Ed Sheeran made his hometown of Ipswich super excited by opening a special pop-up pub called The Old Phone Inn to celebrate his new song, “Old Phone.” This wasn’t just any pub—it was a cozy, fun place that felt like stepping back in time, and it was only open for a short while!
The pub was decorated to look old-fashioned, with things like old phones on the walls and a music player that played Ed’s songs and other classics. The song “Old Phone” is about missing the days when people talked on regular phones instead of using screens all the time. Ed helped design the pub to match that idea, making it a warm and happy spot for fans.
Only a few lucky people got to visit because it was a special event. They enjoyed cool drinks with fun names like “Landline Lager” and ate tasty snacks. The best part? Ed showed up himself! He wore a simple shirt and jeans, grabbed his guitar, and sang “Old Phone” for the first time ever, plus other songs like “Perfect.” Everyone felt like they were at a small concert with a friend.
Ed told the crowd, “This song means a lot to me. It’s about real talks with people, like on an old phone, without all the distractions.” His words made everyone feel warm and happy.
Ed loves doing surprises for his fans, like singing on the street or visiting people unexpectedly. Making a pub in Ipswich was his way of saying thank you to the place where he grew up. He’s always helping his hometown, like supporting shops or building a music studio nearby.
Fans loved it! One person named Michelle said, “It felt like a big hug from Ed. The pub was so cool, and he was just there singing for us!” The internet went crazy with videos and pictures of the pub, and people everywhere wished they could visit.
The song “Old Phone” is about remembering good times and real friendships. Ed’s pub was like a big reminder to put down our screens and talk to each other. It might even pop up in other cities someday, so fans far away could join the fun.
You can listen to “Old Phone” on music apps now, and it’s already a hit. Ed Sheeran’s new song and his awesome pub show he’s still all about music, memories, and making people smile.
