Ferocious Dog Bring UK Farewell Tour to Boiler Shop Newcastle

Ferocious Dog at Boiler Shop comes to Newcastle on Saturday 7 November 2026 as part of the band’s UK farewell tour. The show starts at 7pm, with Shanghai Treason and Headsticks joining the bill for a night that leans heavily into folk-punk, protest songs and a genuinely final-tour atmosphere.

Ferocious Dog have spent years building a live reputation around speed, fiddle, banjo and big communal choruses. That combination has always worked best in busy rooms rather than polite seated spaces. So Boiler Shop feels like the right scale for a farewell date that should be more about connection and movement than ceremony.

The support choices also make sense. Shanghai Treason bring their own folk-punk energy, while Headsticks add another direct, rootsy edge to the night. Because both bands sit naturally alongside Ferocious Dog, the evening should feel like one long build rather than two unrelated support slots before the main set.

The farewell tag inevitably changes how people approach the show. Songs about community, resistance and solidarity land differently when the band are closing a chapter, especially for people who have followed them through festival fields and grassroots rooms. Meanwhile, the Boiler Shop setting keeps the occasion grounded instead of turning it into a distant arena send-off.

The event is listed as 14+, with under-16s needing to attend with an adult. The advertised start time is 7pm. Tickets are available through Boiler Shop’s official event page, and anyone travelling should check the venue page again before the show for any late timing or entry changes.

Newcastle gets one of the final chances to see Ferocious Dog in the setting that suits them best: close crowd, loud room and a bill built around the same rough-edged spirit. With Shanghai Treason and Headsticks alongside them, this feels less like a formal goodbye and more like one last full folk-punk night out.
