Ed Sheeran BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
If you want to talk about a week of milestones and headlines for Ed Sheeran this is it. First up in the news cycle Ed wrapped his record-breaking Mathematics tour grossing an eye-watering 140 million dollars in 2025 alone with total tour earnings closing in on nearly 900 million since 2022—those accolades as reported by Pollstar and Hits Daily Double firmly cementing his place as one of the modern live music juggernauts. Just as the Mathematics tour winds down Ed is gearing up for the next chapter: the global Loop tour supporting his freshly released eighth studio album Play. Australian music outlets are buzzing with the news that Vance Joy will be joining Ed as the main support across his January-to-March 2026 Australia and New Zealand dates. Shows are selling briskly with summer stadiums already moving hundreds of thousands of tickets—Frontier Touring confirms the buzz, and chatter on The Music Network and Hot Tomato has Vance Joy gushing over Ed’s inimitable stage presence and songwriting.
Meanwhile across the Atlantic, Business Insider details the Loop tour’s larger scope: it kicks off December 1 in Paris and stretches through to November 2026 in Tampa, with stopovers at major events like New York and Boston’s Jingle Ball alongside acts like Sean Paul and Monsta X. The support bill in North America includes Amble, Sigrid, and even Macklemore—showing the sheer breadth of Ed’s musical draw. And tickets for prime Loop dates are a hot commodity, with fans scrambling between Ticketmaster and resale outlets for seats.
Album side, Play dropped on September 12, and Sheeran has already teased in interviews with iHeartRadio Canada that another full-length, Rewind, is basically complete and will arrive sometime in the next 18 months. Ed describes Play and Rewind as “twin albums”—one flirts with Indian influences, the other with nostalgia. That same week Sheeran made a notable public appearance for a stripped-down TikTok show at New York’s Domino Park, showcasing his new songs in an open-air setting.
On the media circuit, a headline moment comes from BBC Radio 2 where Ed revealed he turned down an offer to become the first pop act in space, citing his daughters and personal anxieties about the risks. He quipped that until interplanetary gigs are as casual as flying to France, he’s staying earthbound—sheer dad energy, if you ask the tabloids.
On the tech and touring front, AV Nation highlighted that Ed’s team debuted the brand-new DiGiCo Quantum112 flypack mixer for a recent Tiny Desk and TikTok Live—sheer proof Ed’s show is as much about cutting-edge production as chart-topping pop.
Across social media, Ed’s Instagram and official profiles remain lively, sharing news about the Loop tour, snippets of backstage life, and playful nods to his kids. Ed’s refusal to leave planet Earth is getting play on TikTok and Twitter, where fans weighed in as only Ed can provoke—mixing awe at his ambition and warm amusement at his grounded priorities. All signs point to another blockbuster year, one that will fuel both the pop culture zeitgeist and future biographers alike.
