The singer warned fans that secondary tickets for shows on his UK tour will not be accepted.

If a ticket is a cancelled, fans will be allowed to buy a new one at face value.

Sheeran will play three sold-out shows at Hampden Park on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

Fans heading to the gigs have been advised to be well prepared for the open-air concerts as heavy rain and thunderstorms are forecast for Glasgow.

The Met Office issued a severe weather warning for rain for the majority of today, with torrential downpours and thunder and lightning predicted for Saturday and Sunday.
