Is Ed Sheeran's Aussie tour coming to Perth?
The Shape of You singer has been dropping clues that he'll be returning to our shores for weeks, with his local tour management joining the party by leaving a trail of Easter Eds all over their socials.

Fans have also been encouraged to visit the dedicated landing page for the tour for updates, frontiertouring.com/letsplay.
Followers of the 34-year-old have expressed their excitement at experiencing his catalogue of hits Down Under once more, following Sheeran's Mathematics Tour of Australia and New Zealand in 2023.
'Can't wait to see my tedddddy again,' one fan wrote in response to the tour tease.
Another asked: 'Do you think the tickets will come out at this time tomorrow? Or the tour will be announced? Just want to make sure I'm mentally ready!'
The former busker's singular Perth gig at Optus Stadium became the highest ticketed event in WA's history, with more than 70,000 fans flooding the precinct to hear his signature sound.
No cities have yet been confirmed as tour stops, though all is sure to be revealed at 2pm WST.
Earlier, Sheeran had visited Australia in 2018 with his Divide Tour.
In May, the globetrotting 34-year-old launched The Mathematics Tour in Europe, and had been leaving traces of his travel antics on TikTok as fans begged for the star to appear in their location.
However, the Lego House hitmaker responded to one particular comment regarding his plans to return to Australia, which all but confirmed his plans. Ed Sheeran responds to a fan's plea to return to Australia. Credit: Ed Sheeran / TikTok
'How does coming back to Australia soon sound to you?' the fan asked.
Nonchalantly, Sheeran responded: 'Start of 2026.'
PerthNow reached out to the star's management at the time, who preferred not to double-down on the announcement but hinted further news might be on the way.
'We aren't in the habit of pre-announcing announcements — but there will be news on our plans for 26 later this summer,' a representative for Sheeran said.
Sheeran's eighth studio album Play is set for release on September 12.
The star has already released tracks Old Phone, Azizam and Sapphire as he drip feeds fans his new music.
