Notably, Coldplay will also perform at the same venue a day before, on January 25. These shows are part of Coldplay’s ongoing Music Of The Spheres World Tour, which has been a global sensation since it began in March 2022. The tour is now the most attended by a group in history, showcasing tracks from their album “Music Of The Spheres” as well as new songs from their upcoming release, “Moon Music.”
The India leg of the band’s tour will begin at the DY Patil Sports Stadium, Mumbai, on January 18, 19 and 21, followed by the Ahmedabad shows on the 25th and 26th. Interestingly, the band has also teased a mystery guest for the upcoming shows in India, and speculations are rife that this is none other than the Oscar-winning Indian legend, AR Rahman.
The upcoming tour will mark Coldplay’s first visit to India in eight years. The Grammy-winning band previously performed in Mumbai as part of the Global Citizen Festival back in 2016.
Music Of The Spheres World Tour 2025 commenced on October 30, 2024, at the Marvel Stadium in Melbourne, Australia, and is set to conclude on August 31, 2025, with a show at the Wembley Stadium in London, the UK.
