Ed Sheeran announces UK & Ireland stadium tour dates for 2018
Fresh from headlining Glastonbury to major praise, Ed Sheeran will hit the road once more in 2018 for an extensive stadium tour.
After completing an arena tour this year, Ed will go one bigger by playing the likes of Manchester Etihad Stadium, Newcastle's St. James Park and London's Wembley Stadium for four nights.
Ed's latest album has proven hugely popular worldwide, but particularly so in Ireland, where his track Galway Girl knocked Shape Of You from Number 1 where it spent four weeks at the top. Ed has responded with six shows in Ireland, including Cork, Dublin and you guessed it, Galway.
