Prior to the announcement of Coldplay’s 10 concerts in English territory, the band had planned 6 shows at the stadium home to the England football team. However, the high demand for tickets to see the group “caused” the addition of 4 more shows during the same season.
Coldplay’s 10 dates will begin on August 22, 2025, to finally close this series of shows, as well as the tour itself, on September 8 of the same year. Prior to their arrival in London, the authors of hits like “Viva La Vida” will perform on two consecutive dates, in August, at Craven Park in the city of Hull.

However, and prior to the achievement achieved by Taylor Swift, it was Michael Jackson who was responsible for setting the previous record in 7 shows as part of his 1988 “Bad” tour.
