The British rock band Coldplay is considered to be one of the most successful bands of all time, with more than 300 awards to its name, over nine billion streams of its songs – and more than 100 million albums sold across the world.
Coldplay is returning to India after nine years in January 2025 as the Grammy-winning band will bring their Music Of The Spheres World Tour to Mumbai. The band is holding two major shows that are scheduled for January 18 and 19, 2025, at the D.Y. Patil Sports Stadium.
The British rock band added a third show later to the Mumbai leg citing “phenomenal demand”, hours after fans expressed disappointment over long virtual queues on the online ticket platform BookMyShow.
