Since Ed Sheeran announced a stadium tour of Ireland, hype has been growing surrounding the purchase of tickets.
He has implemented a rule to prevent ticket touting by not allowing people to sell tickets on, once they have purchased them from ticket master.
The person whose name appears on the ticket at time of purchase must attend the concert.
Ed Sheeran recently released a single called ‘Galway Girl’ and he also filmed the video for the song in the city.
