He said: “It got inflated well more than I’d had in mind, it should only be inflated in relation to the cost of putting the show on.” In his reply, Fender also criticised the division of standing tickets into front and back tiers as “bollocks”, saying this “won’t be happening” on his tour.

“I have no idea how this was normalised in gigs,” he added.

In a TikTok post in August, she agreed with criticism from fans that ticket prices for her show in Bangkok were “very expensive” and wished to be “more involved” with setting prices. “I hate the fact that people genuinely want to come, but they can’t because of the prices,” Larsson added. Fender will perform at Newcastle’s St James’s Park, Cardiff’s Principality Stadium, Dublin’s Marley Park, Murrayfield in Edinburgh and the Etihad in Manchester across summer 2027.
