About Sunderland
Sunderland’s Live Scene
Sunderland's Stadium of Light has hosted some of the North East's biggest stadium shows, including Beyoncé and Ed Sheeran, while the Edwardian Sunderland Empire Theatre — where The Beatles played on their first national tour — has been extended to host major West End musicals. The new Fire Station venue, part of the city's Music, Arts and Culture Quarter, won a regional architecture award in 2024. Whatever the show, TheShowFinder tracks tickets across every major provider so you can compare prices before you buy.
