Court filings reviewed by Billboard show that a production company has filed a lawsuit over Sheeran’s 2023 concert in Sydney. The company alleges it played a key role in organizing and promoting the performance at Accor Stadium and claims it is owed compensation connected to the event. The legal complaint outlines disagreements over contractual terms and financial arrangements linked to the show.
Representatives for Sheeran have disputed the claims, arguing that agreements were handled through the appropriate touring entities. The filings focus on who held responsibility for specific aspects of the event’s promotion and whether payment obligations were met.
The Sydney concert was part of Sheeran’s global Mathematics Tour, which has drawn large crowds across multiple continents. What this really means is the case centers on business arrangements behind the scenes, not the performance itself.
The matter is now moving through the legal system, where the competing claims will be reviewed in court.
