Overview

  • The band launched the run with Chris Martin thanking fans for “letting us come home at last” and noting these will be their last London shows for a number of years.
  • Opening night featured onstage fan moments, including inviting a man in an elephant onesie for Paradise and honoring an 18-year-old fan with autism by playing Trouble.
  • Palestinian-Chilean singer Elyanna joined for We Pray, and Martin greeted a Palestine supporter with the message, “Welcome from Palestine, always.”
  • Organisers say the Music of the Spheres tour has sold more than 12 million tickets since 2022, making it the highest attended tour to date.
  • Wembley shows use 100% renewable energy with no generators via the band’s Higher Power Farm project, and 10% of proceeds from Wembley and Hull go to Music Venue Trust.
