When And Where It’s All Going Down

Ed Sheeran will take the Sydney stage at Accor Stadium in Sydney Olympic Park. Sydney dates will fall over Valentine's Day weekend: Friday 13–Sunday 15 February, so you know what to get for your partner who's a diehard A Team fan.

Getting To Accor Stadium

Accor Stadium is huge (like, 80,000 screaming fans huge), so plan your journey unless you want your pre-show excitement replaced by mild transport panic.

Your best bet? Public transport.

• Train: The fastest way in. Hop a train to Olympic Park Station, with direct services running from the CBD and major hubs every few minutes.
• Bus: Routes like the 526 will get you close, and extra services usually run on big show nights.
• Car: Sure, you can drive, but parking fills up fast and traffic post-show is glacial. If you’re determined, pre-book parking via the Sydney Olympic Park website.
