Ed Sheeran catapulted to global fame with his debut album, + (Plus), released in 2011, featuring the hugely successful track The A Team that secured the beginning of his success.
Sheeran’s subsequent albums, x (Multiply) and ÷ (Divide) produced monumental hits such as Thinking Out Loud, Shape of You, and Perfect — songs that dominated international charts.
His latest album – (Subtract) is his sixth studio album. It was released on 5 May 2023. It debuted at number one in Australia, Austria, Belgium, the Netherlands, France, Germany, Ireland, New Zealand, Poland, Sweden, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom. It also reached the top ten in eleven other countries including United States, Canada, Italy and Spain.
He will perform in ‘the round’, his signature format featuring a 360-degree central stage, allowing fans to surround the musician and enjoy an unmatched immersive close-up experience. The ‘Shape of You’ singer-songwriter is returning to perform in the UAE for the first time since 2017.
Thomas Ovesen, CEO, All Things Live Middle East, said: “We look forward to welcoming back one of the world’s best-selling artists of all time to the Sevens Stadium to perform his record-breaking Mathematics show. Fans will be treated to Ed Sheeran performing in the round, and for the first time in Dubai since 2017, having already wowed over 3 million fans with an incredible repertoire of music in the Mathematics ‘+ – = ÷ x’ Tour.”
Sheeran’s upcoming Asia dates will be his first since 2019, the Middle East dates will be his first since 2017 and the European shows following on from his stint on the continent last year. The news comes hot on the heels of his record-breaking USA tour, where Ed set multiple attendance records including Los Angeles’ SoFi Stadium and New Jersey’s MetLife Stadium; the latter seeing Ed secure the largest single day concert attendance in the USA, ever.
