FIFTY per cent of the tickets for Coldplay’s first ever concerts in Hull – at Craven Park Stadium on August 18 and 19 2025 – will go on sale to fans with HU, YO, DN and LN postcodes via Ticketmaster this evening from 6pm.
The general sale for Coldplay’s Hull shows and six nights at Wembley Stadium, London, on September 22, 23, 26, 27, 30 and 31 next year will open at 9am tomorrow morning at ticketmaster.co.uk/coldplay-tickets/artist/806431. These will be their only British/European dates in their Music Of The Spheres World Tour diary for 2025.
Last Sunday evening, Coldplay placed a poster in the window of the Dublin Castle, in Camden, London – the venue for their debut gig on February 22 1998 under the name The Coldplay, tickets £4 with flyer – to reveal that ten per cent of their proceeds from the Wembley and Hull concerts will be donated to Music Venue Trust.
This will help to fund the trust’s support of UK Grassroots Music Venues and upcoming artists. Donations also will be made to the Music Venue Trust by the concerts’ promoters (SJM Concerts, Metropolis Music and Live Nation), the band’s booking agent (WME), the two venues and the official ticket agents (Ticketmaster, See Tickets and AXS).
Mark Davyd, the Music Venue Trust’s chief executive, 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.”
In a world first for a stadium show, Coldplay have pledged to power production for the Wembley concerts with 100 per cent 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 their Music Of The Spheres World Tour has so far produced 59 per cent less CO2 emissions than their previous stadium tour in 2016/17, exceeding their original target of a 50 per cent reduction. They also revealed that nine million trees have been planted, to be followed by a further million before the end of the year.
Coldplay will make a limited number of Infinity Tickets available for the shows via Ticketmaster at 12 noon 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, and 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, Coldplay have sold more than ten million tickets, making it the biggest tour by a group of all-time.
Coldplay’s tenth studio album, Moon Music, will be released on October 4 and will set new standards for sustainability, with each LP being made from 100 cent recycled plastic bottles (nine per record). It is available to pre-order on EcoCD, EcoRecord LP and digital via ukstore.coldplay.com.
