Oasis have revealed the two extra UK dates announced by the band will be sold in a different way than before.
The news comes after all Oasis gigs sold out within hours last Saturday.
The band announced the news through their X account sharing a post which read, "two extra Wembley Stadium shows have been added due to phenomenal demand.
The post explained how the tickets will be sold differently than for first release of dates.
"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," it read.
This suggest that those who were unlucky enough to make the queue, but ultimately miss out on Saturday could be first in line for these two extra Wembley Stadium.
Until more information is released it is still uncertain whether the controversial 'dynamic pricing system' will be in action as well if tickets will subsequently be opened to the general public after a period of time.
The band have caused nationwide fanfare after the Gallagher brothers would be getting back together just over a week ago.
Liam and Noel Gallagher will perform live together for the first time since 2009 when they will play concerts in Cardiff, Edinburgh, London, Manchester and Dublin in July and August next year.
When they announced the reunion tour, anticipation for the dates was at fever pitch, with some predicting demand for tickets would be greater than it was for Taylor Swift’s concerts this year.
The hype did not disappoint either with a reported 500,000 people in online queues in supersonic speed causing all the ticket distributors to encounter problems.
Gigs and Tours and See Tickets seemed to experience issues from 8:30am until 12:30pm.
A spokesperson for Ticketmaster claimed the site did not crash despite the hundred, maybe even thousands, of screenshots online of the same 503 error.
Fans kept their hopes up all day as they desperately searched for a last gasp grab at (morning) glory, however were ultimately left crying their hearts out when prices on sites sky rocketed as availability dwindled.
Oasis made the announcement at 7pm last night that every last ticket for every single gig had sold, with the band selling out in under 12 hours (not bad for a couple of middle aged blokes!).
The band warned fans of counterfeit tickets and that tickets could only be resold at face value on the relevant sites they were bought from.
The Gallaghers came under heavy fire on Saturday after ticket prices skyrocketed as more and more sold, with a 'dynamic pricing system' raising ticket prices to €350.
