Overview
- The band launched the residency on August 22, with Chris Martin thanking fans for “letting us come home” and saying these would be their last London shows for several years.
- Opening night highlights included a fan proposal, an onstage invite for a man in an elephant onesie during Paradise, an 18-year-old guest singing Trouble, and a guest turn from Elyanna on We Pray.
- Organisers say the Wembley concerts use 100% renewable energy with no generators, drawing from the band’s Higher Power Farm project feeding solar power into the grid.
- Coverage differs on the band’s support for Music Venue Trust, with reports citing either a £1-per-ticket pledge for all Wembley dates or a 10% share of proceeds from the Hull and London shows.
- The 10-date stand sets a new Wembley benchmark, with around 90,000 attendees per night and nearly 1 million expected overall, as part of a tour reported to have sold over 12 million tickets and to pause until 2027.
