The touring news comes straight off the back of a phenomenal start of 2017 for 26-year-old Ed Sheeran. Kicking-off music in 2017 and delivering the biggest musical comeback in recent years, Ed’s dual singles Shape Of You and Castle On The Hill have taken the globe by storm, hitting the #1 and #2 spots across the charts worldwide while seeing the Suffolk native break a magnitude of records along the way. Ed recently conquered more milestones in the USA after landing his first-ever #1 as a performer on the Billboard Hot 100 with Shape Of You - with Castle On The Hill sitting closely behind at #6 on the chart.
In addition to Ed’s epic rise with his recorded music, the Suffolk-born artist has also broken records in the live sphere over recent years. In July 2015 Ed took to the stage of Wembley Stadium, solo, becoming the first-ever artist to headline the prestigious venue without a band - with just his trademark loop pedal andguitar – seeing him play to 240,000 people over three consecutive sold-out nights.
Not only has Ed caught the headlines with his phenomenal solo concerts, he's also been involved in an array of spellbinding collaborative performances over his career to date, further proving his colossal status in the musical world, such as the very special collaboration with Sir Elton John. In 2012, Ed performed at the London Olympics' closing ceremony alongside members of Pink Floyd and Genesis for a very special version of “Wish You Were Here" and in 2015, Ed shared the stage with Beyonce and Gary Clark Jr. at that year's Grammy tribute for Stevie Wonder.
Ed Sheeran’s genre-defying third studio album ÷ (divide) was released on 3rd March through Asylum/Atlantic Records (available now). The Mumbai concert will be held at a limited capacity venue and tickets will be available on a first-come-first-served basis. Prepare for a once in a lifetime experience with the world’s no.1 musical sensation!
