Sam Fender Suits Up for 2027 Stadium Tour

October 21, 2026

Sam Fender is thinking big for 2027.

The artist, who duets with Olivia Dean on the global smash “Rein Me In,” has announced his Proper Massive stadium tour, a 10-date summer run in the U.K., Ireland and Belgium that includes his biggest headlining shows to date: two nights at London’s Wembley Stadium, June 18 and 20.

Booked by CAA internationally and WME in North America, Fender will also headline Belgium’s Rock Werchter festival on July 3 amid visits to Newcastle, England, Cardiff, Wales, Dublin, Edinburgh and Manchester. In addition, Fender is rumored to be in the mix as a potential Glastonbury headliner, but the lineup has yet to be officially confirmed.

Wunderhorse will provide support on all of Fender’s U.K. stadium dates.

The tour is promoted by Kilimanjaro Live, SJM Concerts and Communion One in the U.K., DJ Concerts in Scotland and MCD in Ireland. Fender is managed by Owain Davies for OD Management.

The upcoming shows were teased in a hilarious video where Fender and his bandmates are dressed as Tolkien characters and light beacons at stadiums across the U.K. and Ireland.

The artist’s stadium-sized ambitions are backed by substantial box-office receipts. Fender’s three June 2025 shows at Newcastle’s St. James’ Park moved more than 150k tickets and grossed $14.64m, according to Pollstar. His London Stadium concert that month sold nearly 79k tickets, grossing almost $8m.

Long a star abroad, Fender’s momentum has soared thanks to his 2025 Polydor LP People Watching, which topped the U.K. album chart and won the Mercury Prize. “Rein Me In” became the longest-running #1 single in British chart history this year, adding another milestone to a run that’s also brought him BRIT Awards and an Ivor Novello for Songwriter of the Year.
