Global superstar Ed Sheeran has performed an impromptu gig in Ipswich town centre.
Hundreds of people were left shocked as they saw Framlingham-based singer songwriter perform on the steps of the town hall in the Cornhill.
The surprise gig started at about 4pm today after Sheeran visited the town to buy a new guitar.
During the gig Sheeran sang Perfect, Castle on the Hill, Bad Habits and Shivers.
On his Instagram story, Sheeran said: "I am in Music World in Ipswich and I have just bought a guitar.
"I am going to go to Ipswich high street by the town hall and play a free gig anyone in Ipswich come on down."
One lucky 10-year-old was given the guitar by Ed Sheeran after the gig.
Arthur Baggett said: "I was just so overwhelmed with happiness when he pointed me out and said that he was going to give it to me."
Rachel Aldridge, from Screen Suffolk said the organisation were contacted two weeks ago about the performance and worked with Ipswich Borough Council to make the moment happen.
She said: “It was totally amazing, there was hardly anyone on the Cornhill, he appeared and suddenly there was a sea of people within five minutes.
“We had to keep it top secret. It was so great to see him stepping onto the steps of Ipswich Town Hall and coming back to Ipswich.”
