Ed Sheeran will kick off his latest massive stadium tour with a huge gig at Croke Park next April.
The 30-year-old superstar will fill one of the open Croker concert slots on April 23, Aiken Promotions announced on Wednesday.
This will be the first of four Irish shows - which will see the Shape of You hitmaker also play Paire Ui Chaoimh in Cork, Thomond Park in Limerick, and Boucher Road Playing Fields in Belfast.
The '+ - = ÷ x' tour (aka the Mathematics Tour), will start next spring, with Sheeran initially announcing dates across Europe.
The series of shows will follow on from the highly-anticipated release of his new album '=' in October.
Tickets will be available on the Ed Sheeran website, with tickets going on sale this Friday, September 24, at 8am.
A spokeswoman said: "Ed’s upcoming ‘+ - = ÷ x Tour’ will see Ed return to stadiums for the first time since his record-breaking ‘Divide Tour’: taking place from 2017-2019, it officially became the most-attended and highest-grossing tour, ever, by the time of its completion.
"On next year’s dates, fans will get to see Ed perform an array of tracks off his upcoming album, ‘=’, live for the first time, and they will also experience a new production set-up with Ed’s staging in the round, surrounded by the crowd in each stadium."
The Irish dates are as follows:
- Croke Park, Dublin - April 23, 2022
- Páirc Uí Chaoimh, Co Cork - April 28, 2022
- Thomond Park, Co Limerick - May 5, 2022
- Boucher Road Playing Fields, Co Antrim - May 12, 2022
