Clear your calendars, Sheerios.
Ed Sheeran just announced his summer 2026 ‘Loop Tour’ that will send him to stadiums all over North America from June through November.
Midway through the 31-concert run in support of his recently-released album “Play,” the four-time Grammy winner is slated to make a pair of stops in the Garden State. He’ll be at MetLife Stadium on:
Friday, Sept. 4
5:30 p.m.
Saturday, Sept. 5
5:30 p.m.
“New stage, new setlist, new tricks,” the 34-year-old shared via Instagram. “I LOVE touring North America, I’ve always felt so much love there since the first gig I did in LA and Toronto back in 2010. Can’t wait to be back, see you all there from spring 2026.”
Ahead of the jaunt, the “Shape of You” singer will lend his talents to Las Vegas’ iHeartRadio Music Festival on Saturday, Sept. 20 and Newark, NJ’s We Can Survive at the Prudential Center on Saturday, Sept. 26.
He’ll be joined by Goo Goo Dolls, Alex Warren, Shaboozey and Lola Young at We Can Survive show, which supports Audacy’s I’m Listening mental health initiative. A portion of the event’s proceeds will be donated to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP).
Prior to the 2026 trek, Sheeran last headlined stadiums on his 2023 ‘Mathematics Tour.’
“The British singer-songwriter put on an engaging two-hour show of ballads, pop rockers and a little hip-hop, too, for the nearly 80,000 at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford,” North Jersey wrote in a rave review of the June ’23 gig. “Voices rose, bodies swayed and inhibitions lessened.”
More recently, he celebrated the tenth anniversary of his 2014 album “X” at Barclays Center last May and then played Brooklyn’s Domino Park on Sept. 13 to promote “Play.”

Although the soulful troubadour will likely go all out with career-spanning sets at his stadium shows, here’s what he took to the stage at Brooklyn’s Domino Park on Sept. 13, according to Set List FM:
01.) “Sapphire”
02.) “A Little More”
03.) “Old Phone”
04.) “Camera”
05.) “Slowly”
06.) “Symmetry”
07.) “The Vow”
08.) “Perfect”
09.) “Shape of You”
10.) “Azizam”
On Sept. 12, Sheeran dropped his eighth album “Play.”
The extended version, which is comprised of 18 tracks, starts on a melancholy note with “Opening” before the Brit starts spitting speedy rhymes. It’s a nice fakeout indicating that won’t be a series of straight ballads but a sonically adventurous collection of tunes.
Highlights include the bouncy singalong “Sapphire,” surefire chart-topper “Azizam” (we dare you to get this one out of your head, it’s that catchy), strummy, acoustic “Problems,” soulful, Motown-esque “A Little More” and sultry club banger “Symmetry.”
Make sure to keep an eye out for “The Vow,” too. If you’re looking for a wedding first dance song, this is a prime candidate. Sweet, sentimental and charming, it might be the perfect song to help kick off a marriage.
