In March 2025, Sam will then travel to Europe for nine performances in France, Germany, Italy, Switzerland and the Netherlands.
Tickets go on general sale on October 25 at 10am, with fans only able to purchase four tickets each.
A ballet for tickets for its performances in Newcastle is currently open and closes on Monday 21.
Sam has released two albums: Hypersonic Missiles in 2019 and Seventeen Going Under in 2021.
Not long after the release of Seventeen Going Under, Sam was forced to cancel a number of US headline performances to focus on his mental health.
He said at the time: “It seems completely hypocritical of me to advocate the discussion of mental health and write songs about it when I don’t take the time to look after my own mental health.
‘I have been neglecting myself for over a year now and have done nothing about the things that have affected me deeply.
“It is impossible to do this work on myself while I am on the road, and it is exhausting to feign happiness and well-being for the sake of business.”

Sam, who has been known to even perform for free, told Twitter and Instagram that he was “eternally overwhelmed by the love and support of our fans” and was angry that he let them down.
Among the outpouring of support in his comments section was a message from Gwyneth Paltrow, who said: “This is beautiful. We (heart emoji) you. Take care of yourself.’
The North Shields artist previously said the name of his second album Seventeen Going Under was influenced by his mental health struggles and his therapy sessions.
On social media he added: “The state of my well-being is starting to affect everything I do, including my performances (and) I refuse to go out there and not give my absolute best EVERY time as you all deserve nothing less.”
