Ed Sheeran at Gillette Stadium: Sept 25–26, 2026 Tickets & Guide

This is the first stop of the final stretch of the North American LOOP Tour, and it is only days away. If you have been waiting to see whether prices would drop, this is the moment to decide. Below is what we know as of Sept 23, 2026: what seats cost, where to sit for an in-the-round stage, how to get to Foxborough, and what time you will actually be heading home.

Is it too late to buy Ed Sheeran Gillette Stadium tickets?

No. Both nights are still on sale, and last-minute buying is realistic for these shows. US demand on this leg has been softer than on the Mathematics Tour, with reports in September 2026 of thousands of unsold stadium seats and cheap resale listings. That means sellers with tickets for Sept 25–26 have a few days left to find a buyer, and some will cut prices as the date gets close.

A few practical points for buying this late. Tickets for this tour are mobile only, so allow time for the transfer to land in your app before you leave home. Official sales through Ticketmaster are final, with a 6-ticket limit per show. On resale, compare the same section across both nights: Friday and Saturday often price differently, and the cheaper night is not always the one you expect.

How much are Ed Sheeran tickets at Gillette Stadium?

Face value on this leg has been modest by stadium standards: tiers of $39.50, $69.50, $89.50 and $119.50 were seen at the US on-sale for one show, with a wide range of categories overall. On the resale side, the cheapest US stadium seats were reported at roughly $56–$65 including fees in September 2026. Floor and lower-bowl seats cost more, and prices move every day.

TicketNetwork is a resale marketplace, so prices there can be above face value, although on a soft market they are often close to it or below. For the bigger picture see our ticket prices guide and cheap tickets tips.

Where are the best seats at Gillette Stadium for Ed Sheeran?

The LOOP Tour uses a 360° in-the-round style rotating main stage in the middle of the field, plus a small circular B-stage out in the crowd. That changes the usual rules. There is no bad “side” of the stage, and the end-zone seats that are poor for a normal stadium show become far more usable because Ed turns to face every part of the stadium.

• Floor near the main stage: the closest you can get, but it is a flat field, so shorter fans may see mostly screens and shoulders.
• Lower bowl, any side: our pick for most people. You are raised above the floor with a clear view of the round stage, and often close to the B-stage.
• Upper level: the budget choice. Distant, but the round stage keeps sightlines clean and the loop-pedal sound carries well.

Gillette Stadium is open-air, and late-September evenings in Massachusetts can turn cool, so bring a layer. More on layouts on our best seats guide.

How do you get to Gillette Stadium and where do you park?

Gillette Stadium sits on Route 1 in Foxborough, roughly between Boston and Providence, next to the Patriot Place shopping and dining complex. Most fans drive, and the stadium has large on-site parking lots. Route 1 is notorious for traffic on big event days, so arriving early is the single best thing you can do. Patriot Place is a handy spot for food before the doors open.

The MBTA has run commuter rail event trains to Foxboro for some major events; check the MBTA and stadium sites for this concert before relying on it. Rideshare is possible, but expect surge pricing and long pickup queues after the show.

Most NFL stadiums enforce a clear-bag policy (small clear bags plus a small clutch), and concerts usually follow the same rules. Check the venue site for the current policy before you pack, because it is the one thing that reliably sends people back to their cars.

What time does Ed Sheeran start and end at Gillette Stadium?

Both nights are listed for an 8:00 PM start. Ed’s set is about two hours, so as a rough estimate you should expect to be leaving the stadium around 10pm or a little after, and later still once you factor in the car park. Doors open earlier than the listed start; check your ticket for the exact gate time.

Who is opening for Ed Sheeran at Gillette Stadium?

Opening acts for the remaining US dates changed in September 2026 and none had been confirmed as of Sept 23 - check your ticket/app for timings. Earlier North American shows this summer featured artists such as Myles Smith, Mark Ambor and Sigrid, but don’t plan your evening around a support slot. Our support acts page is updated when anything is announced.

What songs will Ed Sheeran play in Foxborough?

The LOOP Tour is Ed at his most stripped back: one man, an acoustic guitar and a loop pedal, building every song live in front of you. A typical night runs about two hours and roughly 28 songs. Recent sets have opened with “You Need Me, I Don’t Need You”, “Sapphire” and “Castle on the Hill”, run through “The A Team”, “Shivers” and “Eyes Closed”, then moved to the small B-stage for a fan-request slot where the crowd texts in picks (think “Lego House” or “Tenerife Sea”). The home stretch usually has “Thinking Out Loud”, “Perfect”, “Photograph” and “Bloodstream”, with an encore of “Shape of You”, “Azizam” and “Bad Habits”. Sets vary night to night; the full typical running order is on our LOOP Tour setlist page.

With two nights in the same building, the B-stage fan-request slot is the part most likely to differ between Friday and Saturday. Curious about the full experience? Read what to expect at a LOOP Tour show.
