Everyone thought that Ed Sheeran was never going back to making music after he welcomed his first child in August 2020, but thankfully, he did not.
Now that the Grammy-winner is back, he is returning with a bang, with the announcement of the "+ - = ÷ x Tour" (read as "Mathematics Tour) in North America.
Fans can start pre-ordering their tickets on Oct. 12 through the American Express Card Member Pre Sale, which will end on Oct. 13. General public selling will commence on Oct. 14 via Ticketmaster at 10:00 a.m.

Highly-Anticipated
According to reports, the 31-year-old singer just finished wrapping up the European leg of his tour, and then he will proceed to Australia and New Zealand at the beginning of 2023 before the North American leg of the tour.
American fans are hyped and can't wait to see the British musician. "Can't wait to see you for a 5th time, sir Sheeran! I've been a fan for so long! I was lucky enough to find a man who shares the same love for you! Cannot wait to share that moment with him! Cheers!" Tweeted a fan.
"I was literally talking about this yesterday with my boyfriend, that I can't wait to see you live!! I'm [so] happy right now. A dream come true," another tweeted.
The "Shape Of You" singer will include support acts from special guests for the North American leg of the highly-anticipated, including Khalid, Russ, Dylan, Rosa Linn, Cat Burns, and Maisie Peters.
World Tour In Sight?
As of this writing, there is no word if the "Thinking Out Loud" singer is planning to head to Asia for his tour. However, it was reported that he plans on retiring from large tours.
"I honestly think that this next tour that I'm going on, at the end of the tour, I can't see myself going on one of them like that again," he said in a podcast episode of "Teach Me a Lesson."
Now that he has a family, he said he wants to prioritize his relationship with them, "I would hate to get to 20 years time and have a relationship with my kids that had suffered because I'd chosen work over them."
In 2021, the singer dropped his most recent album "=" (read as "Equals"), and was described to be a "coming-of-age record."
