RECORD TOKENS LAUNCHES TREASURE HUNT FOR RECORD STORE DAY!

April 4, 2023

RECORD TOKENS LAUNCHES TREASURE HUNT FOR RECORD STORE DAY!


To celebrate Record Tokens 5th birthday, we’re launching a nation-wide treasure hunt and you’re invited to join in!

From April 11th, ten £25 super-size Record Tokens (just like the one below!) will hidden among the racks of ten independent record shops all across the UK.

All you have to do is see if you can find one – but act fast because once they’re gone, they’re gone!

Record shops may well be leaving clues for you across their socials throughout the week, so keep an eye out in case you guess one correctly.


And if you’re lucky enough to find one, snap a selfie of you with the token in and simply follow the instructions on the back to be sent a £25 token just in time for Record Store Day!


You may want to gift it to a life-long music lover, to someone yet to experience buying their first vinyl record or keep it all to yourself for the biggest day on the record buying calendar! Good luck on your crate-digging, treasure-hunting journey!

2025 has been a huge year for Sam Fender: selling out London Stadium and three St James’ Park gigs in Newcastle, winning the Mercury Music Prize in his hometown, and releasing the fastest-selling British album of the year. On top of that, he was named Record Store Day 2025 ambassador, cementing his status as one of the UK’s most celebrated artists. Now, People Watching returns in a deluxe 2LP edition with eight new tracks, including “Rein Me In” with Olivia Dean and the new single “Talk to You” featuring Elton John. These fresh tracks are the perfect excuse to revisit the album and soak up the stories and songs that made it a standout this year. The new edition features more stunning imagery from the late Tish Murtha’s archive: a figure on a snow-covered bench, overlooking terraced housing and a factory. Iconic, poignant, and deeply tied to the Northern landscapes that inspire Sam’s music. Stick it on your Christmas list, buy it for a friend, and head to your local indie record shop when People Watching Deluxe drops on 5th December. Flip through the sleeve, spin the new tracks, and relive the album all over again. 2025 has been Sam’s year - cheers to him, and to all the independent record shops that have made it one to remember!
