Ed Sheeran Announces Dates for North American Arena Tour Launching This June!

ET reports exclusively that Ed Sheeran will be launching an arena tour at venues throughout North America this June. The 26-year-old Grammy winner tells ET, "It starts in June. I know we're going for four months, so it's within a fair few venues in the US, and then we're doing a bigger tour next year. People will get the opportunity to see the show they want to."

He explains that the new tour will have a different feel than his past outings. "The staging and what's behind me [is going to be different from my past tours]," he says. "I've put a lot of the time and effort into it, and it's gonna look impressive. In terms of it being a show... now I can do a show where it's singles, which is something I haven't been able to do before."

He continues, "I've never actually made an album with time off. I've always made my album on the road where... well, it's not the most stable place for a relationship or a life. You know, you kind of live in a bubble that you create. That's how tour is, but it's a very weird environment to be in [while] making an album."
