Refunds Offered For Ed Sheeran’s Gillette Stadium Shows, Which May Be Canceled Due To Weather Anyway
Ed Sheeran is still facing consequences nearly two weeks after he ousted Macklemore from his tour , which then resulted in all his other tour openers and backing band dropping off in protest. The not-complicit pop singer is slated to perform tonight and tomorrow at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, MA, which is owned by Kraft Group, whose Robert Kraft urged Sheeran to cut Macklemore from his tour.…
Ed Sheeran's scheduled performances at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts this weekend have been called off due to severe weather warnings. The news was announced on Friday morning via a message from the tour promoter, Messina Touring. The nor'easter storm expected to impact the East coast was the primary reason for the cancellation.
Fans, staff, and personnel were given safety priority in making this decision. Refunds are automatically processed for those who purchased tickets through Ticketmaster. This cancellation adds to the tour's recent setbacks, including the removal of opening act Macklemore who had been performing alongside Sheeran. Macklemore had been removed following his support for Palestine during a previous performance.
Sheeran's remaining shows, including those in Philadelphia last weekend, were performed solo emphasizing unity and humanity over political themes. Sheeran expressed deep distress over the ongoing conflict in Gaza and Israel, emphasizing the tragic loss of civilian life and systemic injustice.
