Ed Sheeran is officially coming to Australia and New Zealand.
After Frontier Touring teased the news yesterday (July 22nd), the global pop superstar has today confirmed he’s bringing his ‘Loop Tour’ Down Under.
Sheeran will play shows in Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch, Perth, Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne, and Adelaide through January, February, and March of next year (see full dates below). As it stands, he’ll play twice in Sydney, Brisbane, and Melbourne, while Christchurch will get to see Sheeran live for the first time in 11 years.
Tickets go on sale to the general public on Tuesday, July 29th, at staggered times (see below). The Frontier Member pre-sale begins on Monday, July 28th, while the Telstra Plus Member pre-sale begins on Friday, July 25th.
The English singer-songwriter is hugely popular in these parts, having already sold 2.5 million tickets across Australia and New Zealand to date.
The ‘Loop Tour’ will follow the release of his new album, Play, which is scheduled for release on Friday, September 12th. Play features recent singles “Azizam”, “Sapphire”, and “Old Phone”, and the album is described as “an explorative, technicolour pop album that captures the fun, chaos, and heart of an artist reinvigorated by life and travel.”
