Event summary

Highlights

  • Ed Sheeran concert
  • Protests outside Lincoln Financial Field
  • Controversy over Macklemore's removal
This concert is part of Ed Sheeran's "The Loop" tour. Protests are anticipated outside Lincoln Financial Field, organized by groups such as the Philly Palestine Coalition, who plan to rally before the show to highlight issues of free speech and the conflict in Gaza.

The controversy stems from the removal of support act Macklemore from the tour after he made pro-Palestine comments during a previous show. Following Macklemore's departure, several other artists, including Aaron Rowe, Finneas, Lukas Graham, and Sheeran's backing band Beoga, also withdrew from remaining tour dates in solidarity. Sheeran has stated that the decision to remove Macklemore was made by promoters and stadium management, not by him, and that he holds personal views on the conflict but chooses not to speak publicly about them. Tickets for the Philadelphia concert are available, starting from approximately $76.
