When did Ed Sheeran tickets go on sale? How much are they?
Tickets went on general sale on Saturday 8 July.
Tickets for the four extra dates (May 27, June 3, June 10 and June 21) went on sale on Tuesday July 11, with extra tickets released on Thursday July 13 for Glasgow (June 3) and Newcastle (June 10).
Will tickets be available from resellers?
Ed and his management have spoken out about unscrupulous ticket sellers in the past.
In an effort to combat touting on this tour, the official site warns that to gain entry to a gig you're required to bring tickets, booking confirmation and credit card, plus a form of ID.
However, as with this year's tour, Ed is teaming up with Twickets to allow fans to legitimately buy and sell unwanted tickets.
When is Ed Sheeran’s next album due out?
It's safe to assume that Ed's fourth studio album will be titled Subtract or Minus.
The album will compete the quadrilogy of mathematically named albums, after Plus (+), Multiply (X) and Divide (÷).
In an interview with Bizarre’s Dan Wooton, Ed revealed that he has six or seven songs ready and that it’s “very acoustic”.
However, the singer-songwriter refused to be drawn on a release date.
