Another fan, Chayan Jain, compared prices from last year, revealing that a hotel room which cost Rs. 2,500 per night was now listed at Rs. 1.17 lakh for the same date. “What a jump in price after the Coldplay announcement,” Jain remarked.

Others also shared similar experiences, with one user pointing out that no hotel in Ahmedabad on January 24-25 was available for less than Rs. 50,000. “Pro-tip for people going to Coldplay: stay in Vadodara and commute to Ahmedabad,” they suggested. Another added, “When even miles don’t come to rescue. Hotel rates already skyrocketed for 25/26th in Ahmedabad.”

Coldplay’s post on X reads: “2025 AHMEDABAD DATE ANNOUNCED. The band will play their biggest ever show, at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on 25 January, 2025. Tickets on sale Saturday, 16 November at 12pm IST. Delivered by DHL.”

Chris Martin Gets A ‘YouTube Moment’ At Coldplay Concert, Falls Through Trap Door

November 4, 2024, 12:52 pm

During Coldplay’s final show at Melbourne’s Marvel Stadium, lead singer Chris Martin experienced a narrow escape when he fell through an open trapdoor. This incident, captured in various videos and photos, took place on Sunday, leaving the audience gasping.

In a video shared on X (formerly Twitter) by user Greg Briggs, Chris was engaging with the crowd when he accidentally stepped backward into the trapdoor. Fortunately, someone was already positioned inside and reached out to help cushion his fall.

Watch:

‘That Wasn’t Planned’

After regaining his footing, Chris humorously addressed the crowd, saying, “That wasn’t planned. Thank you for catching me so much. Thank you guys, holy s***, that was a YouTube moment.” The clip was posted with the caption: “The moment Chris Martin fell through a trapdoor right in front of me at the #Coldplay concert tonight.”

This was not the first time a performer in Melbourne experienced a stage mishap. Last month, singer Olivia Rodrigo also fell into a small opening during her concert at the Rod Laver Arena. She quickly reassured her fans, stating, “Oh my God! That was fun, I’m OK! Sometimes there is just a hole in the stage, OK… where was I?”

Coldplay’s Ongoing Tour

Coldplay has been on their international ‘Music of the Spheres World Tour’ since March 2022. Following their Melbourne performance, the band, consisting of Martin, guitarist Jonny Buckland, bassist Guy Berryman, and drummer Will Champion, will head to Sydney to complete their Australian leg before moving on to New Zealand.

The tour is set to include three shows in Mumbai, India, in January 2025, concluding with a 10-day stint at London’s Wembley Stadium in September 2025.

Insights from Chris Martin

In a recent interview with Apple Music’s Zane Lowe, Chris discussed Coldplay’s goal of releasing 12 “proper albums,” of which 10 have already been launched, including the forthcoming Moon Music.

He emphasized the importance of setting a “limit” for the band’s work, “We are only going to do 12 proper albums, and that’s real… because less is more. And for some of our critics, even less would be even more. It’s really important that we have that limit. There’s only 12 and a half Beatles albums. There’s about the same Bob Marley, so all of our heroes. And also having that limit means that the quality control is so high right now, and for a song to make it, it’s almost impossible, which is great.”

Coldplay India Tour Cancelled? Fans React To BookMyShow Ticket After Ticket Scandal

October 1, 2024, 4:09 pm

The much-anticipated Coldplay concert in India, scheduled for January 2025, faces uncertainty after the CEO of BookMyShow’s parent company, Big Tree Entertainment, Ashish Hemrajani, skipped a second summons from the Mumbai Police’s Economic Offences Wing (EOW). Hemrajani, who was summoned over allegations of black market ticket sales for the concert, did not attend the hearing, fueling speculation about the concert’s possible cancellation.

The Mumbai Police’s EOW had issued the first summons on September 27, followed by another on September 30. Instead of appearing, Hemrajani sent the company’s COO, Anil Makhija, in his place, as reported by ANI.

Social Media Buzzes with Speculation of Concert Cancellation

Fans of Coldplay have taken to social media, expressing concerns that the concert might be canceled amidst the controversy. Many have questioned if the event will take place at all, given the gravity of the ticket scam allegations.

“Coldplay might get cancelled,” one user posted on X. Another user wrote, “Sources suggest that the #coldplayconcert could be cancelled over the alleged #BookMyShow scam! It’s a shame that nothing is transparent in India.”

Some fans even appealed to the band directly, with one user tagging Coldplay’s lead singer Chris Martin, urging the group to distance themselves from the ticketing partner. “@coldplay should cancel their India concert as fraud and scam-star ticketing partners are involved,” the post read.

Others, however, warned against cancellation, stating it could discourage international artists from performing in India. “Canceling the Coldplay concert will not solve anything. It will only deter foreign artists from coming to India again.”

Legal Battle Against BookMyShow

The ticketing controversy erupted after advocate Amit Vyas filed a legal complaint against BookMyShow for allegedly facilitating the black marketing of tickets for the Coldplay concert. Vyas accused the company of blocking genuine users and allowing third parties to sell tickets at exorbitant prices. Tickets originally priced at ₹2,500 were reportedly resold by third-party sellers for as much as ₹3 lakh.

Don’t fall prey to unauthorized platforms selling fake tickets for Coldplay’s Music Of The Spheres World Tour 2025 in India!” the company posted on X.

Fans Await Clarity as EOW Continues Investigation

As the investigation continues, Coldplay fans are left in limbo, wondering whether the concert will proceed as planned. With the EOW digging deeper into the allegations, the future of the event remains uncertain. For now, all eyes are on the ongoing legal proceedings, and fans await further updates from both BookMyShow and Coldplay’s management.

Coldplay Concert in India Creates Nationwide Buzz

Tickets for their 2025 Music of the Spheres tour were sold out almost instantly, leaving many fans elated and others disappointed. Social media is abuzz with reactions from those who managed to secure tickets and those who missed out. Notably, Bollywood producer and director Karan Johar joined the conversation with a witty remark about his own experience.

Karan Johar’s Humorous Take on Missing Out

On Monday, Karan Johar shared a humorous Instagram story about the Coldplay ticket frenzy. In his post, he subtly hinted at the fact that even with his privileges and connections, there are things beyond his control. He wrote, “Dear Privilege, I like that Coldplay and Mini Kelly always keep you grounded. You can’t always get everything you want.” This light-hearted comment reflected the widespread struggle for tickets and added a touch of relatability, even for someone as influential as Johar.

Coldplay Adds Third Mumbai Concert In 2025 Amid High Demand

September 23, 2024, 12:36 pm

British rock band Coldplay announced a third concert in Mumbai as part of their “Music Of The Spheres World Tour 2025” due to “phenomenal demand.” This decision came after fans expressed disappointment over long virtual queues on the ticketing platform BookMyShow. All three shows are now sold out.

Ticket Sales

Tickets for the new show, scheduled for January 21 at DY Patil Sports Stadium, went on sale at 2 PM IST. Coldplay confirmed the addition in a post on X, providing a link for ticket purchases. However, reports indicated that the BookMyShow website and app experienced crashes when the sale opened. The hashtags ‘Coldplay,’ ‘BookMyShow,’ and ‘Crashed’ began trending as fans struggled to access the platform.

Coldplay had previously scheduled two shows on January 18 and 19, 2025, at the same venue. Many fans reported that they were unable to purchase tickets even after the official sale time, with tickets remaining unavailable long after the noon deadline.

Overwhelming Demand

A spokesperson for BookMyShow referred to the situation as a “landmark moment” in India’s live entertainment history, highlighting the overwhelming love and excitement from fans. Approximately 1.3 crores fans logged in to purchase tickets, leading to the implementation of a queueing system to manage the demand.

In response to the chaos, BookMyShow acknowledged that the high traffic caused delays, stating, “Because of heavy traffic, the queue is moving slower than expected. Thank you for your patience!”

Caution Against Scalpers

Amid the frenzy, some fans pointed out that other platforms were selling tickets at inflated prices, prompting one user to warn Coldplay about the situation. In response, BookMyShow cautioned fans against unauthorized sellers, stating that such tickets were invalid and that ticket scalping is illegal in India.

“Please don’t fall prey to this because you will be buying fake tickets. Avoid scams! BookMyShow is the only official platform for ticket sales,” they emphasized in a post on X.

Coldplay’s First Visit In 8 Years

The Mumbai concerts will be Coldplay’s first visit to India in eight years, with their last performance taking place during the Global Citizen Festival in 2016. The “Music Of The Spheres World Tour 2025” is set to kick off on October 30 at the Marvel Stadium in Melbourne, Australia, and will conclude on August 31, 2025, at Wembley Stadium in London.

Coldplay Tickets Hit ₹3 Lakh on Resale Sites Despite BookMyShow’s Warning

September 23, 2024, 8:29 am

Thousands of fans are patiently waiting for hours in a virtual queue in hopes of obtaining tickets for Coldplay’s upcoming events in Mumbai, where the excitement for the band has reached frenzy. The Grammy-winning band will play three events in January 2025 as part of their Music of the Spheres World Tour, following a third show on January 21.

Ticket Prices Skyrocket in Re-Sale Market

Despite the addition of the third concert date, many Coldplay fans were left disappointed, unable to secure tickets through the official ticketing platform, BookMyShow. Although all tickets sold out on the platform, tickets quickly appeared on re-selling sites like Viagogo, with prices reaching exorbitant levels.

While tickets for the “Lounge” section at DY Patil Stadium, where Coldplay will perform, were originally priced at ₹35,000 on BookMyShow, the same tickets are now being resold for as much as ₹3 lakh on Viagogo. In some extreme cases, Level 1 tickets were listed at an astonishing ₹7.7 lakh.

How does @viagogo get Coldplay tickets at the same time as @bookmyshow but at black market prices several times higher? Clearly there's a nexus and BMS is selling them to Viagogo. This is screaming scam! pic.twitter.com/ZgHmE8JMpp

— Vijaynarain (@Vijaynarain) September 22, 2024

This comes despite warnings from BookMyShow that tickets bought from unauthorised platforms would be considered invalid. “It has come to our attention that unauthorised platforms are listing tickets for Coldplay’s Music Of The Spheres World Tour 2025 in India… These tickets are invalid,” BookMyShow posted on social media platform X, advising fans to avoid potential scams. They also reminded fans that ticket scalping is illegal in India and punishable by law.

Fans Blame BookMyShow for Scalping Issues

Despite the warnings, many Coldplay fans expressed frustration, not only with the resellers but with BookMyShow itself. Fans accused the platform of creating a system that indirectly benefits illegal scalpers, as tickets were not tied to booking IDs. This allowed anyone to purchase tickets and later resell them at inflated prices.

A user raised suspicions about how Viagogo obtained tickets at the same time as BookMyShow but at much higher prices, calling it a “scam.” Fans also criticized BookMyShow for creating a virtual queue based on session ID rather than customer ID, making it easier for scalpers to game the system.

Coldplay’s Massive Fan Following in India

Numerous fans are fighting for tickets to Coldplay’s January 2025 performances, demonstrating the band’s undeniable appeal in India. The group attracted large audiences to their previous performances in the nation, such as their 2016 appearance at the Global Citizen Festival. Coldplay’s performances have become the most anticipated events of the year due to the high demand, near-instant ticket sales, and skyrocketing black market pricing.

While many fans eagerly await the concerts in Mumbai, the resale issue has left them hopeful for a solution to the ticket scalping issue.

BookMyShow Crashes as Coldplay India 2025 Tickets Cause Frenzy

September 22, 2024, 1:36 pm

This will mark Coldplay’s return to India after a nine-year hiatus, with their last performance in 2016. The band is set to perform at Navi Mumbai’s DY Patil Stadium on January 18 and 19, 2025.

Frustrated fans took to X (formerly Twitter) to express their displeasure over the technical difficulties. One user tweeted, “Dear @bookmyshow, if you get exclusive rights to sell a concert, at least be prepared for it. #Coldplayindia #Coldplay.”

Another user commented, “Yeah… I don’t think anyone is getting those Coldplay tickets in India… You tried, BookMyShow. Were you able to?”

In the video, a young fan can be seen standing just behind Roger Federer. Interestingly, instead of wearing typical concert attire, the fan wore a white Wimbledon t-shirt. Whether this was a lucky coincidence or a deliberate choice is unclear. After getting his t-shirt signed, the fan pulled Federer for a hug before they both returned to enjoying the concert.

Social Media Buzz

The unexpected fan-signing moment quickly went viral. A tennis-centric Instagram page shared the clip, captioning it, “I’m jealous! I dream about it!” While many fans thought the fan was simply lucky, others criticized him for disturbing Federer during the concert. Critics pointed out that Federer’s wife, Mirka Federer, appeared annoyed by the fan’s intrusion and at one point even asked Roger to focus back on the stage.

Mixed Reactions

One Instagram user commented, “This guy went to the concert wearing a Wimbledon t-shirt! Iconic.” Another person remarked on Federer’s universal appeal, saying, “He is gonna be the legend wherever he goes.”

Expressing envy towards the fan, another commenter wrote, “Omg. It has always been at the top of my bucket list to meet Roger!!” Another user praised the fan’s preparation, stating, “Always be prepared. The guy took his chance. The shirt would be worth a fortune.”

Criticism and Support

However, not everyone was pleased. “Fan was so inopportune though, pestering him for an autograph when he’s with his wife and kids. Had others done the same, he would have been forced to flee, ruining the concert for him and his family,” read another comment.

Talking about Mirka Federer’s intervention, another person observed, “She is loyal and right to protect him! Otherwise, he could spend half the night giving autographs. Don’t you guys get it?”

As the video continues to circulate, it highlights the balance celebrities like Federer must maintain between their personal lives and public adoration.
