The upcoming ‘+ – = ÷ x Tour’ (or ‘The Mathematics Tour’) will be Sheeran’s first string of shows in the region since 2018.

In late May, Ed Sheeran released a “tour” edition of his latest album, ‘=’, which includes a total of nine additional tracks, two of which – ‘I Will Remember You’ and ‘Welcome To The World’ – are completely new.

The songs ‘One Life’ and ‘Penguins’ come from the 2019 film Yesterday, while the remaining tracks are previously released collaborative tracks such as ‘The Joker And The Queen’ with Taylor Swift and ‘Bad Habits’ with Bring Me The Horizon.
