Pop superstar Ed Sheeran is set to captivate fans with an exclusive, intimate performance at Irving Plaza on September 24, 2025, as part of SiriusXM’s Small Stage Series presented by REESE’S. The concert will showcase hits spanning Sheeran’s career alongside new material from his upcoming album “Play,” which releases September 12, providing attendees a rare opportunity to experience his music in a venue considerably smaller than his typical arena shows.
While physical attendance is limited by Irving Plaza’s capacity, SiriusXM subscribers nationwide will gain access to the full performance beginning September 30 at 6 p.m. ET on the dedicated Ed Sheeran Channel (channel 79). Select songs will also be broadcast across multiple SiriusXM stations including Hits 1, The Pulse, 10s Spot, and The Coffee House, extending the reach of this exclusive New York performance to listeners across North America.
SiriusXM subscribers nationwide can experience Ed Sheeran’s intimate Irving Plaza show through special broadcasts across multiple channels.
The intimate concert comes amid Sheeran’s busy New York schedule, which includes a September 26 appearance at the Prudential Center for the “We Can Survive” concert supporting cancer awareness. Fans can expect other performers including Goo Goo Dolls and Alex Warren to join the lineup at this special event. Fans can look forward to hearing new singles including Azizam and Sapphire performed live. Earlier in 2025, Sheeran celebrated his 10-year anniversary as a major artist with a special show at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center on May 22, demonstrating his ongoing connection to the New York music scene.
These New York appearances complement Sheeran’s massive +−=÷× Mathematics Tour, which encompasses 168 shows worldwide between 2023 and 2025. The tour has featured notable guest appearances and setlists blending material from throughout his career, creating substantial demand for his New York performances regardless of venue size. Sheeran has also been actively engaging with fans through social media platforms to build anticipation and promote these exclusive performances.
Independent artists looking to follow Sheeran’s success can utilize various streaming platforms to distribute their music and build a similar dedicated fanbase.
Ticket availability for the Irving Plaza show remains limited, with prices for Sheeran’s performances typically averaging around $150 but varying considerably based on seating and demand.
The SiriusXM broadcast offers an alternative access point for fans unable to secure tickets to the physical event, allowing them to experience this unique New York performance through on-demand streaming via the SiriusXM app long after the final notes have sounded at Irving Plaza.
