Two days after Justin Bieber pulled out of the festival in Cofton Park, organizers announced the news that Ed Sheeran is going to replace the Canadian singer and songwriter as a main act at the 2015 Fusion Festival in Birmingham.

It has been said that the English singer-songwriter and musician Ed Sheeran, personally contacted the organizers of the festival and offered to step in at the last minute.

On August 28, the Thinking Out Loud singer, Ed Sheeran will play a full 90 minute set on the first day of the three day festival.

Even though Justin Bieber  has been nominated for an MTV VMA in the US on August 30, the popstar said that because of "unforeseen circumstances" he could no longer perform at the festival.

The Beliebers or the Justin Bieber's die hard fans have been demanding refunds.
