Back in January, Sheeran's “Mathematics” tour played three dates in Japan. There were two shows in Osaka and one in Tokyo. He has since gone to Taiwan, Thailand, and Singapore.
The “Mathematics” tour originally commenced in April 2022. In 2023, Sheeran took the show across North America and is now going across Asia and Europe.
2023 was a career year for Sheeran. First, he released Subtract, the final entry in his math symbol-titled albums. The album would receive a Best Pop Vocal Album nomination at the Grammys, going up against the likes of Olivia Rodrigo's Guts and Miley Cyrus' Endless Summer Vacation. He ultimately lost to Taylor Swift's Midnights.
Later in the year, Sheeran released Autumn Variations. The album seemed to signify the start of a new era for the singer. More albums named after seasons seem to be on the horizon for Sheeran. For now, he has to wrap up the “Mathematics” tour after three years on the road.
