Sheeran’s announcement coincided with an appearance on NBC’s TODAY.
“First of all, did your tweet go out?” asked TODAY host Carson Daly. “Did you make the big announcement on the tour, did that go out?”
Sheeran replied, “I don’t know, let’s just make it now.”
Sheeran’s tour will have him perform 48 times over the course of four months.
On August 5, the singer songwriter will play at Gila River Arena in Glendale, Arizona. He plays in Las Vegas the day before.
