Liam's comments come after TWO new shows added at Wembley Stadium on 27th and 28th September 2025.
The tickets will be sold by a staggered invitation-only ballot process, offered initially to those who were not lucky in the sale last week.
Taking to social media this Wednesday (4th September), the Britpop legends explained: "Two extra Wembley Stadium shows have been added due to phenomenal demand.
"Tickets will be sold by a staggered, invitation-only ballot process. Applications to join the ballot will be opened first to the many UK fans who were unsuccessful in the initial on sale with Ticketmaster. More details to follow."

An official press release read: "Inevitably interest in this tour is so overwhelming that it’s impossible to schedule enough shows to fulfil public demand. But this ticket sale strategy will make the process far smoother for fans by reducing the stress and time it takes to obtain one of the hottest tickets of our time."
Oasis' PR noted that over 10 million people from 158 countries joined the queue last Saturday.
"As for the well reported complaints many buyers had over the operation of Ticketmaster’s dynamic ticketing: it needs to be made clear that Oasis leave decisions on ticketing and pricing entirely to their promoters and management, and at no time had any awareness that dynamic pricing was going to be used.
"While prior meetings between promoters, Ticketmaster and the band’s management resulted in a positive ticket sale strategy, which would be a fair experience for fans, including dynamic ticketing to help keep general ticket prices down as well as reduce touting, the execution of the plan failed to meet expectations.
"All parties involved did their utmost to deliver the best possible fan experience, but due to the unprecedented demand this became impossible to achieve."
