The arena has been shut since the bomb attack at Ariana Grande's concert there on 22 May and will not reopen in time.
The arena nights were announced last October as the last two of the European run, and the band have apologised to fans for the trouble. A ticket for either night can be swapped for the cricket-ground show or refunded in full.
The new venue is the ground where Grande's One Love Manchester benefit for the victims of the attack was held on 4 June.
