The UK's most successful Eurovision contestant for 25 years announces his biggest headline show to date
Critically acclaimed singer, songwriter and musician Sam Ryder has announced his biggest headline show to date at London’s iconic Wembley Arena on Thursday 6 November 2025.
On announcing the show, Sam says: “I saw my first ever gig at Wembley Arena, it was Sum 41 and I was crammed right in the back wondering if I’d ever get to jump around on stage like those legends. 22 years later, here we are, and it still doesn’t feel real! We’re stoked to put together an insane show for you, and so thankful that the road from that first gig led here."
The announcement continues a phenomenally exciting new chapter of Sam Ryder’s career, following his triumphant return last month with ‘White Lies’. Sam recently announced he’ll be making his Glastonbury debut this year as he prepares to perform on the iconic festival’s Avalon Stage. Sam will also embark on a North American tour next month, with shows in New York, Chicago, Toronto, Nashville, and Los Angeles.
Co-written by Sam Ryder and Nick Lobel (Beyoncé, Miley Cyrus, Harry Styles) ‘White Lies’ bears witness to Sam’s growth as an artist and the incredible journey he has been on over the past year. Sonically completely fresh and elevated, and resonating on a deeper level than ever before, ‘White Lies’ acts as the perfect opener to the soundtrack of this undeniably bold new era.
After taking some time away to pause and reflect following a dizzying couple of years that saw his hit single ‘Space Man’ skyrocket him to the forefront of the airwaves, score a No.1 album, billions of streams, stadium performances and more, Sam has reclaimed creative control and freedom, choosing to move away from major labels and partnering with the new independent label Artist Theory.
Fizzing with inspiration, Sam laid the foundations for a new chapter of his whirlwind career both in the UK and in Nashville where he deeply embedded himself in the cultural scene and began bringing lifelong visions for his music to life, with a deep focus on the musicality, redefining his sound alongside an incredible team of collaborators. It was through this musical journey, set against the backdrop of America’s Music City, that Sam also went on a personal journey of self-discovery; an evolution as a man and an artist, together forming this powerful and authentic new chapter with stunning musicality paired with songwriting that narrates Sam at his most vulnerable, intimate, and unfiltered.
It was a fantastic night out seeing Sam Ryder play, would definitely go see him again, made the audience feel very involved, it was like having a big party with friends.
