How to buy tickets?

On Friday, October 14 at 10 a.m., Ticketmaster will begin selling tickets to the general public. 

Seats are now available for purchase on StubHub, Vivid Seats, TicketNetwork, TicketCity, and MegaSeats. Speculative tickets frequently become available on the secondary market first. Tickets, though, can be more expensive than those offered to the general public. 

The Mathematics tour will be the first to visit North America since Sheeran’s 2018 Divide Tour, which became the most-attended and highest-grossing tour of all time. According to a press release announcing the North American dates, Sheeran performed for more than three million people in six months during the recently concluded UK/European leg of the “Mathematics” tour.

Ed Sheeran was most recently in the news for allegedly stealing some of the elements of the 1973 song ‘Let’s Get It On’ for his song Thinking Out Loud. Previously, Sheeran’s lawyers had requested that the case be dismissed because the alleged stolen elements of Marvin Gaye’s 1973 song were completely ordinary and not valid to be challenged.

However, according to the most recent ruling by Judge Louis Stanton, there is no hard and fast rule in such a case, and a work may be subject to copyright even if it was compiled from unprotected elements.
