“Got [Chris Hemsworth] to learn to play drums for my stadium show,” Sheeran shared in an Instagram caption shortly after the concert on Saturday.

Hemsworth performed the drum part for Sheeran’s “Thinking Out Loud” on stage. Sheeran revealed that Hemsworth had reached out to him about the performance.

“Basically what’s happening is Chris emailed me last December saying he’s doing a documentary on cognitive health and the benefits of learning an instrument,” Sheeran explained in the video posted on Instagram. “And he came to visit me, and he has learned drums and he’s coming on stage in front of 70,000 [people].”

“I’ve been thinking about it a lot,” Hemsworth added. “It’ll be nice to put this to bed.”

The “Limitless With Chris Hemsworth” Season 2 synopsis reads: “Chris physically and mentally delves into a series of universal issues that people across the world face daily: pain, fear, cognitive impairment and social connection. Guided by world-renowned experts, mentors and spiritual leaders, he will travel to the ends of the Earth to uncover the latest scientific thinking and unlock some of the world’s best-kept secrets to living a better life.”

Sheeran’s tour will continue with upcoming performances in Bulgaria, Cyprus, and Brazil in 2024, followed by additional international dates next year.
