Chris Martin and Coldplay are going back to the start. The group announced yet another extension of their record-setting Music of the Spheres tour on Tuesday morning (Oct. 8) via a set of summer 2025 North American shows that will kick off more than three years after the tour first touched down in the U.S. and Canada on May 6, 2022; it officially launched in San José, Costa Rica in March 2022.
The 10 newly added gigs will include Coldplay’s debut stadium performances in Stanford, CA, El Paso, Denver, Las Vegas, Nashville and Madison, WI; in fact, the latter gig will mark the first music event at the University of Wisconsin-Madison’s Camp Randall Stadium since a 1997 Rolling Stones gig. The band will also have the honor of being one of the first bands to perform at Toronto’s newest venue, the 50,000-capacity Rogers Stadium, set to open in June 2025.

After launching on May 31 at Stanford Stadium, the tour will hit Las Vegas, Denver, El Paso, Toronto, Foxborough, MA, Madison and Nashville before winding down on July 26 at Miami’s Hard Rock Stadium.
Fans can sign up for an artist presale now through Thursday (Oct. 10) at 10 a.m. ET here; artist presale begins on Friday (Oct. 11) at 9 a.m. local time, with a general onsale launching on Friday at noon local time here. The group will also offer up a limited number of affordable $20 Infinity tickets for every show at noon local time on Nov. 22, with a two-ticket limit per purchaser.
According to a release, since the tour’s launch it has sold more than 10 million tickets across shows in Europe, North America, Latin America, Asia, Australia and New Zealand, making it the most-attended tour by a group of all time. Support acts for the 2025 shows have not yet been announced.
In the meantime, the Spheres tour will visit Australia again in late October and early November before moving on to Abu Dhabi and Mumbai, India in January 2025, followed by Hong Kong and Seoul in April. The band also announced an update on their extensive sustainability initiatives on the tour, which they said has produced 59% less CO2e emissions on a show-by-show basis to date than their 2016-2017 stadium tour, exceeding their original target of 50% reductions. They also noted that more than nine million trees have been planted around the world as part of the tour’s green efforts, with another million to be planted before year’s end.
Last week, Coldplay released its 10th album, Moon Music, which features the singles “We Pray” and “feelslikefallinginlove.”
