Singer Ed Sheeran is making a brief visit to Verwood at 11.30am today ahead of a tribute concert taking place tonight at The Hub.

11.50am Update: Looks like this was just a silly April Fool’s Day Story!

Ed Sheeran will be signing autographs and selling official merch on Ferrett’s Green, Manor Way near Costa Coffee from 11.30am before continuing to Paris for his concert tomorrow night.

The singer is on a mini promotional tour to promote his upcoming album release on May 5th, and was attracted to Verwood by the concert at The Hub.

Tribute singer Jack Shepherd has been performing as Ed Sheeran since 2014, in doing so becoming the most established Ed Sheeran tribute act on the globe. He plays at The Hub tonight at 7.30pm.
