According to a Guardian report, Sam Fender has responded to criticism from fans about ticket prices for his 2027 stadium tour by promising to lower the cost. The 32-year-old musician announced the tour, called Proper Massive, earlier this week, the newspaper said.
The Guardian reported that Fender told followers on Instagram that the prices are "getting changed". The newspaper also reported that he criticised stadium pricing. The report was written by Priya Bharadia, according to the Guardian.
BBC News reported that the Geordie singer said on Instagram that he is "not happy" with the reported ticket prices. The BBC News article on the matter gives the same account of his Instagram post.
The two reports describe the singer's position in different terms. BBC News framed it as his unhappiness with the reported prices, while the Guardian reported that he pledged to reduce the cost. Neither summary of the reports states what the revised prices will be or when any change will take effect.
The Guardian said the tour is scheduled for 2027. Neither report, as summarised, gives details of the tour's dates or venues, or the specific ticket prices that fans objected to.
