The North Shields singer-songwriter will bring his People Watching Tour to UK and Ireland arenas this December.

He'll kick off his first UK and Ireland tour since 2022 in Dublin on December 2, before heading to Leeds, Manchester for dates, London for two shows, Birmingham, Glasgow for two gigs, and Newcastle, where he'll wrap up the run on December 20.

He'll then head to Europe in March next year, performing in Paris, Tilburg, Zurich, Cologne, Bergamo, Berlin, Amsterdam and Brussels.

Support in the UK will come from Wunderhorse, and tickets for all dates go on general sale at 10am local time on Friday (October 25). £1 from every ticket sold for the UK dates will be donated to the Music Venue Trust in support of grassroots venues - Compare and buy tickets here.

With high demand expected for his hometown show in Newcastle on December 20, tickets for that date will be available by ballot to customers with North-East postcodes only. The ballot required registration, which is now closed.

Fender has been working on his third studio album, the follow-up to 2021's 'Seventeen Going Under'. It's hoped news of the record or its first single will drop soon, possibly when the current countdown clock on his website expires.
