ED SHEERAN – superstar’s all-new LOOP TOUR starts this Friday in NZ! AU shows on sale now
One of the biggest artists on the planet is officially back down under! Global superstar Ed Sheeran kicks off his all-new Loop Tour in New Zealand this week, launching his massive latest tour run with an opening night on Friday 16 January at Auckland’s GO Media Stadium.
Spanning 17 stadium shows across Aotearoa and Australia, the Loop Tourmarks Ed Sheeran’s long-awaited return to our shores and the beginning of a bold new chapter in his exceptional live career. Following years of record-breaking tours and historic global performances, fans can expect a spectacular, career-spanning show – new music from his chart-topping 2025 album Play (recent singles ‘Azizam’, ‘Sapphire’ and ‘Camera’); hits from his unparalleled catalogue (Shape Of You’, ‘Thinking Out Loud’, ‘Castle On The Hill’, ‘Perfect’, ‘Bad Habits’, ‘Shivers’ and many more); and the loop-pedal mastery that has made Ed Sheeran one of the most compelling live performers of his generation.
The Loop Tour follows the conclusion of Ed’s extraordinary Mathematics Tour, which sold over 8 million tickets across more than 140 headline shows in 42 countries. Now, with a completely new production and creative vision, Ed Sheeran is once again redefining what a global stadium tour can look like, and New Zealand and Australian audiences will be the first in the world to experience the new Loop Tour.
In 2025, the singer continued to push boundaries by taking his live show to places stadium-level artists rarely – if ever – visit. He performed a historic first-of-its-kind show in Bhutan, followed by an interior India tour, six landmark shows in China, and multiple dates across the Middle East, expanding his global footprint and reaffirming his commitment to connecting with fans everywhere. That same adventurous spirit now arrives in NZ and Australia with the Loop Tour.
Known for commanding stadiums solo, Sheeran’s live shows are celebrated for their intimacy, scale and emotional connection – no matter the size of the crowd.
Joining him on the road is: Vance Joy (all shows AU/NZ); Melbourne star Mia Wray (all shows AU/NZ); all-female Irish collective BIIRD (NZ + Perth); and Irish singer-songwriter Aaron Rowe (Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne + Adelaide).
Since his debut over a decade ago, Ed Sheeran has become one of the most successful artists of all time, amassing tens of billions of streams, multiple GRAMMY Awards, countless #1 singles and albums, and a reputation as one of the most innovative and hardworking performers in modern music. His previous tours of Australia and New Zealand have consistently broken attendance records, including historic stadium shows that redefined what a solo artist could achieve on this scale.
