The MCD managing director said ticket sales for 2025 “are very good”, adding that Croke Park shows by Oasis and Robbie Williams, along with Electric Picnic, are sell-outs.

The gig is part of a newly announced global tour following his headline Glastonbury set, and features a four-night residency at London’s O2 Academy Brixton.

The Fender Stratocaster sold for £700,000 and a premium placed on the item brought the total to £889,400 (€1.069m).
