Who is Ed Sheeran's support act in Belfast?

Maisie Peters will be supporting Ed at his two Belfast performances.

She is an English singer-songwriter who, after gaining popularity on YouTube, signed with Atlantic Records.

After it was announced she would be supporting Ed on the Mathematics tour she shared her excitement on social media alongside the tour poster.

She said: "I can’t believe this poster is real but it is I’m going on tour with @teddysphotos all summer.

"Playing venues like these with someone like Ed is something just so totally beyond the realm of anything you ever think possible when you’re 14 and pick up a guitar and learn Lego House on ultimate guitar, and I don’t think I’ll really ever get over it.

"It was an honour to be asked and I promise I will be practising and rehearsing and writing to make it the best possible show I can give because this is such a once in one million lifetimes experience like. Wembley stadium!!!! 5 times!!!!! :o

"See u out there for potentially the most feral summer of our lives".
