Ed Sheeran announces 4 new UK dates

Ed Sheeran has just added further four dates to his sold out UK 2018 tour and tickets for those shows will be available to buy very soon through KISS Tickets.

These new dates are in addition to the eight extra dates he announced for his 2018 tour recently! Ed's 2018 tour will start just a month after his current '÷ Tour' finishes in April 2018.

Due to phenomenal demand Ed has now released the following dates:

• Sunday 27th May - Etihad Stadium, Manchester
• Sunday 3rd June - Hamden Park, Glasgow
• Sunday 10th June - St James' Park, Newcastle
• Thursday 21st June - Principality Stadium, Cardiff

You will be able to buy tickets for Ed's newly announced shows from 9am tomorrow through KISS Tickets.

Ed announced the new shows in classic Ed fashion, posting a video of a ginger cat yawning on Instagram, with the caption 'more stadium dates going up tomorrow in Europe too, as pretty much all of that has gone too. Couldn't find a picture to tweet so here are my chats being sleepy and cute.'

Earlier this year Ed made a massive comeback after having a year out to write and travel the world. In January he released 'Castle On The Hill' and 'Shape of You' and in March he made history with his album '÷' which became the fastest-selling album by a male artist.

Here at KISS we were lucky enough to be treated to an acoustic session with Ed Sheeran, here are a few of videos from his visit.

Here he is performing 'Shape of You' using just a loop pedal:

Lastly Ed performed a song for us made famous by Justin Bieber, but actually written by Ed himself, 'Love Yourself': As well as 'Love Yourself' Ed has written a number of other songs for other artists,here are just a few.
