Ed Sheeran brings his record-breaking ‘+ - = ÷ x’  Tour for two nights to Dubai.

PLUS special guest: CALUM SCOTT 

Get ready for an unforgettable night as global superstar Ed Sheeran brings his +-=÷x Tour to Dubai in what will be the largest open-air event ever to take place in Dubai. Brought to the Emirate by All Things Live Middle East and supported by Dubai Calendar and Coca-Cola Arena, Sheeran, who has sold more than 150 million records worldwide, will perform at the Sevens Stadium for what is promising to be an unforgettable two-night only music marvel for tens of thousands of residents and visitors alike.

Sheeran, who has already released two albums in 2023, ‘Autumn Variations’ and ‘-‘ (Deluxe) featuring hit single ‘Eyes Closed’, will perform in ‘the round’, his signature format featuring a 360-degree central stage, allowing fans to surround the musician and enjoy an unmatched immersive close-up experience.  The ‘Shape of You’ singer-songwriter is returning to perform in the UAE for the first time since 2017.

Experience the Ed Sheeran concert in a new way with the 360 in-the-round set-up;

• 
Standing -  GA Category on the Pitch: Get up close to the stage and action and be part of the excitement with a standing ticket on the pitch. If you want to be able to dance around and enjoy the concert from the crowd this is where to be.

• 
East and West Unreserved Seating: Enjoy the show from the comfort of the loved and trusted Rugby 7 grandstands. These unreserved seating areas offer an elevated view of the stage but at the rear of the venue, creating an atmosphere that's perfect for sharing with friends and fellow fans wanting to have a place to sit before and during the show.

• 
Cushioned reserved seating*: For those who prefer the best comfort, our cushioned seating provides tiered flip seats, specially built for this event with take-home cushions as a unique memento from the event along with a great view of the stage. You'll have a dedicated spot to enjoy the concert, ensuring a fantastic view of Ed Sheeran's incredible performance.

*Please be aware that as the show is in the round, with the stage also revolving, sometimes in these seats (with the best stage proximity) you will have the best view in the house, at other times your view of the artist might be non-frontal but at all times you have a fantastic sound and in addition great screen projections.

What is unethical secondary ticketing and ticket resale?

Unethical secondary ticketing is when people buy tickets at face value and then re-sell them at inflated prices via non-artist approved methods and websites, thus denying real fans the chance to buy at face value.

Ticket touts and unauthorised resellers use multiple payment cards, false identities and sophisticated computer programmes (‘bots’) to buy up large amounts of tickets which they then offer for resale at highly inflated prices.

How many tickets can I buy?

There will be a strict limit of 8 tickets per show date per person. This restriction is in place in order to give as many people as possible a fair chance to buy tickets. The whole party must arrive at the same time as the Lead Purchaser holding the tickets matching their valid photo ID.

PLEASE NOTE that any and all transactions that are detected as bot purchases, patrons creating duplicate accounts in order to purchase more than the ticket limit or any action that indicates a suspicious purchase in excess of the ticket limit will be cancelled

What is a Lead Purchaser?

A Lead Purchaser is the name of the cardholder or the name input during the booking process.[MB1]  You can find the name of the Lead Purchaser in the confirmation email and on your ticket.

It is important that the Lead Purchaser arrives with their group and their matching, valid photo ID to enter the event.

But we want to go as a bigger group/family?

You will have to try to complete another order with another Lead Purchaser's name and card as each person is allowed a max of 8 tickets.

Can I buy tickets as a gift?  

The matching photo ID with the surname of the Lead Purchaser will be an entry requirement, the other tickets bought by that person can be used for other people as long as they ALL arrive with the Lead Purchaser.  If you want to buy as gifts then you’ll also have to attend to get your recipients into the show.

What are the entry requirements?

To gain access to the concert you are required to bring your ticket with a clear and undamaged barcode visible. You may be required to produce your email booking confirmation and a valid form of photo ID that matches the name on the confirmation.
