Anthony Byrne, 22, from Carlow, told the Irish Mirror he’s been looking forward to it for months.
He said: “I can’t wait. I’ve been a massive fan of Ed’s since day one. I went to see him in Croke Park and it was one of the best nights of my life.
“My girlfriend Laura is a big fan too – I surprised her with tickets for her birthday.”
Sheeran also plays Phoenix Park tomorrow and Saturday.
IT was a night to remember for thousands of Ed Sheeran fans in Dublin last night.
