Coldplay enthusiasts are excitedly anticipating the chance to snag tickets for the newly announced UK shows in 2025. Earlier this month, the British band shared that their popular world tour will be visiting two venues in the UK next summer.
Several concerts for 2025 have been confirmed, featuring Hull for the first time and the legendary Wembley Stadium in London. When Coldplay shared the news, they emphasised that these are the only cities in the UK and Europe where they will be performing.
As a reminder, her is a list of the confirmed dates with venues for the Music Of The Spheres tour in the UK:
Fans will be scrambling to get their hands on tickets when they become available this week from platforms like Ticketmaster. A selection of presale tickets will be up for grabs on Thursday, September 26, ahead of the general sale on Friday, September 27.
Coldplay's Music of the Spheres World Tour is scheduled to end in the UK on August 31, at Wembley Stadium in London. The stage show has been ongoing since 2022 and has been performed in the United States, Europe, Asia and Australia to name a few
Questions about ticket prices and when presale codes will be released are on every fan's mind. So, for those concert-goers trying to get prepared, here are a few things worth knowing, according to the Mirror.
When will I be able to access the presale?
Fans who secured a spot in the presale should have received an email with details about how things are expected to work on the day. It stated: "You will be emailed with a link to the ticket provider and an early access code from 5pm BST on Wednesday, 25th September.
"The presale will take place on Thursday, September 26 at 9am BST. Tickets will be available on a first come, first served basis to those with access codes, and we expect demand to be high.
"Please note that having an access code does not guarantee a ticket. You MUST have a Ticketmaster account using [the email address used to sign up for presale] and be signed in to access the presale.
"If you don't have a Ticket master account using this email address, please create one now ahead of the presale. Make sure your details, especially your mobile number, are up to date, as a verification code will be sent to your phone when entering the presale queue."
The email further clarifies that early access fans will be allowed to purchase a maximum of six Wembley tickets each, while Hull fans will be restricted to four tickets each. Information regarding accessible tickets can be found on Ticketmaster's website by selecting the desired venue/date.
Can I still get a presale code?
At the time of reporting, the deadline for getting access has already gone. The band announced in their UK tour statement that those who pre-ordered the album from the Coldplay UK or EU Stores would automatically qualify for the presale.
Coldplay fans had until 11.59pm on Tuesday, September 24, to complete the purchase. Those who bought the album before the announcement were informed they had automatically been included in the presale.
Do I get priority for tickets living nearby?
For some fans, this is indeed the case. Referred to as a 'Postcode Presale', it was confirmed that half of the tickets for the Hull shows will be allocated to local fans who can prove they have a HU, YO, DN or LN postcode.
There will be no postcode presale for the events at London's Wembley Stadium. To secure your tickets, you'll need to input the postcode of your home address when purchasing.
The postcode you enter must match up with the billing address postcode on your Ticketmaster account. If there's an error, your tickets could be cancelled.
How much are the tickets likely to cost?
While the exact ticket prices have yet to be confirmed, they're anticipated to be in line with previous shows. Based on their world tour prices, Coldplay fans should prepare to pay between £70-100 per ticket.
It's been revealed that 10% of the band's earnings from the Wembley and Hull concerts will go to the Music Venue Trust, supporting their crucial work with grassroots UK venues and emerging artists. This is in addition to their eco-friendly commitment to power the Wembley shows entirely by solar, wind and kinetic energy.
For ticket information, the band has provided a link to Live Nation. There's also a dedicated page on Ticketmaster where you can purchase tickets too.
When can I buy cheaper 'Infinity Tickets'?
A limited quantity of Infinity Tickets are made available for every Coldplay concert, offering fans the opportunity to experience the Music Of The Spheres World Tour at a significantly reduced price. According to the Coldplay website: "They cost the equivalent of £20 per ticket and must be purchased in pairs".
Infinity Tickets are randomly assigned throughout the venue - you could find yourself in the back row, on the floor or in the prime seat. The risk of not knowing your exact location is part of the trade-off for these less expensive tickets.
A restricted quantity of these tickets will be released for the shows via Ticketmaster at 12pm on Friday, November 22. You can register to receive a notification as soon as they become available in your selected country here.
