Ed Sheeran joins Snow Patrol on stage to close Latitude Festival

Crowds at Latitude Festival were treated with a surprise appearance from Ed Sheeran to close the weekend of music.

The world renowned Suffolk star joined Sunday headline act Snow Patrol on stage to round off the festival.

Sheeran has formed a friendship with band member Johnny McDaid over the last few years.

The Snow Patrol singer helped Framlingham-based Sheeran write hit single 'Shape of You', with McDaid embroiled in the copyright row earlier this year.

It is the second time the artists have collaborated on stage together, having previously featured on stage together in 2015.
