## Background

 File:Wiki Ed Sheeran 2022-tour CPH IMG20220803204722.jpg  On 17 September 2021, Sheeran announced a 27-date European tour. As soon as tickets went on sale, dates were added to several locations across the tour due to overwhelming demand, bringing the overall number of shows to 64. On 15 March 2022, Sheeran announced the Oceania leg of the tour. Tickets are currently scheduled to go on-sale on 23 March 2022. On 22 March 2022, Sheeran added 3 shows to the Oceania leg of the tour; in Brisbane, Sydney, and Melbourne. On 15 June 2022, Sheeran added an additional 3 shows to the Oceania leg of the tour; in Wellington, Auckland, and Brisbane. On 20 September 2022, the additional Wellington show scheduled for 1 February 2023 was canceled citing on-going uncertainties affecting a number of different variables with global touring. In October 2022, Sheeran announced that the North American leg of the tour would occur in 2023. In October 2023, he announced the Asian leg of the tour that would occur in early 2024.

Sheeran brought his family (wife Cherry and daughters Lyra and Jupiter) along on this tour (though they do not appear with him onstage). During early 2022, they all lived together for two months in a rented bungalow in Auckland from which he commuted to the Australia and New Zealand venues. They watched *North by Northwest* in Peter Jackson's home cinema in Wellington together with Jackson and James Cameron.
