Ed Sheeran's scheduled concerts at Gillette Stadium on Friday and Saturday were canceled due to severe weather, according to a report by Anadolu Agency citing TMZ.
The cancellations came amid separate controversy surrounding the tour after Macklemore's removal from the lineup following pro-Palestine remarks, the report noted, though severe weather was cited as the reason for calling off the two shows.
Concert cancellations tied to severe weather are not uncommon for large outdoor stadium shows, where safety concerns for performers, crew and large crowds can outweigh the logistical costs of postponement. It remains unclear from the available reporting whether the shows will be rescheduled.
Representatives for Sheeran and the venue had not issued additional public comment beyond what was reported, according to the available account.
