Almost four years to the day since he wrapped up his last tour of the country, pop icon Ed Sheeran has announced his return to Australia, plotting a stadium tour for early 2023.
Announced this morning, the forthcoming tour will see Sheeran kick off his time down under with a pair of shows in New Zealand, before heading across the Tasman for headline dates in Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, and Perth.
Releasing his last album back in October, Sheeran’s = (pronounced ‘Equals’), gave him his fifth-straight chart-topping album in the country. Fittingly, the record also featured the track “Visiting Hours”, which Sheeran had written for, and first premiered at the memorial service of, late Australian music icon Michael Gudinski.
However, despite a brief one-off trip to Australia early last year to play the heartfelt track, Sheeran has been eagerly awaiting to head out on the road for his new global tour. Now, the + – = x Tour (pronounced ‘The Mathematics Tour’) is set to kick off next month in Ireland, before it goes around the world, currently culminating with the aforementioned run of Aussie dates.
Tickets to Ed Sheeran’s upcoming Australian tour go on sale from Wednesday, March 23rd, with specific times detailed below. Likewise, a Frontier Members pre-sale runs for 24 hours from Monday, March 21st, with specific times available via Frontier Touring.
