Coldplay fans have been eagerly anticipating the rock band's return to India since their last visit in 2016. The upcoming concerts are scheduled for January 18 and 19, 2025, at the DY Patil Sports Stadium in Mumbai. On Sunday afternoon, online booking platform BookMyShow began selling tickets, but heavy traffic caused the site to crash. Soon after, the site was back online. By around 1:50 PM, over 11 lakh people were still waiting to book tickets for the first day, while the tickets for the second day had been sold out. This clearly shows the fans' excitement for two unforgettable nights of music and magic.
Coldplay will also offer a limited number of Infinity Tickets, priced at Euro 20 (approximately INR 2000) per ticket, which will go on sale on November 22, as per ANI.

Some of the band's notable songs include Paradise, The Scientist, In My Place, Fix You, Viva la Vida, Every Teardrop Is a Waterfall, A Sky Full of Stars, Adventure of a Lifetime and Something Just Like This.
