Everything You Need to Know About Ed Sheeran in Philly 2023

It's one of the most anticipated concerts of the year, and it's finally here. Ed Sheeran is bringing the +-=÷x Tour or the Mathematics Tour to Philadelphia's Lincoln Financial Field on Saturday, June 3, 2023.

From setlists to parking to opening acts, we put together a list of EVERYTHING you need to know ahead of the show right here:

The "show" begins at 6:00 pm. The gates to the Linc open at 4:30 pm on Saturday afternoon.

Floor seating is general admission for Ed Sheeran's Philadelphia tour. Guests with tickets for the General Admission section of the Linc must enter at South Gate, stadium officials tell us.

Yes, there are two opening acts for the show. Ed Sheeran is joined by Khalid and Dylan on the Mathametics Tour this year.

It looks like Ed Sheeran should take to the stage between 8:15 and 8:30 pm. You'll definitely want to be in your seat ready to go, so don't cut it too close in the merch or concession lines.

For his recent concerts in Atlanta and Tampa, however, Ed has definitely hit the stage no later than 8:30 pm.

Production times are always subject to change, of course.

Yes, tickets are available directly from Ticketmaster for Saturday night's concert.

Ed has a massive stage that's basically a circle in the middle of the stadium, so there won't be any bad seats in the house Saturday night.

Lot K opens at 2:00 pm.

Parking is $35 for cars and $70 for oversized vehicles. Unsure where to park? All parking lots in the stadium complex are open for the show so you'll have no problem finding a spot.

In fact, we've got a map posted for you here. Lots A-M are closest to the field.

Remember, these are CASHLESS payments only at the Linc, so you need to use your digital payment (or a credit card).

The venue will follow the NFL Clear Bag policy. Bags cannot exceed 12"x6"x12" and must be clear, per the venue's policies.

We did some digging and know more about Ed's expected setlist, but we don't wanna give any spoilers here.

So we posted the setlist on a different article on our website/app. Check that out by clicking here.

Umbrellas are NOT allowed in the venue. If rain is forecasted at all, you'll want to pack a poncho or raincoat.

More prohibited items can be found on the Linc's official website.

Small portable phone chargers are permitted, but stadium officials say they must be no larger than the size of your cell phone.

Yes, SEPTA is running extra transportation service for the concerts.

They will run eight extra Local trips on the Broad Street Line, departing from Olney Transportation Center Starting at 3:43 p.m.

On Saturday, there will also be extra late-night Regional Rail service (to get home) on the Paoli/Thorndale, Media/Wawa, Manayunk/Norristown, and West Trenton Lines. Click here to view more.

PRO-TIP: You should load funds to your SEPTA Key Card before the concert. There will be pay stations when you board the train and exit the train in the Stadium Complex.

Or you can use the Key Tix App to add funding to your key card. The lines can be quite long after a big event in the stadium complex.
