Thought your March was already booked up with plans? If you’re an Ed Sheeran fan, you might need to do some shuffling – because the pop superstar has just announced a surprise batch of UK shows. The news follows his recent announcement of his upcoming album ‘-’(subtract), which will be released on May 5, and the shows will see Ed perform his new single (and much more).
This select run of UK and Ireland arena shows will take in Manchester, London, Glasgow and Dublin, and since they’re the only scheduled UK shows this year, you can bet that there will be scramble to get tickets. If you’re keen to hear ‘Bad Habits’ singer in the flesh, here’s everything you need to know about his upcoming tour.
How much do tickets cost?
We don’t know how much tickets for Ed’s new UK shows will cost. However, tickets for Ed Sheeran’s 2021 shows cost around £50 to £80 in London, and £45 to £75 in the rest of the UK, so we can probably expect them to be slightly more expensive.

To gain early access to the ticket pre-sale, fans can pre-order the album before 9am on March 7 via Sheeran’s official website.
The early-access pre-sale starts at 9am on March 8, while the general sale takes place on March 10 at 9am. Time to set those alarms!
