Sheeran also announced via his Instagram the new tour. He uploaded a photo of himself holding his guitar and captioned the post with, “Starting a brand new tour next year called the LOOP tour. New stage, new tricks, new set-up, new songs, and all the classics added in. We kick it off in Australia and New Zealand in Jan, Feb, and March 2026, which is always the best time.
