Written by Jon Stickler
Multi-award winning Ed Sheeran will return to UK and Ireland stages in October for his first headline tour since Autumn 2012.
Currently working on a brand new album, the Grammy-nominated, multi-platinum selling, Madison Square Garden Sheeran was recently selected by Academy Award-winning filmmaker Peter Jackson, to write, produce and record I See Fire, an original song for the film The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug. Although the track wont appear on the new record, you can catch it soundtracking the end credits of the film.
Speaking about the new tour, Sheeran says:
"I can't wait to tour this new record, it's been a long time coming. Looking forward to touring the UK and Ireland once again!"
Sheeran gets his new tour underway at Dublin's O2 Arena on October 6 before performing at Belfast Odyssey Arena on October 10. The tour then heads to arenas in Leeds, London, Birmingham, Nottingham, Newcastle and Manchester, before closing at Glasgow Hydro Arena on October 30.

WHEN DO TICKETS FOR ED SHEERAN GO ON SALE?

HOW DO I GET HOLD OF ED SHEERAN TICKETS?
As with any big ticket on sale, demand is expected to be high - as fans bombard ticket sites in the hope of grabbing themselves some Ed Sheeran tickets. Don't be too disheartened if you miss out in the initial on sale, as no doubt many others will too. Demand for shows like this typically always outstrip supply many times over.
Ensure you are logged in 10 minutes before tickets go on sale (9am Friday) and be prepared to wait in virtual online queues. You're best chances of getting tickets are usually found through the lesser known ticket agencies - such as Gigantic, Eventim and AXS - most fans will go straight to Ticketmaster.
If tickets are available with any of these sellers, they will be able to purchase on our Ed Sheeran Tickets pages here. Other places to try are the venue's website, also other ticket sites that may have tickets available, which might be worth trying, are The Ticket Factory and See Tickets.
Additionally, on some rare occasions the promoter and venue may add extra dates to meet demand if there's space in Ed Sheeran's diary - so stay tuned at Stereoboard.com for any news on added shows and ticket release information!
TICKETS HAVE SOLD OUT! WHAT DO I DO NOW?
When the inevitable news arrives, tickets have sold out, don't despair. Tickets can still be purchased through secondary ticket exchange sites. These sites are completely safe to purchase from, but be prepared to pay a premium for sold out and in demand tickets (you can sometimes be lucky and pay less, but rarely during the initial day of on sale).
