The 32-year-old faced unexpected obstacles in arranging his show at Allegiant Stadium near the Strip. Taking to his page, he expressed disbelief, stating, “I can’t believe I’m typing this, but there were some challenges when loading our vegas show. It was impossible to continue the show. I am sorry.”
The “Thinking Out Loud” singer expressed his regret for the inconvenience caused to his fans who had traveled to attend the concert. He then gave a new date, “Saturday, October 28,” adding, “and all tickets purchased will be valid for that date. I’m so, so sorry x.”
In response to his announcement, his dedicated fans rallied around him, offering their support and understanding. One highlighted the empathy shared among Sheeran’s fans, stating, “Real fans understand that not everything is in our control.”
Another chimed in, urging fellow devotees to show “patience and kindness” because “no man puts his heart on stage more than this man!!!!” Many fans appreciated the Grammy Award winner’s commitment to finding a solution, as a third insisted, “At least it’s rescheduled. Most artists would just cancel, fire him and pay back.”
At the same time, another enthusiastic concertgoer thanked Sheeran for the “head” and reassured him, writing, “GOING TO YOUR SHOW TONIGHT. CU October 27th! ????❤️????.”

In a subsequent post on Sunday, the “Shape of You” artist shared screenshots of news reports and personal updates for his fans. The report revealed a worrying “flooring problem” at the venue, where rubber tiles had come off, causing two tall towers to slip a foot each overnight. In the caption, he wrote:
“A little more context about yesterday’s cancellation. It’s a safety issue, and we’re really trying to do our best to make the show a success but I’m not going to risk my fans’ safety for anything.”
While acknowledging that the matter was out of his control, he expressed deep regret and took full responsibility for everyone removed from the cancellation. The songwriter assured fans that refunds were available “at the time of purchase” and promised that the rescheduled show would be “special”.
He empathized with people’s efforts to attend the Vegas show and apologized for the delay in communication. He further explained, “We really thought the show would go on till the last minute but it couldn’t be done due to security reasons. Sorry again to everyone affected, and hope to see you in October x.”
‘Perfect’ Singer Dispels Super Bowl Performance Speculation

The “Game of Thrones” guest star lived up to fans’ Super Bowl hopes, setting the record straight in a chat with Andy Cohen on “Andy Cohen’s Deep & Shallow Podcast on SiriusXM.”
As reported by The Blast, the conversation took place before her performance in New York, where the “Modern Love” guest star discussed the potential of brightening up the iconic sporting event.
When asked about the Super Bowl, Sheeran revealed past discussions about possibly joining British act Coldplay to perform “Thinking Out Loud” when they sponsored the event in 2016.
The record producer mentioned to the host that he was open to a headlining act but didn’t find it interesting to be the main act. He humbly admits:
“I don’t think anyone wants to see me do the Super Bowl either. I think the only way I’m going to do that is if I join other people.”
The father of two gave additional reasons for his reservations, citing his belief that it was an “American thing”, adding, “I have no pizazz.” Sheeran emphasized that his typical performance relies heavily on his loop pedal, which would not meet the NFL’s performance requirements.
He contrasted his style with the elaborate productions of artists like Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, and The Weeknd, stating, “All these great entertainers, I’m not like that. I won’t have dancers on stage. I won’t have fireworks and blah blah, I can’t; that’s not me.”
