Ed Sheeran is getting ready for his first stateside tour in nearly five years!
On Monday, the four-time Grammy winner announced dates for the North American leg of his ongoing + - = ÷ x (pronounced "Mathematics") Tour, which will span stadium venues across the United States and Canada from May to September 2023.
Kicking off at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, on May 6, the North American leg of the + - = ÷ x Tour will make stops in cities including Atlanta, Philadelphia, Toronto, Nashville, Chicago, Seattle, Las Vegas and Los Angeles before concluding on Sept. 23 at the SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California.
Opening for Sheeran, 31, on select dates throughout the North American run of shows are musicians including Khalid, Russ, Dylan, Cat Burns, Maisie Peters and Rosa Linn.
Khalid, 24, will perform in 18 cities from opening night in Arlington, Texas, to Sept. 2 in Vancouver, while Russ, 30, will replace him in the final three cities: Las Vegas as well as California's Santa Clara and Inglewood.
Dylan, 22, is set to appear at six North American dates from opening night through June 10 in New Jersey. Then, 22-year-old Linn will join Sheeran from June 17 in Toronto through July 15 in Detroit.
Burns 22, will take the stage ahead of the "2step" musician from the July 22 show in Nashville through Aug. 19 in Denver. Finally, 22-year-old Peters will perform in the final four cities from Aug. 26 in Seattle through Sept. 23 in Inglewood.
