One of the world’s biggest music superstars is coming to Toronto for the first time in five years, and the concert is adding up to a memorable time.

Ed Sheeran is bringing his popular + – = ÷ x Tour (the Mathematics Tour) to Rogers Centre on Saturday, June 17, 2023, along with special guests Khalid and Rosa Linn.

Tickets for the huge stadium show go on sale Friday, October 14 at 10 am, as announced by the Toronto Blue Jays on Twitter this morning. It is one of only two Canadian stops currently planned for the tour.

His previous North American tour, 2018’s ÷ Tour, is the highest-grossing and best-attended tour of all time. Sheeran also recently released a new Pokémon-inspired song called “Celestial,” which will appear on the upcoming Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet for the Nintendo Switch.

Fans will also be treated to a performance by six-time Grammy-nominated Khalid, known for chart-topping songs like “Talk” and Love Lies.” The R&B star was named one of Time magazine’s 100 Most Influential People in 2019.
