Abu Dhabi (Aletihad)
A social meet tweet by British pop star Ed Sheeran has sent the UAE’s music lovers in frenzy after he teased that Dubai is one of the scheduled stops on his Asia tour, also dubbed as “Mathematics Tour”. The singer-songwriter said he would give out the details on November 6.
However, fans are getting ready to “plus”, “multiply”, “divide”, and “subtract” – even as the concert is speculated for early 2024, after a gap of seven years since he last performed here. The mathematical symbols are the names of his albums and hence the set list for the concert named accordingly.
Sheeran said in his message that he was “coming back on the road” next year, and that he is excited to perform in some of his “favourite countries and cities in the world”.
Fans can expect to hear some of the biggest tracks from his six studio albums, including smash-hit singles from the archives like A Team, Thinking Out Loud, Castle On The Hill, Shape of You, Perfect and Photograph.
Fans can also expect to hear a string of Sheeran’s more recent tracks from his two studio album releases from 2023 – Minus and Autumn Variations.
Based on the latest information posted on his website, Dubai is indeed included as one of the stops for his tour. The details of when and where is yet to be revealed.
Besides Dubai, the megastar is also performing in Bahrain and a host of other Asian countries. He will be in Manila, Philippines, on March 9 and Mumbai, India, on March 16.
Ed Sheeran last performed in Dubai in 2017, when he headlined at the Autism Rocks Arena.
