Ed Sheeran forced to cancel Disneyland show, leaves fans in rain
Ed Sheeran was allegedly forced to cancel his show in Disneyland after leaving 20,000 fans drenched in the rain.
The 28-year-old Shape of You singer, posted a video apologising to concert-goers after some were left waiting in a storm from 4 pm to 9.20pm for him to come on stage.
Ed was due to perform the sold-out gig at Hong Kong Disneyland on Thursday but explained that his set time kept getting delayed.
He promised fans refunds for “wasting their time” but insisted it wasn’t his fault.
Ed said: “It literally had nothing to do with me. I’m here, all the crew are here, set up, sound checked, ready to go. And then they told us there was a lightning storm and that we’d just wait it out.”
“The later it got, they were just saying, ‘Another half-hour, another half-hour, another half-hour,’ and now they’ve just pulled the show. It’s nothing to do with me.”
“I’m so sorry that people have come out and waited in the rain and got wet for no show.”
“There will obviously be refunds, so look out for that, I’ll post information about that. But yeah, I’m very, very sorry for wasting your time.”
A forecast for the storm was issued by the Hong Kong Observatory at 5:05 p.m, according to the South China Morning Post.
