the queue yet. I joined the waiting room for The O2 shortly before 9am and haven't reached got to even see the tickets yet and Ticketmaster has sent a pop-up warning.

Ticketmaster's update as at 9.18am was:

Due to demand, ticket availability is limited and ticket options may vary throughout the venue. Best availability for The O2, London is on 11th June 2024.

Our advice is if you're in the Ticketmaster queue stay there, but remember LiveNation and SeeTickets are also selling tickets for these dates. Open a new tab and join queues on each platform to try and maximise your chances.

Ticketmaster update

It looks like ticket availability is now very slow:

Due to demand, ticket availability is limited and ticket options may vary throughout the venue.

However I would advise that you stay in the queue. Tickets do tend to come available as people drop out of the checkout process.

Reports of less than 7,000 in the queue for London

It seems demand for London is a little less than that of Manchester with a colleague of mine reporting less than 7,000 in the queue there.

No sign of extra dates so we do expect tickets to sell out fairly quickly this morning.

Tens of thousands in the queue

Queues are now open but I can see over 35,000 people ahead of me in the queue for a Manchester date.

That seems to be the case everywhere. However, See Tickets does not have a queue as it stands.

If you are in the Ticketmaster queue do not refresh your page.

Minutes to go

You can now join the Ticketmaster waiting room. Head to this page and choose your venue and it should look something like this.

Once you join the waiting room it will then move you to the queue once the ticket sale opens. The earlier you join the better chance you have of buying tickets.

Ticket prices for Liam Gallagher

How much are you going to pay?

The team at Manchester Evening News say the cheapest tickets in the city will be around £53.

Fans can expect to pay from around £53 for the cheaper seats towards the back of arenas, up to £108 for the best seats in the house. Prices vary depending on the venue you are applying for and their ticket grading systems.

Also, be warned that venue prices are not the same as ticket agent prices - as they add on their own fees separately so these may fluctuate on the day of buying.

It has also been confirmed that £1 of every ticket sold will be going to the War Child charity.

Tickets will be on sale from 9am today (Friday, October 20) via Ticketmaster, LiveNation and SeeTickets.

Let's talk strategy

In the last few years Ticketmaster has updated how it does these big events. First of all you will be able to join a waiting room here before 9am.

That will then put you into the queue. Once you are in the queue you will be given a number (often reaching into the tens of thousands). It is important that you do not refresh this page or you may be sent to the back of the queue.

Once you reach the front of the queue you will be able to choose your tickets. However, Ticketmaster will ask you to log in to your account. You do not want to be messing around with that so the best thing to do is to log in now. If you don't have an account create one in advance.

I would also recommend opening another tab for SeeTickets, which doesn't usually have a queue but does have fewer tickets available.

Full list of dates so far

We're an hour away from launch, so now feels like a good time to look at the shape of the tour as announced so far. There are 12 dates announced for the UK and Ireland so far (although there are some notable gaps that might suggest some additional nights could be incoming) with all of them set to go on general sale from 9am via Ticketmaster, LiveNation and SeeTickets.

The full list of dates and venues announced so far is as follows:

June 2nd – Sheffield, Utilita Arena

June 3rd – Cardiff, Utilita Arena

June 6th – London, The O2

June 7th – London, The O2

June 10th – London, The O2

June 15th – Manchester, Co-op Live

June 16th – Manchester, Co-op Live

June 19th – Glasgow, OVO Hydro

June 20th – Glasgow, OVO Hydro

June 23rd – Dublin, 3Arena

June 24th – Dublin, 3Arena

June 27th – Manchester, Co-op Live

Ticketmaster updates on availability

Demand for all three of Liam Gallagher's hometown shows in Manchester are seeing huge demand.

Posting on X, formerly Twitter, this morning Co-op Live wrote: “Demand for Liam Gallagher has been exceptionally high, and Co-op Member presale tickets are no longer available. General sale opens at 9:00am on Friday, when more tickets will be made available”.

That means there will be a queue system in place on Ticketmaster.

Stay tuned to our live blog though. There are things you can do to increase your chances of buying tickets and we will be checking availability from 9am to let you know where your best chances are.
