Sam Fender has teased a special announcement coming TOMORROW - and fans think he could be returning to the home of Newcastle United for another gig. 

The singer posted a video this morning (Thursday, November 21) featuring Johnny 'Blue Hat' Davis, the band's saxophone player, wearing a Newcastle top while sitting against the backdrop of the Magpies' press conference room. 

Featuring flashing lights and "members of the press" shouting "Johnny, over here", the seven-second video ended with the words 'tomorrow' in yellow capital letters.

Fans believe that the announcement could be that the North Shields star is returning to St James' Park for another gig - almost two years after headlining the packed out stadium. 

The short video was met with huge excitement from fans, who joked that everybody should "stay calm" while others simply said: "Thank God".

The video comes just weeks after dates for Sam's upcoming People Watching Tour went on sale, with the singer set to kick off a string of dates in a matter of days. 

He also released his latest single People Watching last Friday and confirmed that the album of the same name would be released on February 21. 

As part of the tour, Sam will be returning to the Utilita Arena on Friday, December 20, 2024 for an exclusive concert, which saw only people with North East postcodes offered tickets. 

Sam will also be playing a string of other dates across the country throughout December, including in Leeds, Dublin, Manchester, London, Birmingham, and Glasgow.
