Beyoncé is reportedly gearing up to announce a series of UK stadium shows for next summer, going head-to-head with Oasis's highly-anticipated reunion tour.
The 43-year-old music superstar is said to have scheduled five performances at London's Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, as part of a world tour to support her number-one album, Cowboy Carter.
The Drunk in Love hitmaker previously brought her Renaissance World tour to the stadium in 2023 for five thrilling nights in the capital.
A source told The Sun: “Beyonce is about to raise the roof. The demand for tickets will be just like Oasis' and will rival fans' rush to get their hands on a seat.
“Oasis and Beyonce are top tier and demand for tickets will be fierce. Over seven million people tried to get Oasis tickets — and Beyonce's fans will be out in force too.”
Summer 2025 is shaping up to be packed with big-name acts such as Billie Eilish, Usher, and Sabrina Carpenter also playing UK dates while Dua Lipa is set to play two sold out shows at Wembley Stadium.
The insider explained: “The boost to the economy is going to be phenomenal.”
The Standard has contacted Beyoncé’s rep for comment.
News comes as consumer group Which? called on Oasis and Ticketmaster to "do the right thing" and refund fans hit by inflated ticket prices.
Many fans were shocked by the price of standard tickets for the reunion tour more than doubling from £148 to £355 on Ticketmaster amid surging demand, prompting the Government and the UK's competition watchdog to pledge they will look into the use of dynamic pricing.
Following the controversy, Which? asked Oasis fans to send in screenshots of the ticket-buying and checkout process to see if they were warned that ticket prices could surge due to high levels of demand.
Which? said it received dozens of screenshots from fans who had tried to buy tickets - both before and after prices increased - none of which showed a warning message that Ticketmaster would increase prices during the sale.
Instead, Which? said it saw evidence that fans were shown one price for tickets, only to have that price taken away at the last second and replaced with a far higher, and unexpected, ticket price.
Which? cited one screenshot showing that due to 'in demand' pricing the cost of standing tickets at a Heaton Park show - originally advertised for £148.50 - surged to £337.50 each.
Under the Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations (CPRs), traders must not mislead consumers with how prices are presented or leave out key pricing information that they might need to make an informed decision about their purchase.
Which? said many fans were not informed about the increases until after they had already tried to add cheaper tickets to their baskets.
While the use of 'dynamic pricing' was mentioned in the terms and conditions on the website, fans were not warned that this practice would be used for Oasis tickets, the watchdog said.
Last week the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) launched an investigation into Ticketmaster over the sale.
The CMA said its investigation would include how so-called 'dynamic pricing' may have been used and would scrutinise whether the sale of Oasis tickets by Ticketmaster may have breached consumer protection law.
Ticketmaster has 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".
Which? said it would share its findings with the CMA.
Over the weekend, Oasis sent out invites for a private invite-only ballot for their "final" Wembley Stadium dates, having extended their Live '25 tour to include two more London shows on September 27 and 28.
