Selling-out stadiums across the globe, Ed recently finished his native UK run including four sold-out nights at London’s Wembley Stadium – the troubadour sold over 1.1 million tickets in the UK alone, marking one of the biggest tours the UK has ever seen.
Earlier this year, Sheeran was announced as the IFPI’s best-selling global recording artist of 2017 after the release of his record-breaking, third studio album ÷ (pronounced “divide”) last March.
The LP has now sold over 15 million copies across the globe.
÷ spawned Ed’s monster hit singles Shape of You, which was the UK’s third biggest-selling single of all time and the most-streamed track on Spotify, ever, Castle on the Hill, Galway Girl and Perfect.
Ed was awarded a MBE for his services to music and charity at the end of 2017 and last month, Ed took home two prestigious Ivor Novello Awards for ‘Songwriter of the Year’ and ‘Most Performed Work’ for Shape of You.
To date, he has won five BRIT Awards, four Ivor Novello’s, four Grammy’s and six Billboard Music Awards.
