Can’t get new tune ‘People Watching’ out of your head? Feverishly awaiting Sam Fender’s highly anticipated third studio album, which is officially coming out in February? Fender fans, we have more excellent news. The newly-crowned ‘king of the north’ has announced some massive stadium shows for next summer.

Back in October Sam Fender confirmed a string of UK arena dates for this coming December and, as expected, they sold out very, very quickly. Following those extremely high levels of demand, Fender has extended his tour with more stadium shows next summer. 

Fender will play the London Stadium – marking his first UK stadium show outside his native Newcastle – but he’ll crucially play shows at Newcastle’s St James’s Park in what will be his first stadium shows in the Toon since 2023. Following the initial announcement of two St James’s Park shows, Fender has since added a third date. 

Sam Fender gigs in Newcastle are always special occasions. Fancy heading to the shows? Tickets come out this week – here’s everything you need to know.
