Following his recent return with two hit singles, Ed Sheeran is heading back out on tour after more than year off.

He will play the O2 on May 1, 2 and 3. Tickets are on sale now and can be bought here.

The three shows are set to be his only London dates, and mark his first major gigs in the capital since he became the first person to ever play Wembley Stadium without a band, in 2015.

Sheeran fans willing to travel have a chance to catch him elsewhere across the country at these shows:

April 19 and 20: Newcastle’s Metro Radio Arena

April 22 and 23: the Manchester Arena

April 25 and 26: Nottingham’s Motorpoint Arena

April 28 and 29: Birmingham’s Barclaycard Arena

Tickets for all these shows can be bought here.

The shows support the Castle On The Hill singer’s latest album, ÷ (Divide), which is out on March 3.

The Suffolk-born 25-year-old recently told the Daily Star that he has his mum to thank for his A-star art A-level, saying: “I didn’t turn up for the last four months of school and she didn’t want me to fail my art exam.

“So she did it for me because it was a practical.”

“They do like a portfolio, I was just away touring saying: ‘No mum and I’m going to be a famous musician.’ And she’s like: ‘No you have to get your grades.’ Then she did it and got 100%!”
