Greggs has opened its first ever bar , Fenders Unplugged, in celebration of Geordie icon and Sausage, Bean & Cheese Melt fan, Sam Fender. Tickets for the bar were snapped up when they went on sale earlier this week, selling out within minutes with fans desperate to get a slice of the action.
Those who were lucky enough to get their hands on tickets will get the ultimate pre-gig experience ahead of Sam’s sold out shows. Each session will last for 75 minutes, with complementary Greggs combos served up and washed down with Sam’s favourite drink, Newcastle Brown Ale. Fans will also be able to get their hands on exclusive Fenders Unplugged merch.
Local talent confirmed to be taking the stage for the intimate acoustic sets at Greggs includes hip-hop artist Kay Greyson, Bugman, The Peevie Wonders, Cortney Dixon and Chintzy Stetson.
