If you’re contemplating securing tickets for Coldplay’s 2025 UK tour, prepare yourself for a thrilling atmosphere, a unique production and three hours of magnificent performance. As someone who had the privilege of attending their 2023 Music of the Spheres gig, I can vouch that it’s worth every penny.
Coldplay will be gracing the UK with their self-titled tour, performing an impressive ten-show run at London’s iconic Wembley Stadium. They’ll also be staging two standout shows in Hull – a location that might surprise some but was handpicked by lead singer Chris Martin.
Tickets are being snapped up at an almost record pace, with fans going to great lengths to experience live performances of ‘Yellow’, ‘Hurts Like Heaven’, and ‘A Sky Full of Stars’. Resale tickets are also experiencing a rise in demand.
Having been present myself at the inaugural Music of the Spheres gig, it’s a concert you’ll want to cross off your bucket list.
How to Get Coldplay Tickets
viagogo and resale tickets
Sites such as Viagogo and Vivid Seats allow fans to buy resale tickets from other fans. However, it is important to note that many event promoters say tickets should not be resold after initial purchase and will not be valid for admittance to gigs.
Fans attending live events with tickets acquired through resale websites are advised to double check the ticket terms and conditions at the point of sale – such as Ticketmaster or Live Nation – to ensure a smooth live event experience. Tickets could be voided if they were found to be bought second-hand. As a result, fans are buying at their own risk.
With that said, viagogo also commented: “viagogo is a regulated marketplace where fans have the guarantee.”
Tickets for Coldplay’s recently announced 2025 UK gigs hit the market a few months ago and they’ve already been snapped up.
The overwhelming demand has driven fans to turn to resale sites in a bid to secure tickets. If you’re new to the world of resale sites, these platforms list tickets originally purchased during the sale by fans who can no longer make the concert.
This gives those who missed out the first time around a chance to join the show. Here’s the breakdown:
- VIAGOGO – Buy Coldplay resale tickets here.
- VIVID SEATS – Buy Coldplay resale tickets here.
- STUBHUB – Buy Coldplay resale tickets here.
While the majority of official non-resale tickets have been purchased, a select few VIP tickets remain available via Seat Unique, a platform offering fan experiences. However, these can come with a hefty price tag.
For those seeking regular tickets, some are still up for grabs through the tour’s official retailers.
What to anticipate in a Coldplay crowd
Listening to hits from ‘A Rush of Blood to the Head’ and ‘Parachutes’ is something many fans could only fantasise about, but Chris Martin, Jonny Buckland, Will Champion and Guy Berryman deliver a performance that surpasses excellent vocals, drum, bass and guitar.
Every beat and lyric of Coldplay’s concerts are accompanied by bursts of flame, light-up stands triggered by wristbands’ timing, and parts of the show powered by renewable energy. This was demonstrated in 2023 when fans helped power the stage by jumping in specific sections, reports the Mirror.
If their previous UK gigs are anything to go by, fans will receive a battery-powered wristband upon entry, contributing to powering the show. In hits like ‘Yellow’ and ‘A Sky Full of Stars’, these wristbands create an atmosphere as hues of yellow and sparkling white take over.
It’s an awe-inspiring spectacle, and since I became part of the audience, no other gig has compared. Their performances became an internet sensation for all the right reasons.
Those fortunate enough to have 2025 tickets will likely enjoy their new 2024 chart-toppers ‘Feels Like I’m Falling in Love’ and ‘We Pray’.
