Tour Overview
The LOOP Tour opened with five New Zealand performances in Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch. The Australian run followed with 12 stadium dates across Perth, Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne and Adelaide. After a short break, Sheeran played seven Latin American dates in May before beginning the North American stadium run in June.
The North American schedule includes multi-night runs in Toronto, East Rutherford and Foxborough. Hollywood uses Hard Rock Live rather than a conventional outdoor stadium. After the November 7 Tampa performance, the tour returns to Latin America for Santiago, Asunción, Buenos Aires, São Paulo and Mexico City.
The live show keeps Sheeran at the center of the production. The LOOP setup uses a main stage and secondary circular stage, allowing the performance to move between large production and the more stripped-back looping format associated with his concerts.

Opening Acts and Support Artists
Support varies by market rather than following one worldwide opening act. Australian and New Zealand dates featured Vance Joy, Mia Wray, Biird and Aaron Rowe. Ticketmaster currently lists Aaron Rowe, Myles Smith, Ellie Banke, Sigrid, Lukas Graham, BIIRD and Macklemore among the special guests for selected North American dates.
Fans should check the individual event listing for the confirmed supporting artist on their specific date.
Tickets and Presales
Ticketing is venue-specific. For North America, the official tour FAQ names Ticketmaster as the authorized seller for most markets and SeatGeek for State Farm Stadium, Nissan Stadium and AT&T Stadium. It also states that tickets can only be accessed through the iOS or Android app of the applicable official ticketing company.
For Australia and New Zealand, authorized agencies include AXS, Ticketek and Ticketmaster depending on the venue. Ed Sheeran’s Australian terms specifically warn fans against unauthorized ticket operators and identify the authorized agencies for each market.
Latin American ticketing varies by country and should be checked through the official Ed Sheeran tour listing or the local promoter. Resale listings should not be treated as evidence of primary-ticket availability.
Attendee Information
Mobile ticketing is a key requirement for the North American shows, but entry procedures remain venue-specific. Fans should download the relevant official ticketing app before traveling and make sure tickets are accessible without relying on a screenshot.
Bag rules, parking, accessibility services, age restrictions and gate times also vary by venue. Check the official venue and ticketing instructions for the exact performance before leaving for the show.
The LOOP Tour schedule has changed and expanded since its original announcement, so older date lists can be incomplete. For planning purposes, use the current official schedule and authorized ticketing information for the specific city and date.
