How much is Ed Sheeran worth?

Ed Sheeran's successful music career and a number of business endeavors, including a share in Premier League team Ipswich Town FC, have contributed to his substantial wealth

One of the wealthiest musicians in England, Ed Sheeran's net worth begs the question of how much money he has and where it all comes from.

Over the past ten years, the singer-songwriter has made a fortune from his music. Although he isn't even close to being the richest person in the world or making as much as Selena Gomez, Taylor Swift, or Rihanna, he is still extremely wealthy by any measure.

The Sunday Times Rich List estimates Ed Sheeran's net worth to be 370 million. He joins actor Daniel Radcliffe and golfer Rory McIlroy as one of the wealthiest people in Britain under 40.

We examine how he made his millions and how he got to where he is now.

The beginning of Ed Sheeran's musical career.

Ed Sheeran was raised in Framlingham, Suffolk, after being born in Halifax, West Yorkshire, on February 17, 1991. He started playing music in local bars and clubs at an early age in order to make money.

After Sheeran's debut album +, which peaked at number one on the UK Albums Chart and earned him the Brit Award for Best British Male Solo Artist and British Breakthrough Act, was released in 2011, his career took off. The song "Thinking Out Loud" from his second studio album, X, earned him two Grammy Awards and became the second-bestselling album globally.

His third album was released in 2017, and its two singles, "Shape of You" and "Castle on the Hill," broke records by debuting at the top two in numerous countries.

With more than 90 million monthly listeners, Sheeran is currently the third most popular artist on Spotify and one of the best-selling musicians in the world. In September 2025, his eighth studio album, Play, is scheduled for release.

Although Ed Sheeran is most known for his own songs, not many people are aware that he has contributed to the compositions of One Direction, Rita Ora, Justin Bieber, and Eminem.

Bridget Jones's Baby and Game of Thrones are just two of the TV series and films in which the celebrity has starred.

The cultural impact of Ed Sheeran.

Ed Sheeran has become one of the most influential people in the music industry thanks to his thriving career, but his artistic endeavors are only one aspect of the whole.

Like most musicians, Sheeran also earns money from his sometimes very profitable tours.

According to Forbes, 8.9 million tickets were sold on six continents, generating over £775 million for the Divide tour. It became one of the highest-grossing tours ever, ranking alongside Coldplay's Music of the Spheres World Tour and Taylor Swift's The Eras Tour.

At the moment, the artist is in the middle of his += Tour, which is also known as The Mathematics Tour. With 164 shows planned, it began on April 23, 2022, and is scheduled to conclude on September 8, 2025.

It made over £268 million (211 million) in just 54 shows, making it the seventh highest-grossing tour of 2023, according to Pollstar.

In addition to his songs, music, and tours, Sheeran has a record deal with Warner Music Group through his label, Gingerbread Man Records.

He named his bar in Notting Hill Bertie Blossoms after his wife, Cherry Seaborn.

Sheeran, who has a tattoo of Heinz Tomato Ketchup on his arm and has been a lifelong fan of the product, starred in an advertisement for the product in 2019.

In addition, he owns almost 30 properties in London. Sheeran most recently made what is believed to be his first commercial real estate investment, paying 8.25 million for a posh office block in Soho. The singer-songwriter also owns an estate worth £37 million in Suffolk and a villa in Umbria, Italy.

Last year, Sheeran's hometown football team, Ipswich Town FC, announced that he had purchased a minority 14% stake in the Premier League team. The Mathematics Tour logo was displayed on the front of the team's third uniform for the 202425 campaign, while Ed Sheeran x Ipswich Town was featured inside the neck.
