Oasis has released free tickets to pop-up merch stores across the UK ahead of their tour, but many disappointed fans have the same complaint.
Stores offering a limited run of clothing, vinyl and accessories will be opening in across the UK. The first shop opens in Manchester from June 20 to July 27, with more set to follow in Edinburgh, Cardiff, London, Birmingham, and Dublin.
Admission to the fan stores are free but require e-tickets, reports Birmingham Live.
A link shared on the band's official X page directed fans to a page where they could select a store and see available dates before picking a 30-minute time slot.
Up to four tickets could be reserved.
Many fans were excited about getting new merchandise ahead of the Oasis Live '25 tour but others were frustrated at the lack of venues.
One said: "Do this in South America!"
Another asked: "Will there be special pop up shops for North America, Asia and South America?"
Another annoyed fan commented: "Do Oasis even know they have fans outside the UK? Like, in actual Europe?"
A fourth claimed: "Yeah you hate Europe though."
"Do one in Italy, I'm begging," another desperate fan posted.
Cecilia said: "Will pop ups happen in Canada?"

Oasis fans set to break all-time booze records during sold-out Scots gigs
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) OASIS fans could be set to break booze records at Scotland's largest stadium, industry experts claim. Up to 210,000 supporters are expected to descend on Murrayfield Stadium in Edinburgh for three sell-out shows at the beginning of August.

The 70,000 fans at each show would need to neck three pints each to eclipse previous sales. And DF Concerts expect a 'spirited audience' with 'medium to high intoxication' at the Oasis gig. Figures suggest fans could guzzle more than 120,000 drinks each night, based to historic sales figures from other mega concerts at the venue. A breakdown shows beer has been particularly popular with rock fans while pop-loving punters prefer cider and wine. Entertainment guru Donald MacLeod, who helped plan Oasis' last Scottish gigs 16 years ago, said: 'Given the hospitality sector has been so brutalised by councils and government in the past few years, this is going to be a boom for many bars, pubs and restaurants in the Edinburgh area. 'I think it's going to be supersonic when they play in Edinburgh. And I hope they set a new record for alcohol sales. 'Alcohol gets the better of a few people. But I think we have to 'roll with it' and enjoy it. It's not going to be a 'champagne supernova' as such, fans are more likely to drink beer. 'Cigarettes And Alcohol is one of their greatest songs. Whilst the fans may have ditched the cigarettes, there's still plenty of alcohol there to be drunk - as long as they do it safely.' Mr MacLeod, who has an MBE for services in music and charity, promoted Oasis gigs in 2000 and 2009 together with Regular Music. Noel Gallagher looks stony-faced as he makes lonely Tube journey to Oasis rehearsals – but Liam's entrance is chaotic He added: 'I think almost everybody there will have a beer for the occasion of Oasis getting back together. It's a cause of celebration. 'But there's no way that some of these fans will be able to drink as much as they did in 2009. Things have moved on.' Papers obtained by the Scottish Sun under FOI laws show an estimated 55,000 Robbie Williams fans were expected to down 120,000 drinks at the end of May. Punters at the gig coughed up between £6 to £8 for a pint and between £8 to £12 for a glass of wine. Almost a third were sales of lager, another third cider, with the rest made up of wine, gin and tonic, and soft drinks. The former Take That singer's previous gig in June 2017 saw 48,608 people attend with 108,728 drinks sold. The Rolling Stones' gig in June 2018 saw 52,583 fans down a whopping 107,005 drinks. Council blasted for fans 'insult' by Gordon Tait MURRAYFIELD locals have blasted council chiefs for branding Oasis fans as 'fat, old, drunk and lairy'. Residents said it was insulting to 210,000 revellers expected to flock to Edinburgh in August. We previously told how officials labelled them as rowdy "middle-aged men" who "take up more room" and drink to "medium to high intoxication". Maureen McSherry, 63, of fully-booked Murrayfield Hotel, said: "The number of people and atmosphere will be good for business. What they said is a very big generalisation." Elinor Cronin, 39, of nearby Roseburn Bar, said: "The council is insulting. A minority may be rowdy, most won't be." Beyonce's 52,568 fans enjoyed 105,396 drinks at her concert in May 2023, back in 2019, 51,589 Spice Girls bought 94,701 drinks. Documents said there had been few arrests at previous Gallagher brothers gigs, but fears were raised about clashes with the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. A paper noted 'concern about crowds of Oasis on weekends as they are already rowdy and the tone of the band.' It added: 'Concerned about the safety of the Fringe and its performers. Many performers are considering not attending for that weekend.' Emails show council chiefs have also been in contact with other major cities hosting Oasis gigs - including Cardiff, Manchester and Dublin - in a bid to 'share ideas' and 'best practice for the event.' The SRU and Murrayfield Experience were approached for comment.
