We have our first massive football stadium show announcement for 2026 in Denver, and although he’s a global pop icon, he does have country music ties!
Ed Sheeran has announced Thursday morning (Sept. 18) that his 2026 stadium tour will come to Denver.
Sheeran’s “LOOP Tour” will make a stop at Empower Field at Mile High on Saturday, July 4, 2026.
Fans can sign up for first ticket access at EdSheeran.com.
The artist presale begins Tuesday, Sept. 23, at 9 a.m. MT. A venue presale begins Thursday, Sept. 25, at 10 a.m. MT using presale code “SHEERDEN”. The general ticket sale is scheduled for Friday, Sept. 26, at 10 a.m. MT.
Ed was recently being interviewed and admitted that Nashville is his favorite city in the U.S.
And it’s not like he’s new to the country scene, he’s shared a stage with Luke Combs… sang with Chris Stapleton… and even did a surprise set at the iconic honky-tonk Tootsie’s.
Here’s what he had to say, “I feel like I have to do it properly… like once you transition to country, you can’t transition back… It’s a genre you have to really respect. It’s not just, dip in and out.”
Who knew Ed Sheeran had so much love for the country music world?
