Coldplay concert chronology

The Music of the Spheres World Tour is the ongoing eighth concert tour undertaken by British rock band Coldplay. It is being staged to promote their ninth and tenth studio albums, Music of the Spheres (2021) and Moon Music (2024), respectively. The tour began at San José's Estadio Nacional de Costa Rica on 18 March 2022 and is scheduled to end at London's Wembley Stadium on 8 September 2025. It is the band's return to live performances after the COVID-19 pandemic. They had not toured their previous record, Everyday Life (2019), because of environmental concerns. Prior to the tour, they spent two years developing strategies that aimed to reduce CO2 emissions by 50%, compared to the Head Full of Dreams Tour (2016–17).

Coldplay announced the tour on 14 October 2021, a day before the release of Music of the Spheres. Similar to the Mylo Xyloto Tour (2011–12), the concerts make extensive use of pyrotechnics and confetti. However, they were adapted to minimise the group's carbon footprint. Other ideas included crafting the first mobile rechargeable show battery in the world with BMW and planting a tree for every ticket sold. Emissions were cut by 59% over the first two years of the tour, leading Time to list Coldplay among the world's most influential climate action leaders. Pollstar declared that they ushered in "a new era of sustainable touring".

With a global cultural impact, the Music of the Spheres World Tour has grossed $1.14 billion in revenue from 10.3 million tickets across 175 dates, making it the most attended tour of all time and the second-highest-grossing. The band also set a variety of records at the venues they visited. The shows received widespread acclaim from music critics, who praised Coldplay's stage presence, musicianship, versatility, joyfulness and production value. A concert film, Music of the Spheres: Live at River Plate, was released to cinemas around the world in 2023, featuring their performances in Buenos Aires.
