Conciertos de Ed Sheeran en Gillette Stadium cancelados por alerta de tormenta en medio de polémica con Macklemore

The Boston Globe informó que Ed Sheeran canceló los shows de la gira Loop programados para el 5 y 6 de septiembre de 2026 en Gillette Stadium, Foxborough, Massachusetts, tras una alerta de tormenta que obligó a los organizadores a suspender los conciertos. La cancelación se produjo después de una polémica que se prolongó durante meses y que comenzó cuando Macklemore fue retirado de los conciertos en MetLife Stadium tras corear “Free Palestine”, decisión que los dueños del estadio justificaron como necesaria para evitar declaraciones políticas.

Posteriormente, Robert Kraft y la dirección del estadio prohibieron al rapero actuar en Gillette Stadium, medida que apoyó públicamente Dave Portnoy, fundador de Barstool Sports. El conflicto provocó la concentración de alrededor de cien manifestantes pro-palestinos frente al concierto de Filadelfia en Lincoln Financial Field y llevó a varios actos de apertura a retirarse, mientras Sheeran utilizó el espectáculo del 19 de septiembre para condenar la violencia en Gaza y criticar la censura de los recintos.
