Coldplay announce new UK and European shows for 2023

The lengthy ‘music of the spheres’ world tour continues next may.

By Tom Skinner

Coldplay have announced three new UK shows for 2023 as part of their extensive ‘Music Of The Spheres’ world tour. Last night (August 21) saw the band wrap up a six-night run of London concerts at Wembley Stadium ahead of two scheduled dates in Glasgow this week (August 23, 24). A series of South American gigs will take place between September 10 and November 8. Today (August 22), it’s been confirmed that Coldplay will head back out on the road for further UK and European shows between May and July, 2023. This additional leg is due to begin in Coimbra, Portugal on May 17. Following a two-night billing in Barcelona, Spain (May 24, 25), Chris Martin and co. will return to these shores to play a pair of concerts at the Etihad Stadium in Manchester (May 31, June 1). They’ll then take to the stage at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff, Wales on June 6. Tickets go on general sale at 10am local time this Thursday (August 25) –  you’ll be able to purchase yours from here .

Coldplay’s 2023 UK tour dates are as follows:

May 2023 31 – Manchester, Etihad Stadium

June 2023 1 – Manchester, Etihad Stadium 6 – Cardiff, Principality Stadium

After those gigs, Coldplay are set to visit Naples, Milan, Zurich, Copenhagen, Gothenburg and Amsterdam throughout late June and into July. You can find the group’s full live itinerary for this year and next here . The band have shared an official trailer for their forthcoming UK and European tour – check it out above. This past weekend, Coldplay teamed up with Alan Partridge at their penultimate London concert to cover ABBA ‘s ‘Knowing Me, Knowing You’ and Kate Bush ‘s ‘Running Up That Hill (A Deal with God)’ . Steve Coogan’s much-loved character donned a jacket emblazoned with  Snow Patrol ‘s band logo. “If you’re running up a hill, make sure you wear the correct footwear. Goodnight!” Partridge said to the Wembley crowd. Other guests to have joined Coldplay on-stage in the capital recently include Craig David ,  Natalie Imbruglia  and All Saints’  Shaznay Lewis . In a four-star review of Coldplay’s latest album, last year’s  Music of the Spheres ,  Rolling Stone UK described the project as “spellbinding” . “It’s the sound of a supremely confident band, so aware their music now matches the euphoria of, say, a stadium triumph that ‘Infinity Sign’ slyly reworks rudimentary football chant “Olé Olé Olé” into something quite beautiful. It shouldn’t work but it does: epitomising Coldplay’s breathless ascent ever higher. It’s just a thrill to be along for the ride.”

What have Coldplay said about the Music of the Spheres tour?

Ahead of the COP26 summit last year, Coldplay stated that they wished for the Music of the Spheres tour to be one of the greenest in history as they pushed to make their event more environmentally friendly.

The band told social media platform Twitter at the time: “We’ve been planning this tour for years, and we’re super excited to play songs from across our whole time together.

“At the same time, we’re very conscious that the planet is facing a climate crisis.

“So we’ve spent the last two years consulting with environmental experts to make this tour as sustainable as possible, and, just as importantly, to harness the tour’s potential to push things forward.

“We won’t get everything right, but we’re committed to doing everything we can and sharing what we learn."

They added: “It’s a work in progress and we’re really grateful for the help we’ve had so far.

"If you’d like to come to a show and sing with us, we’re so excited to see you.”

As well as the "show battery", which has been supplied by BMW to run the show via renewable energy, there are many other ways during the concert where fans can get involved to make the event more sustainable.

At the concerts, there are kinetic floors placed in certain locations so that fans' movements can be converted into energy, and there are also electricity-generating pedal bikes so fans can actively charge the show's batteries.

These sustainable alternatives will replace the usual diesel and petrol generators, which will reduce the carbon footprint of the tour.

What We Know About the Ambani Wedding

Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s pre-wedding in March caused a stir when photos and videos of their lavish celebration circulated on social media. Here’s what we know about their July nuptials.

By Sadiba Hasan

Even in a country known for grandiose weddings, Anant Ambani, the son of India’s richest man, and Radhika Merchant’s three-day pre-wedding celebration earlier this year in India stood out.

Within hours into the opulent event — where Rihanna performed, and Mark Zuckerberg and Ivanka Trump wore sherwanis and saris — photographs and videos began to flood social media. The display of money, power and wealth from India’s most influential business family captured the attention of critics and onlookers around the world .

On March 1, more than 1,000 members of the international elite flew to Jamnagar, a city in the western Indian state of Gujarat, for the weekend festivities. Guests, which included billionaires and Bollywood superstars, were offered services like chartered flights, makeup artists, top chefs and luxurious vehicles for pickup and drop-off. A glass palace was built for the occasion, and there was a light show consisting of more than 5,000 drones.

There is speculation that the couple plan to host a second pre-wedding celebration on a cruise ship later this month.

The couple’s wedding will take place in July, but their team has kept under wraps the specifics of what will be one of the most lavish weddings of the season. Here’s what we know so far.

Anant Ambani is a son of Mukesh Ambani , the chairman of the megacompany Reliance Industries who Forbes estimates is worth $115 billion , and Nita Ambani.

Mr. Ambani, 29, runs the energy business at Reliance Industries, based in Mumbai, India. He has two older twin siblings, both of whom are also on the board of Reliance Industries. He graduated from Brown and is passionate about animal welfare and rehabilitation. The pre-wedding ceremony included a tour of Vantara, Mr. Ambani’s animal sanctuary in Jamnagar. “This was my giving back to society,” he said in a speech during the festivities.

Radhika Merchant is a daughter of Viren and Shaila Merchant. Mr. Merchant is the chief executive and vice chairman of Encore Healthcare, also headquartered in Mumbai.

Ms. Merchant, 29, is a director at her family’s health care company. She graduated from N.Y.U. and is trained in Indian classical dance.

The Love Story

Ms. Merchant told Vogue that she and Mr. Ambani met through mutual friends during a drive in 2017. “That first meeting just sparked something special between us, and it wasn’t long before we started dating,” she said.

In 2023, Mr. Ambani proposed to Ms. Merchant at the Shrinathji Temple in the northwestern Indian state of Rajasthan.

“I am 100 percent the lucky one, there is no doubt about that,” Mr. Ambani said in a speech during the pre-wedding weekend. “It feels like I met Radhika yesterday, but every day, I fall more and more in love. Like my brother-in-law says, when he used to see my sister, he had volcanoes and fountains going up in his heart. I would say I have earthquakes and tsunamis going on in my heart when I see Radhika.”

The Wedding Date

The wedding is set to take place July 10 to 12. The dates were determined by the Hindu tradition of getting married on an auspicious date based on the couples’ birth charts.

Indian weddings typically include several events, including a haldi, a ceremony that involves applying turmeric paste on the bride and groom’s body; a mehndi, a henna ritual; a sangeet, a night of music and dancing; and a wedding ceremony followed by a reception.

The Location

The wedding festivities will occur in Mumbai, where the couple live. Events will be split between the Ambani family home, called Antilia , and the Jio World Convention Centre, a popular venue in Mumbai for weddings. Receptions will be at the larger venue, whereas intimate ceremonies will take place in their home.

The Pre-Wedding

Bill Gates; Mark Zuckerberg; present and former prime ministers of Canada, Sweden, and Qatar; the king and queen of Bhutan; and Bollywood’s biggest stars, like Deepika Padukone, Shah Rukh Khan and Amitabh Bachchan, all attended the pre-wedding celebration in early March.

There was plenty of entertainment, including a performance by Rihanna on the first night. Diljit Dosanjh, the first Punjabi singer to perform at Coachella, took the stage on the second night. And to close out the weekend, Akon performed.

The celebration was a fashion spectacle, with custom looks from Versace, Dolce & Gabbana and Manish Malhotra. A 10-page dress code, which included a “jungle fever” theme for a visit to the animal sanctuary, was sent to guests in advance.

Mr. Ambani’s two older siblings also had lavish pre-wedding festivities. Hillary Clinton and John Kerry were among the attendees at Isha Ambani’s pre-wedding in 2018, which featured a performance by Beyoncé . A year later, Akash Ambani’s pre-wedding bash featured a performance by Coldplay .

Given the extravagance of Ms. Merchant and Mr. Ambani’s pre-wedding celebration, we expect lots of opulence for the couple’s wedding in July. This article will continue to be updated as more information is released.
