It’ll see them perform some of their biggest hits alongside tracks from their ninth album, Music of the Spheres.
They recently had to reschedule one of their shows due to planned industrial action on the London Underground network.
The group told fans “that there will be insufficient transport for ticket holders” and “the event cannot be licensed for that day”, so the show on 19 August will now take place on 21 August.

Can I still get Coldplay tickets?

The band will play two nights at Manchester’s Etihad Stadium on 31 May and 1 June and Cardiff’s Principality Stadium on 6 June.
Fans can get their hands on tickets for the new dates via Ticketmaster and See Tickets.
