Sam Fender has announced a concert in Dublin's 3Arena, just six weeks away on December 2nd, 2024.

It comes as he announced his UK, Ireland and European, People Watching Tour.

The seven-date UK and Ireland run commences in Dublin and finishes on December 20th at the Utilita Arena in Newcastle. He will also perform in Leeds, Manchester, London, Birmingham and Glasgow.

Fender previously headlined Malahide Castle in Dublin in 2023.

Tickets for Dublin priced from €56.85 to €67.70, including booking fee, go on sale from Friday October 25th, at 10am via Ticketmaster.ie.

MCD presale and Three presale both take place on Wednesday, October 23rd at 10am, while Spotify presale, which will be sent out to Fender's top listeners via email, will take place at 10am on Thursday, October 24th at 10am.

Users will have to sign up to MCD and Three presales separately via MCD's website or their Three account, with Three presale only being available to Three users.

Fender has been in the studio working on a follow-up to his critically acclaimed number one and BRIT-Award-winning second album from 2021, Seventeen Going Under.

Fans who preorder the soon-to-be-announced third studio album will receive pre-sale access on Tuesday, October 22nd.

Following his seven-date stint across the UK and Ireland, Fender will perform eight concerts across Europe from March 4th to March 19th 2025 in Paris, Tilburg, Zurich, Cologne, Bergamo, Berlin, Amsterdam and Brussels.

In 2022, Fender cancelled a string of gigs to focus on his mental health after becoming "burnt out" from touring.
