Sam Fender is very pleased to announce three huge stadium headline shows for next Summer in support of his forthcoming new album, People Watching.
 
Sam plays the London Stadium on Friday 6th June, which becomes his biggest headline show to date, before returning north for two hometown shows at Newcastle’s St. James’ Park on Thursday 12th + Saturday 14thJune. 
 
It’ll be the third and fourth time the North Shields musician has performed in his home city stadium, having sold-out two nights back in 2023. He will overtake The Rolling Stones who have performed at St James’ Park on three previous occasions.
 
The 75,000 capacity show at the London Stadium will be Sam’s first stadium headline date outside of Newcastle.
 
CMAT supports at all three shows, and The War on Drugs will play on 6th and 14th June.
 
Fans who pre-order People Watching from Sam’s store by 10am Monday 25th November, or have already pre-ordered the record via Sam’s store, will receive early access to tickets from 9:30am on Tuesday 26thNovember. All remaining tickets go on general sale from 9:30am on Friday 29th November via www.samfender.com
 
£1 from every ticket sold will be donated back into select cultural organisations such as Youth Music and Sunday For Sammy to support the arts in the North East of England.
 
Last week sparked an explosive return for Fender, with news of his third album “People Watching” set for release on 21st February 2025, and the sharing of the new record’s anthemic title-track.
