Nearly 40,000 people packed the stadium for Thursday night's gig and a similar number was expected last night.

Dunedin band Six60 opened the proceedings as the city continues to buzz with activity.

The first wave of traveling fans, which hit town for Thursday night's sell-out show is expected to total almost 70,000.

Sheeran will perform his final Australasian show in Dunedin tonight before leaving New Zealand to continue his world tour.
