Despite the warning from Oasis’ promoters, leading secondary ticket company Viagogo says that it will continue to sell tickets for the tour.
Matt Drew, who oversees business development for Viagogo, told File on 4: “Two percent of Oasis tickets are on Viagogo and Stubhub.
“We will continue to sell them in the way the regulator says we can. We are serving a clear consumer need, we will continue doing it on that basis.”
The resale of tickets in the UK is legal as long as tickets are acquired legitimately – and there are laws in place to protect consumers.
All events listed on the Viagogo website must inform buyers if the event prohibits the resale of tickets.
File on 4 has seen examples of ticket sellers from all over the world using secondary sites, including a trader in Hawaii selling 27 Oasis tickets at £793 each, another in Brazil offering up to 10 tickets for every gig on the tour; as well as sellers in Dubai, the Netherlands, Spain, Germany and Ukraine.
One ticket on Viagogo is on offer at £11,000; another on StubHub is listed for £119,000.
