Ed Sheeran’s two scheduled shows at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts, for Friday night, September 25, and Saturday night, September 26, 2026, have been canceled. Organizers cited a severe nor'easter moving through New England as the reason for the decision.
The cancellation was announced early on Friday as meteorological reports indicated the storm would bring heavy rain, strong winds, and low visibility to the region. Gillette Stadium officials confirmed that both performances would not take place, and that the venue would remain closed to the public for the remainder of the weekend.
The nor'easter has affected a broad swath of New England, prompting the postponement or cancellation of numerous outdoor events, including concerts, festivals, and sporting competitions. Municipal authorities in neighboring states reported similar disruptions, and transportation services have warned of delayed travel. The widespread impact underscores the storm’s intensity as it moves along the Atlantic seaboard.
Ticket holders for the Ed Sheeran concerts have been advised to monitor communications from the promoter for information on refunds or possible rescheduling. The stadium’s website and social media channels are expected to provide updates as the weather situation evolves. No alternative dates have been announced at this time.
Forecasters expect the nor'easter to move inland later Saturday, bringing additional precipitation to interior regions. Residents in the Boston metropolitan area have been urged to secure property and limit travel until conditions improve. The cancellation of the high‑profile shows reflects the broader precautionary measures being taken across the state.
