The Thinking Out Loud singer donned a disguise to party at the iconic British budget holiday resort in Minehead – and loved it so much he wants to go back
Ed Sheeran, singer and writer of global hits like Thinking Out Loud and worth an estimated £370million, has revealed that he loves a budget holiday at Butlin’s.
The singer has said one his best holidays was a trip to the iconic resort in Minehead in January as part of a stag do and that he’s eager to go back. Dressed in disguise as Roy Wood from Wizzard, Ed said he was “off my nut” and that the resort was “f***ing awesome”.
Speaking about the party, he said: “For my mate Doug’s [stag], we went to Butlin’s. It was an Eighties-themed weekender and we saw tribute bands Pearl Scam and Metal Militia.

“I dressed up as [Roy Wood from] Wizzard and I had this big beard, long white hair and sunglasses. And I was off my nut. It was great. Butlin’s goes hard. I love it. I never thought I’d go to Butlin’s. Then, when I was there, I was like, ‘I need to come here more often — this is f***ing awesome’.”
He added that he would love to see a Nineties weekender, which coincidentally will be happening this weekend, with tributes to Queen and Oasis.
Ed had a slightly different bash for his own stag do. Before getting married to his now wife, Cherry, the global star had a Wolf Of Wall Street-themed party, which involved being force-fed shots on a small plane.
“It was Wolf Of Wall Street-themed. All of my mates dressed up and they put me on a plane,” he told The 2 Johnnies podcast. “My manager got this small prop plane.
“We flew from Stansted for 20 minutes just to be like, ‘We’re on a plane’. And then it’s grim. You know when you’re being force-fed shots? It was that. But all of my mates’ stag dos have been different.
“I got married when I was 26 or 27, so it was very much that sort of stag, and then all the stags since then have got more and more calm and relaxed.”
Ed has been married to Cherry since 2019 and the pair have two daughters together, Lyra and Jupiter. The early moments of his relationship with Cherry, who he first met in school, have been recreated for the music video for his new song Camera. The song is on his album Play, which was released on 12 September.
The singer is planning to tour that album across the world and has said he is set to quit the UK for America to remain close to his family as his career continues to develop.
