Leazes Bring Faces and Places Tour Home to Digital Newcastle
Leazes finish their first UK headline tour on home ground at Digital Newcastle on 26 November 2026, closing the Faces and Places run in their own city.
Leazes at Digital Newcastle on Thursday 26 November 2026 is more than another date in the diary for the rising North East indie band. It is the final night of their first UK headline tour, bringing the eight-date Faces and Places run back home to Newcastle for what should feel like a proper end-of-tour celebration.

The tour takes Leazes through Leeds, Scunthorpe, Sheffield, Glasgow, Stockton, London and Manchester before finishing on home ground at Digital. That makes the Newcastle show a significant one for a band whose momentum has been built from the North East outwards. After a busy run of festival appearances, sold-out shows and growing support from BBC Introducing and independent radio, finishing their first headline tour in their own city feels like a marker of how quickly things have moved.
Leazes at Digital Newcastle closes the Faces and Places tour
Leazes have developed a reputation for energetic live shows and direct, anthemic indie songs that are made for a crowd to get involved with. Tracks including “Sun’s Out”, “Melissa In Action” and “Hers” have helped shape that sound, but this date has an extra edge because the band arrive after seven shows on the road rather than walking into Newcastle cold.
By the time they reach Digital, the set should have had the full tour to settle in. More importantly, the audience will include plenty of people who have watched Leazes develop on North East stages. That combination of a road-tested show and a hometown crowd is exactly why this one stands out from a standard tour stop.
Digital is also a sizeable step up for a local headline date. The Times Square room gives the band space for the bigger choruses and high-energy moments that have become central to their live identity, while still keeping the crowd close enough for the show to retain the connection that has helped Leazes build their following.
A Newcastle homecoming with something riding on it
There is a neat sense of progression around the November run. Leazes play KU Stockton on 20 November during the closing stretch of the tour, before heading through London and Manchester and finally returning to Newcastle six days later. For North East fans, the Digital finale is the chance to see where that first national headline run has taken them.
It is also the kind of local show SoundBite wants to flag for more than its date and venue. A first headline tour is an important point for any emerging band; getting to finish it at home, in a larger Newcastle room, gives this one a genuine sense of occasion.
