Singer Sam Fender has said he will reduce ticket prices for his upcoming UK stadium tour after objecting to the initial pricing.

Sam Fender has vowed to reduce ticket prices for his UK stadium tour after publicly objecting to initial pricing. Edinburgh Live reports that proposed prices ranged from £56 to £130.75 for seated tickets and £106 to £130.75 for standing. The singer, known for songs including Hypersonic Missiles and Seventeen Going Under, commented on social media saying the prices had 'inflated well more than I'd had in mind'.

The 32-year-old said ticket costs should only increase in relation to the expense of staging the show. He also objected to standing tickets being split into different price categories, saying he had been unaware this was standard practice. Fender will perform at venues including Edinburgh's Murrayfield, Newcastle's St James' Park, Manchester's Etihad Stadium, London's Wembley and Cardiff's Principality Stadium in July 2027. Official sales begin next week.
