Ed Sheeran to bring his Loop Tour to Australia, New Zealand
Ed Sheeran recently announced his new Loop tour, which will start in January 2026. The singer is now bringing his Loop Tour to Australia and New Zealand. Due to overwhelming demand, he has added additional shows in Perth, Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne, and Auckland, reported Billboard. The stadium tour will start on January 16 at Auckland's Go Media Stadium and will continue through New Zealand before heading to Australia for shows in every major capital city. The newly announced concerts include a second date at Perth's Optus Stadium, as well as three additional shows in Sydney, Brisbane, and Melbourne, bringing the total number of dates to 15 across both countries, according to the outlet. Tickets for all dates will go on sale on Tuesday, July 29, at staggered times. The Loop Tour will support Sheeran's next studio album, Play, set to be released September 12 via Warner Music. Described as "an explorative, technicolour pop album that captures the fun, chaos, and heart of an artist reinvigorated by life and travel," the project includes singles Azizam, Sapphire, and Old Phone. The album marks Sheeran's first major release since Autumn Variations in 2023, reported Billboard. Sharing details about the tour, Ed, in an Instagram post earlier, he wrote, "Starting a brand new tour next year called the LOOP tour. New stage, new tricks, new set up, new songs and all the classics added in. We kick it off in Australia and New Zealand in Jan, Feb, March 2026, which is always the best time, I can't wait to be back. Tickets on sale Tues 29th July, see you all there x." Meanwhile, Ed is basking in the success of his latest song, Sapphire, which he made in collaboration with Arijit Singh. Sharing what went on behind the track, Sheeran, in an Instagram post, wrote, " Sapphire was the first song I finished for Play that made me know where the album was heading. It's why I finished the recording process in Goa surrounded by some of the best musicians in India. It was an incredible creative process. I shot the music video with @liampethickphoto and @nicminns across my India tour earlier this year, we wanted to showcase the beauty and breadth of the country and its culture."
