Ed Sheeran announces UK tour including two shows at London’s O2 Arena - how to get tickets and presale details

Ed Sheeran has announced a new UK tour which includes two shows at London’s O2 Arena. The ‘Bad Habits’ singer announced the tour alongside new album ‘Subtract’ which will be released on May 5.

The new album will be the singer’s fifth LP to date and the final in his “mathematical album era” of records named after mathematical symbols. Subtract promises songs ranging from “pared back, folk-leaning textures to bolder, full-band/orchestral arrangements”.

To celebrate the album announcement, Sheeran will be playing dates in Manchester, London, Glasgow and Dublin later this month, with a one-off show scheduled in Paris in April. Currently, these dates are Sheeran’s only scheduled UK and European shows for 2023.

Fans who preorder the new album before Tuesday, March 7 at 9am via Sheeran’s official website will have access to presale tickets to the upcoming tour, kicking off in Manchester in just a few weeks, on Thursday, March 23.
