Elton John is set to make his one and only visit to Sunderland this Sunday, 19 June, as he takes to the stage at the Stadium of Light as part of his Farewell Yellow Brick Road Tour.
Fans have been eagerly awaiting the Rocket Man icon’s appearance on Wearside after it was confirmed that he would play at the Stadium in June last year. The star was sadly forced to postpone some dates on his Farewell tour to 2023 after suffering a nasty fall back in September, but luckily for Sunderland fans the gig is going ahead this weekend.
The concert promises to follow in the footsteps of Ed Sheeran ’s time at the Stadium earlier this month, which saw 115,000 fans descend on Sunderland over two nights to watch the star perform. The Stadium is expected to be packed once again for Elton’s appearance on Sunday - although for any fan who’s yet to snap up a seat, tickets are still available for the gig on Ticketmaster .

The cheapest tickets are available in the Stands in Block P, which makes up the back rows of the stadium, with prices starting from £49 each plus a booking fee. Block U in front of Block P in the Stands also has some cheaper options still on offer - single tickets are going in parts of this block from £49.50 each.
Most of the seats under £99 are placed in Blocks P and U - the closest you can get to the stage without forking out more than £100 is in Block DD6, with one Resale ticket currently available in this Floor section for £85. Several seats in Block L, the closest seating section to the stage available in the Stands, are going for £99 each, as are plenty in Block U - but if you want to be a bit closer to the action, you can expect to cough up over £100 for remaining tickets .
Down on the Floor area, Resale tickets are going for up to a staggering £460 each - but Floor spaces start from £115 in Block C, climbing up to £138 for the lowest price in Block B in front. Tickets are still up for grabs in Block A, the closest area to the stage, starting from £150 - with Ticketmaster advertising the “Best Seats” in the house available directly in front of the stage for £415 as a Resale.
