Sam Fender says he will reduce ticket prices for his 2027 stadium tour after criticism from fans.

Sam Fender has promised to lower ticket prices for his Proper Massive Stadium Tour in 2027 after fans criticised the cost. The 32-year-old announced the tour, which will include dates at Wembley Stadium, Newcastle's St James's Park, Cardiff's Principality Stadium, Dublin's Marley Park, Edinburgh's Murrayfield Stadium and Manchester's Etihad Stadium, earlier this week.

Fan Gavin Davis shared details showing standing tickets at Wembley were split into 'front standing' at £130.75 and 'standing' at £98.85, with seated tickets ranging from £64.75 to £130.75. Other venues showed highest prices of £112.90 in Newcastle, £119 in Cardiff, £120.95 in Edinburgh and £119.60 in Manchester.

Responding on Instagram, Fender said he was 'not happy with these prices' and they were 'getting changed'. He stated: 'It got inflated well more than I'd had in mind, it should only be inflated in relation to the cost of putting the show on.' He also criticised the split standing sections as 'bollocks', saying this 'won't be happening' on his tour. Tickets go on sale Friday, with a presale on Wednesday morning.
