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”.
The announcement has been met with fury by fans.
Posting on X, Ethan Lak wrote: “So literally no one got a ticket through the Co-op presale for Liam Gallagher I’m sorry but that’s a joke terrible terrible service.” Also posting on X John Lomas wrote: “Sat in the queue from 9:00am and didn’t get a look in! Straight away on resale sites.”

Liam will be giving fans the chance to hear a number of songs that he rarely, if ever, performs when he heads out across the UK and Ireland in 2024 to play the Definitely Maybe album in full for the first time. And while it may not be the Oasis reunion that fans have been waiting for, there’s a chance the star could be joined by co-founding member Paul Arthurs (AKA Bonehead).
The tour kicks off in Sheffield on 2 June 2024 and concludes on 27 June – the day before Glastonbury kicks off. It will stop off in Cardiff, London Manchester, Glasgow and Dublin, with tickets available for general sale on .
Oasis’ 1994 debut became a defining work of the Britpop era and the tour will celebrate the 30th anniversary of the release of the massively influential record which spawned the likes of Rock ‘N’ Roll Star, Cigarettes and Alcohol, Slide Away and Columbia. The tour will include all the album tracks as well as a selection of choice B-sides.
