If you were hoping to wear your favourite shorts or sundress to Ed Sheeran's concert at Roundhay Park in Leeds this weekend, then think again. Heavy rain and strong winds are predicted, which means that it's potentially going to be a complete washout. If you want to get the best view, then doors open at 4pm, but that'd mean standing around in the mud for four and a half hours until Ed turns up at 8.30pm. If a bit of water isn't enough to stop you watching the 'I Don't Care' singer, then you'll be happy to know that tickets are still available at Ticketmaster. Here's everything you need to know.

Record-breaking tour
During the tour, Ed announced that he'd broken U2's record for the highest grossing tour of all time. Ed took to Instagram to thank his army of fans for their continued support and said he will 'never forget' the Divide tour.
He wrote: "Today the Divide tour broke the all-time tour record set by U2. It's now the most attended and highest grossing tour of all time.
"Thanks so much for each and every one of you who have come to a show. Twelve shows left, will never forget it x."
If you can't afford to make it to the show, you could always try and snap a selfie with celebrities like Ty Jones, an Ed Sheeran doppleganger who works in a bingo hall.

He looks so much like the singer he explained: "I have people coming over crying and shaking, as if I am actually Ed. They say 'I know you're trying to keep a low profile', and sometimes they're that worked up they can't even get a selfie in focus because their hands are shaking.
"If they're that hyped up you feel guilty letting them down by saying I'm not actually Ed."
Fingers crossed Leeds brightens up before the real Ed takes to the stage.
