It’s difficult to imagine a time when Coldplay weren’t around. From ‘Yellow’ and ‘Viva La Vida’ to ‘A Sky Full of Stars’, the band’s music is ubiquitous across TV ads, cheesy club remixes, primary school discos and parents’ CD collections. Their popularity is intergenerational and far-reaching – for proof, you only have to look at countless sold-out stadium shows from their current ‘Music of the Spheres’ tour.
Chris Martin and co have been on tour since 2022 and have just announced even more dates for summer 2024. Though the UK has not been blessed with more shows, the band will be coming to Ireland for the first time in seven years. The tour so far has been praised for its commitment to sustainability and ambitious colourful production. The Guardian called it 'one massive euphoric singalong' while NME praised it as 'a fantastical, feel-good bonanza that delivers on a bold promise.'
