Eurovision star Sam Ryder is to play a gig at Brighton Dome after his rise to fame in the past year.

The pop star, who took the UK to second in Eurovision with his hit ballad Space Man, is currently touring the UK and will stop off in the city hot on the heels of his viral success.

After finding fame on TikTok during the pandemic, the singer helped the UK secure hosting this year’s contest in Liverpool.

The tour comes as one of his first forays into live shows, with shows announced in January and selling out almost immediately.
