What it was like
One man, one guitar, a loop pedal, and a stadium — he records a bass line into the loop, layers a rhythm over it, and builds a full band in front of you out of nothing but his own hands and voice. There is no other major touring act in the world doing this at this scale, and Ed Sheeran brings the LOOP Tour to Petco Park in San Diego.
The whole show is built around that format, blown up to stadium size with massive screens and a stage design that puts Sheeran at the center of the crowd rather than at the far end of it. Expect hits from every era — Shape of You, Thinking Out Loud, Bad Habits, Shivers — plus deep cuts from across his catalog, and the packed-house singalongs his tours are known for. Know the words; you will want them.
Petco Park is an open-air stadium on San Diego's downtown waterfront. Doors open at 3:30 PM. It is walking distance from the Gaslamp Trolley Station with multiple parking garages and lots nearby. General admission floor and reserved seats are both available.
