COLDPLAY ANNOUNCE  2025 WEMBLEY & HULL DATES

Following the spectacular sellout success of the summer 2024 European leg of Coldplay’s record-breaking Music Of The Spheres World Tour, the band have announced six new shows at London’s Wembley Stadium and two at Hull’s Craven Park Stadium, for August 2025. These are the only UK/European cities where the band will perform next year. 

Fans can get exclusive first access to tickets by ordering the band’s upcoming new album, Moon Music (landing October 4) from the official Coldplay UK or EU Stores - head HERE for more info and to purchase, before 11.59pm BST on Tuesday, September 24. All those who have already pre-ordered the album from the Coldplay UK or EU Store will automatically be eligible for the presale, which begins on Thursday, September 26 at 9am BST. 

Fifty percent of the tickets for the Hull shows - the band’s first ever concerts in the city - will go to local fans (with HU, YO, DN or LN postcodes), via Ticketmaster on Thursday, September 26 at 6pm BST.

10% OF BAND’S PROCEEDS TO MUSIC VENUE TRUST 

 

On Sunday evening, the band placed a poster in the window of the Dublin Castle in Camden, London - the scene of the first ever Coldplay show, in February 1998  - revealing that 10% of the band’s proceeds from the Wembley and Hull shows will be donated to Music Venue Trust. This will help fund the Trust’s vital work supporting UK Grassroots Music Venues and upcoming artists.

Mark Davyd, CEO Music Venue Trust said: “Coldplay are the perfect example of a UK band who came through the grassroots circuit on their way to worldwide stadium-filling success. It's fantastic to see them celebrating their own pathway to Wembley by giving back to the grassroots music venues that supported them and recognising the artists and promoters that are struggling more than ever to build their own careers. Through our partnership with Save Our Scene - who introduced us to Coldplay last year - this money will go directly into work that ensures communities right across the country will continue to have access to great live music on their doorstep. The band’s support really will stop venues closing, make tours happen and bring the joy of live music to thousands of people. After months of discussing Coldplay’s potential support around these UK shows with them, we’re so happy and grateful that the news is finally out there!”

 

 SHOWS 100% POWERED BY SOLAR, WIND & KINETIC ENERGY

 

In a world first for a stadium show, the band have also pledged to power the Wembley concerts’ production with 100% solar, wind and kinetic energy, collected at the venue and elsewhere in the UK, and delivered by a specially-designed electric battery system. In addition, one of the satellite stages at each show will be fully powered by energy generated by the audience via kinetic flooring and power bikes.

In June, the band announced that the tour has so far produced 59% less CO2e emissions than their previous stadium tour in 2016/17, exceeding their original target of a 50% reduction. They also revealed that 9 million trees have already been planted (with a further million to be planted before the end of the year).

Coldplay will make a limited number of Infinity Tickets available for the shows via Ticketmaster at 12pm on Friday, November 22. Infinity Tickets are released for every Coldplay show to make the Music Of The Spheres World Tour accessible to fans for an affordable price. As always, they will cost £20 per ticket. They are restricted to a maximum of two tickets per purchaser, and must be bought in pairs - which will be located next to each other, anywhere in the venue.

Since the first Music Of The Spheres World Tour date in March 2022, the band have sold over 10 million tickets making it the biggest tour by a group of all-time. The tour has also received rave reviews from fans and critics alike, picking up accolades including Favorite Touring Artist at the 2022 AMAs and Tour of The Year at the 2023 iHeartRadio Awards.

The band’s upcoming new album, Moon Music, lands on October 4, 2024. The album will set new standards for sustainability, with each LP made from 100% recycled plastic bottles (nine per record). It is available to pre-order now on EcoCD, EcoRecord LP and digital. Current single WE PRAY - with Little Simz, Burna Boy, Elyanna and TINI - is the iTunes chart-topping follow-up to June’s double MTV VMAs-nominated single feelslikeimfallinginlove, which reached Number 1 on both the UK’s airplay chart and the Official Big Top 40.

DHL is the Official Logistics Partner of the Music Of The Spheres World Tour, supporting the band in their mission to cut the tour’s direct emissions by 50%.
