Sam Fender adds extra dates to December 2024 UK & Ireland arena tour 

Sam Fender has added three new dates to his last minute arena tour around the UK and Ireland this December, having spent the past few weeks teasing the big announcement across his social media channels. 

His upcoming run of shows - dubbed the ‘People Watching’ tour (make of that what you will…) - will mark his first full tour around the country since 2022; since then, he’s been second-from-top on Glastonbury’s Pyramid Stage, headlined a slew of huge festivals including Reading and Leeds, and played two huge sold out shows in Newcastle’s St James’ Park. Not too shabby at all.

Now, the North Shields singer is set to play an upgraded-due-to-demand ten shows this December - with a European run scheduled for early 2025 - culminating with an appearance at Newcastle’s Utilita Arena. Whilst tickets for all shows are set to go on sale from 10am tomorrow (25th October) via Sam’s website, tickets for his Newcastle show will be available to fans via ballot, because of what’s expected to be massive demand. To enter the ballot and have a chance of securing tickets, fans with a North East post code can enter via this link.

What’s more, support for the tour will come from Wunderhorse, and £1 from every UK show ticket will be donated to the Music Venue Trust in support of grassroots venues.
