DENVER — Ed Sheeran has announced an "intimate" theater show in Denver, the night before he is scheduled to play at Empower Field at Mile High.

Sheeran announced Friday the “- Tour” (pronounced “subtract tour”) will play 14 cities across the United States.

The small-theatre tour will make a Denver stop at Paramount Theatre on Friday, Aug. 18, with support from Ben Kweller.

Sheeran will use Ticketmaster’s Verified Fan technology to help filter out buyers looking to resell tickets. Registration opens on Friday, April 28, at 10 a.m. ET and closes on Sunday, April 30, at 11:59 p.m. Fans can register online here.

The Verified Fan ticket sale officially begins Tuesday, May 2, at 10 a.m.
