Registration for the show began on May 1st and will run until May 2nd at 11:59 p.m. ET. Selected fans will have the opportunity to purchase tickets starting May 6th at 10 a.m. ET through Ticketmaster.
But that’s not all! In addition to the special performance, Ed has announced a deluxe 10th-anniversary edition of x, set to release on June 21st, 2024. This edition will feature nine bonus tracks, including favorites like I See Fire and All of the Stars from blockbuster films.
Taking to Instagram on May 1st, Ed shared the exciting news along with a video featuring multiple versions of himself. Dressed in black hoodies adorned with the album’s iconic green “x”, the singer can be seen engaging in various activities while his hit song Sing is heard playing in the background. In the caption, Ed reflected on the album’s creation, spanning his personal journey from 2011 to 2014.
“10th anniversary of Multiply this year, which feels wild but also a lot has happened in that 10 years. This album was made from 2011 – 2014, and spanned my whole personal life through that time, which was a mad time,” the Singing Out Loud hitmaker wrote.
“Going from playing pubs and clubs to selling arenas in those years, falling in and out of love, travelling all round the world, working with some of the best producers in the world, it was a real rollercoaster, and it’s been amazing to revisit all the memories,” he added.
Telling his fans that he cannot wait to “experience the multiply show” with them and “remember some amazing moments over this summer together,” Ed concluded, “Multiply anniversary show is on 22nd May at Barclays Center New York.
