Those who missed out on Edinburgh Oasis tickets are in luck, as 8,000 are due to go on sale in the coming days.
The highly anticipated reunion tour will hit Murrayfield Stadium this summer and the council has given the green light to increase the stadium's capacity.
The warring Gallagher brothers got over their brotherly spat in order to cash in on one of the biggest comeback tours in British music history - performing three sold out shows in August in the capital as well as elsewhere in the UK, the Record reports.
On Monday, an application to Edinburgh City Council's licensing board to increase Murrayfield's capacity from 67,130 to 69,990 was approved - much to the delight of Scots Oasis fans.
Councillor Louise Young, licensing board convener, said: 'An application to increase the capacity at Murrayfield for the upcoming Oasis concerts was approved by the Licensing Board on June 23.

Earlier this week the Gallagher brothers released a statement about releasing more tickets. They penned: "As the shows are getting closer, Oasis promoters may be able to release a very limited number of additional tickets for sale once final sight lines are checked and the production is fine tuned."
It continued: "These final production releases will happen over the coming day."
Fans who are members of Oasismynet have been urged to keep an eye on their inboxes for updates. "If you are an Oasismynet member, keep an eye on your inbox for an email from your regular Oasismynet or Ticketmaster correspondence address," the message added.
"Please double check the email is from the correct account before following links or sharing any purchase information."
Fans were quick to take to the comments to voice their opinion on the limited ticket release, with mixed reviews. One fan simply stated: "Shaking in my boots."
As another expressed their excitement: "I bagged some for Wembley in the extra release, happy days."
The brothers are set to play in various cities across the UK - Cardiff, Manchester, London and Edinburgh - before taking the tour internationally. However, tickets for the UK dates have been a topic of conversation for months with the various problems fans had getting their hands on them.

Some fans previously claimed they were targeted by scammers as they attempted to find tickets for the gigs. The band have warned fans over scams, and told to be selective about where they buy their tickets to make sure they are legit.
Many of the tickets offered at the moment have been from various online websites that aren't genuine, from unverified brands and individual scammers who are selling fake tickets on social media.

'Inspiring' Lewis Capaldi surprises fans again after secret Glastonbury set
Lewis Capaldi surprised another set of festival goers a day after his Glastonbury performance and was hailed for being an inspiration Lewis Capaldi has been at it again after an emotional Glastonbury comeback on Friday. The Scottish singer stunned the Worthy Farm crowd with a surprise set at this year's festival. But it wasn't just the British fans he wanted to make it up to. Taking to Instagram on Saturday, the Someone You Loved singer, 28, wrote: "Had to come back and make it up to you all x" And in similar fashion to his gig a day earlier, Lewis surprised fans in Switzerland after previously having to pull out of a show in 2023. The clip shared by Lewis showed the crowd being told in Switzerland in 2023: "Lewis Capaldi can't sing for us right now. "So we're going to sing for Lewis Capaldi." The scenes showed how the crowd at the time at OpenAir St Gallen coming together to show support for the star by singing his hit tune. Lewis then told his followers: "You filled in for me when I couldn't be there." And a video then showed him walking back on stage to huge applause as he said: "Switzerland 2025 I wanted to make it up to you." After waving at his adoring crowd, he then said: "My name's Lewis Capaldi and I'm f***ing back baby. Here we go." He paused mid song once again to emotionally take in the moment as the crowd serenaded him. As he finished the song he shared a sweet laugh at the scenes as fans flashed love heart signs with their hands. Fans in the comment section were keen to also share their support to the pop star. One user gushes: "The LEGEND IS BACK," while another praised: "What a comeback," with a love heart emoji. A third told him: "You are so incredibly loved. It was great to see you on that stage," an another added: "This is why we need to support each other with understanding, support and grace. I LOVE this. And it's very, very helpful and inspiring. Brilliant! Blessings to all." Following his impressive and emotional comeback, Lewis has released his first new song in two years. He had sent shockwaves on social media when he dropped a teaser for his brand new song in a poignant Instagram video just hours before his Glastonbury appearance. The song, titled Survive, clearly means a lot to the BRIT Award winning artist who has faced much turmoil over the past two years after stepping out of the limelight due to his mental health. Alongside the video, Lewis wrote: "It's been a while." And in classic Lewis style, the artist's new song is full of emotion. Lyrics on the track include "I swear to God I'll survive" and "I'm going to get up and live until the day that I die."

The night I tried to reunite Liam & Noel with their estranged dad & why it's still one of my biggest regrets 29 years on
SOME might say I have zero chance of ever being granted forgiveness by Liam and Noel Gallagher. I don't deserve it but, for a very long time, I've wanted to tell them: 'I'm sorry.' 7 7 Looking back, I now completely understand why Liam was furious. He was so angry that he tried to punch me in the face. But at the time, I really didn't know the truth about what I'd been dragged into. The summer of 2025 will be the summer of Oasis — the comeback fans have patiently waited years for. But their reunion is a stark reminder of a particularly dark night in my past. The night I accompanied their father, Tommy Gallagher, to the Westbury Hotel in Dublin on Saturday, March 23, 1996. I was a junior reporter based in Yorkshire who, weeks earlier, after just turning 21, was asked to go to Tommy's home in Manchester to see if he'd talk about his world-famous sons. I was polite, he was friendly. We built up a rapport. He told me he hadn't seen his three sons since the day his wife left him. Lonely Tommy often said how much he adored and missed them and was desperate to be back in their lives. I felt sorry for him. He would get emotional showing me family photos and the guitar he said he had taught them their first chords on. When I relayed this to bosses in London, they told me I had to play a Cilla Black Surprise Surprise-type role — bringing the family back together. So, the plan was to accompany Tommy to Ireland, and to stay at the same fancy hotel the band were at while performing in the city. I was told to stay at Tommy's house the night before the trip to guarantee he made the early-morning flight. I knew better than to argue, so spent the night where Noel used to sleep. I say 'spent' — not 'slept' — because, believe me, you don't do much sleeping when in a house with a much older man you barely know. I was naive, young and inexperienced. It was my first ever solo job for the paper. 7 I was eager to impress my bosses in the tough newsroom down south. After checking into the hotel, Tommy wrote a letter explaining why he was there, which was handed to Liam. Minutes later, Liam rang Tommy's hotel room and barked at him: 'If I catch you round . . . walking round the lobby in this hotel . . . you're going to get your legs f***ing broke. Right? See ya later.' Reign of terror Tommy appeared devastated and said his heart was 'broken'. But Liam hadn't minced his words — and there would be no tear-jerker Cilla reunion role for me. We were told to head home in the morning, and the photographer who was on standby for the reunion snaps was told to leave. It was done. But Tommy wouldn't listen. At 2am, my hotel room phone rang. Tommy shouted: 'If you want a decent story, you'd better get down to the bar, NOW.' I begged him to calm down, to go to bed, to stop being ridiculous. He wouldn't listen. I was bleary-eyed but will never, ever forget the extraordinary scenario I raced into. There was Tommy, sitting in one corner of the bar, staring forcefully at the band who were at the other side. He refused to leave. In an instant, all hell broke loose. Liam swaggered over, bouncing up and down, and screamed: 'I told you I'd break your legs.' He lunged for his dad first, and then tried to punch me. Bouncers held him back, but Liam snarled: 'I'll break that tart's f***ing legs, too.'' Noel watched on, ready to wade in. Liam told his dad he was a 'loser', while he was a 'millionaire' who 'can afford bail now'. Tommy made jibes about Liam's then partner, Patsy Kensit, and called Liam a 'silly boy'. I sat there trembling. Finally, Tommy stormed off and one of the huge but kindly Oasis security guards 'escorted' me and my luggage out of the hotel, as I fought back tears. Liam and Noel have since, rightly, spoken out about how appalling this incident was. What they knew at the time, and I didn't, is that Tommy was a shocking, vile, evil father. And a liar. Just six months after that night, their mum Peggy set the record straight, revealing she had fled from Tommy because he was a womaniser and a drunk who beat her, Noel and their eldest son Paul. She said they were all left scarred by his reign of terror. When I read her words, I felt physically sick. That terrifying night now fully made sense to mje. I had been fed a pack of lies. And used. I have felt remorse for my part in what happened ever since. And if Noel and Liam still look back in anger at that night, I really don't blame them. I do, too. And I'm sorry. Don't hound Royals 7 THE charity folk at Peta – People For The Ethical Treatment Of Animals – have slammed William and Kate for allowing their cocker spaniel, Orla, to have puppies instead of adopting one amid an 'animal homelessness crisis'. They even said the royals were 'staggeringly out of touch' for 'churning out a litter'. How ridiculous – and nasty. They went on to openly praise Charles and Camilla, who have 'chosen to adopt from a shelter rather than contribute to the problem'. Adopting a dog doesn't suit every family. Sometimes a family really needs the focus and joy of seeing new life come into this world. Like, for example, when three young children have seen their mum go through an agonising cancer battle. One of the pups is staying with them, the rest will be guaranteed good homes. You wouldn't find a children's charity chastising people who have a bouncing baby instead of adopting, would you? Even though there are thousands of desperate kids in this country who need homes. Surely Peta must realise Kate and William actually do more for charities in this country than most. And I hope that they stop for a moment to think about how 'stag-geringly out of touch' they are for thinking it acceptable to attack a family in this way. Brazen Bezos 7 BILLIONAIRE Jeff Bezos either has very thick skin or zero self-awareness. On Thursday, as protests around his lavish wedding to Lauren Sanchez hit fever pitch, he gushed to anybody that listened: 'We love Venice.' Clearly not grasping the fact that Venice really doesn't love him. Kim's classy collab 7 KIM KARDASHIAN shows off a new bikini for her collection – a collab between her Skims brand and Roberto Cavalli. She said the lucrative partnership came about because she looked through old holiday photos and saw she was wearing Cavalli, which prompted her to contact the brand's creative director. Which, to the rest of us, is like contacting the boss at M&S, Primark or Next. But getting absolutely zero response. Crumby queues 7 FANCY trying that M&S strawberry-and-cream sarnie? Yes, me too. They couldn't have pushed it or hyped it up any more than they have, could they? I burst into my local Marksy's with full enthusiasm on Friday to be told that they only receive 'a few' packets each morning and are 'selling out by lunchtime'. That will be that, then, because there is zero chance-I'm joining an early-morning Wimbledon-type queue for a sandwich, however wonderful it sounds.
