Ed Sheeran has announced a headline show at Dublin's 3Arena on 30 March as part of a mini-tour of the UK and Europe to launch the first single from his upcoming new album, '-‘ (subtract).

Tickets are priced at €105.85, with a ticket limit of six per purchase, and will be on sale from Ticketmaster at 9am on Friday, 10 March.

These are the singer's only UK and European scheduled shows for 2023 and he is set to play a host of fan favourites in addition to his yet-to-be-announced brand new single.

'-‘ (subtract) is out on 5 May and is described as "soul-baring" and follows Sheeran’s revelation that his wife Cherry Seaborn was told by doctors she had a tumour while pregnant with their second child.

According to the singer, the new album is the last in his decade-spanning mathematical album era and is said to be "an album that revisits Ed's singer/songwriter roots, and one that was written against a backdrop of personal grief and hope, '-’ (Subtract) presents one of the biggest stars on the planet at his most vulnerable and honest".

In a statement, the concert promotor said, "Once again, Ed and his team have a strict stance against anyone using unofficial secondary ticketing sites in order to try and stop fans being exploited when trying to buy tickets for his shows.

"The shows on this tour will use specially developed mobile digital ticketing technology which have safeguards in place to ensure genuine fans are buying genuine tickets, and to stop unofficial secondary ticketing sites, and unofficial ticket sellers, from being able to resell tickets at inflated prices and rip off fans.

"Fans with tickets, who become unable to go to the shows, will be able to sell their tickets to other fans at the price they paid + a booking fee through the official fan to fan face value resale platform at the place they purchased the tickets.

They added, "The promoters urge all customers to only use the official ticket sites listed at Edsheeran.com and are reminded that Viagogo is not an official ticket vendor for this tour.

"As per previous Ed Sheeran tours, the promoters will be monitoring the sales transactions in conjunction with the National Trading Standards Cyber Crime team, to identify purchases which are in contravention of the terms and conditions for the sale of the Ed Sheeran tickets. All ticket purchases that contravene these terms and conditions will be subject to possible cancellation."
