Oasis are planning to sell fly swatters and ironing boards as part of their 2025 tour merchandise, it has been reported.

After 15 years of feuding, brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher announced this year they are – finally – going on a reunion tour next year.

The scramble was real, as millions tried – and many failed – to get their hands on UK and Ireland tickets amid dynamic pricing controversy, £100,000 tickets up on resale websites, and websites crashing.

But now the dates are set, the tickets are gone, and everyone’s basically crossing their fingers and toes that the Manchester siblings will remain on friendly terms for the whole run.

While it’s hard to know exactly how much Liam and Noel will pocket from their reunion, an expert predicted in an interview with The Sun the tour could earn over £400 million through tickets, sponsorship and merchandise, with the brothers taking home a reported £50m each.

Now, the publication has reported some specifics about their merchandise plans – which is said to involve some pretty boring household items including ironing boards, fly swatters, stationary and dental floss.

‘They have big plans for merchandise,’ a source said.

‘Millions of people wanted to get tickets to the shows and Oasis know they’ll also be splashing the cash on branded stuff.

‘The new trademark is for Oasis Live ’25 and covers everything.

‘Clothes pegs and Christmas wreaths, deodorants and moisturisers are also listed.’

We’re kind of obsessed with the idea of Oasis dental floss.

The Wonderwall hitmakers kick off their tour in Cardiff on July 4 2025, and are heading to their hometown of Manchester for five nights before flitting to London for another five shows.

They will also perform in Edinburgh and Dublin before flying across the pond for North America dates.

After huge demand, the band added extra UK dates, and will be wrapping up the tour on September27 and 28 in London.

This comes after dynamic pricing was controversially used on their initial UK and Ireland general sale.

Many fans queued for hours to land on the ticket page to see their only options £300 or more due to demand.

Ticketmaster said it does not set concert prices and its website states this is down to the ‘event organiser’ who ‘has priced these tickets according to their market value’.

While Oasis previously stated that they had no involvement in the decision to implement dynamic pricing, after huge backlash it was scrapped for the second round of sales on their added Wembley dates and for their North America tour.

Lucky fans who received a ballot code for the added Wembley dates had a comparably seamless purchasing experience, queueing for a short amount of time before purchasing their tickets within advertised price range of £74.25 to £206.25, with no inflated costs.

Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) confirmed they had received 450 individual complaints over ‘misleading claims on availability and pricing’ after the initial sale was blasted for dynamic pricing.

Sir Keir Starmer issued a statement on the problem, which gig-goers have been venting about for quite some time, stating it was ‘unfair’ on customers.

The Prime Minister told Matt Chorley on BBC Radio 5 Live on Monday: ‘This is really important, because this isn’t just an Oasis problem.’

He continued: ‘This is a problem for tickets for all sorts of events, where people go online straight away, as soon as they can, and within seconds sometimes, sometimes minutes, all the tickets are gone, and the prices start going through the roof, which means many people can’t afford it.

‘You have to stop that. We’re consulting on that.’

Metro has contacted Oasis representatives for comment.
