Sam Fender has announced he'll be going back on the road in a matter of weeks - and there's set to be a special stop-off in Newcastle at the Utilita Arena. 

The Geordie singer today (October 18) revealed he would be performing at the Utilita Arena on Friday, December 20, 2024, just under two years since he headlined St James Park over two fantastic nights. 

The concert will form part of his People Watching Tour - with new on his upcoming album, currently only known as SF3, set to be released soon. 

He'll also be performing at the likes of Leeds, Manchester, Paris, and Berlin - but the Newcastle night in particular is special, with only fans with a select few North East postcodes being able to enter the ballot for the gig in the Toon.

Here are all the details you need to know about Sam's Newcastle show. 

Who can get tickets for the Newcastle date?

Tickets for the Newcastle Utilita show will only be available for fans with postcodes beginning with the following two letters: NE, DH, SR, DL, TS. ​

All other dates will see tickets released on pre-sale - which fans are able to access by pre-ordering album three ahead of October 22 - followed by a general sale.

 

How will the ballot entries be picked?

All ballot entries submitted will be picked at random - with all successful entries receiving an email confirmation with details on how to purchase tickets.

 

Is there a ticket limit?

There will be a ticket limit of four per order.

 

How will the ballot work? 

Only fans who have received an email will be able to purchase tickets - and if you are successful for the ballot, this does NOT mean you are guaranteed tickets. ​

Submitting your details does NOT guarantee access to tickets. ​

All ballot entries submitted will be picked at random. ​

Sam Fender has confirmed that there will also be additional measures in place to prevent the unauthorised resale of tickets. ​

 

When does the ballot close?
