Ed Sheeran's film Jumpers For Goalposts has its world premiere on Thursday October 22.

Australian details are not confirmed at this stage. Updates will be posted at www.EdSheeranMovie.com.

Jumpers For Goalposts was shot mainly at three shows in July at London’s Wembley Stadium before 240,000 fans. It includes The A Team, Sing and Thinking Out Loud, as well as a surprise duet from Sir Elton John with Don’t Go Breaking My Heart, his 1976 hit with Kiki Dee. The movie also includes his story, life on the road and a reflection of his massive success by Sheeran and those closest to him.

In the past five years, Sheeran’s rise has been fast, breaking tour attendance records in Australia and winning awards around the world. The debut + album sold 1 million in the world. Follow up x debuted at #1 in 14 countries, sold 10 million globally so far and was the biggest selling album in the UK last year.
