What Makes LOOP Different?

Expect a fresh theatrical experience: brand-new stage design, striking visuals, and surprises on deck with new tracks from Play blended with Sheeran favorites and classic hits. Following the record-breaking success of his Mathematics Tour (with over 6 million attendees), LOOP marks the next evolution in an ever-innovating live show experience.

Play — Ed’s New Musical Era

Released on September 12, 2025, Play is the first of a planned five-album series (Pause, Rewind, Fast-forward, Stop) built on media control symbols. The album fuses influences from Persian and Indian musical cultures with Ed’s Irish folk roots, a sonic journey Billboard called “a brand new era” and USA Today praised for its emotional depth and tenderness.
