Ed Sheeran Set to Rock Melbourne Again with 2026 Loop Tour
Hey everyone, exciting news! One of the biggest names in global music, Ed Sheeran, has just announced his long-awaited return to Australia — and yes, he’s coming back to Melbourne! This is not just another tour; it’s Sheeran’s brand-new Loop Tour , and it’s already generating major buzz around the country. After his last record-breaking visit in 2023, the bar is set incredibly high — but if anyone can raise it, it's Ed.

Let me take you back a bit. In March 2023, Ed Sheeran pulled off something monumental. He played back-to-back shows at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) to crowds of 110,000 and 108,000 fans — setting the Australian record for the largest ticketed concert attendance. That was part of his Mathematics Tour , and it wasn't even his first time breaking records. In 2018, his Divide Tour sold over a million tickets across Australia and New Zealand, dethroning Dire Straits’ decades-old benchmark. It’s safe to say, when Ed comes Down Under, it’s never small.
Now, for 2026, he's taking it up a notch with a fresh stage design, an innovative new production style, and a setlist that includes both fan favorites and brand-new tracks from his upcoming album Play , which is set to drop this September. He’s described Play as a deeply personal album, born out of a tough chapter in his life, and influenced by a global mix of sounds — from India to the Middle East. Singles like “Azizam,” “Old Phone,” and “Sapphire” are already making waves.
Melbourne fans, mark your calendars: Ed will be performing at Marvel Stadium on February 26 and 27, 2026. Expect a mix of intimate acoustic vibes, powerful visuals, and those classic Sheeran singalongs we all know and love. Whether you’ve seen him live before or this will be your first time, this is the kind of show you don’t want to miss.
Tickets go on sale at 1pm AEST on Tuesday, July 29, via Ticketek. Prices range from $109.90 to $249.90, and trust me, they’re going to sell fast. So get ready, Melbourne — Ed Sheeran is coming back, and it’s going to be unforgettable.
