Following the spectacular sellout success of the summer 2024 European leg of Coldplay’s record-breaking Music Of The Spheres World Tour, the band have announced six new shows at London’s Wembley Stadium and two at Hull’s Craven Park Stadium, for August 2025. These are the only UK/European cities where the band will perform next year.
In a world first for a stadium show, the band have also pledged to power the Wembley concerts’ production with 100% solar, wind and kinetic energy, collected at the venue and elsewhere in the UK, and delivered by a specially-designed electric battery system. In addition, one of the satellite stages at each show will be fully powered by energy generated by the audience via kinetic flooring and power bikes.
In June, the band announced that the tour has so far produced 59% less CO2e emissions than their previous stadium tour in 2016/17, exceeding their original target of a 50% reduction. They also revealed that 9 million trees have already been planted (with a further million to be planted before the end of the year).
