Coldplay's 'Music of the Spheres' World Tour has made a significant impact in Hull, UK, with two sold-out performances at Craven Park Stadium on August 18 and 19, 2025. These concerts mark the band's first-ever shows in Hull, drawing fans from across the region.
In a move to support the local community, Coldplay allocated 50% of the tickets for the Hull shows to residents with HU, YO, DN, or LN postcodes. Additionally, 10% of the proceeds from these concerts are being donated to the Music Venue Trust, an organization dedicated to supporting grassroots music venues and emerging artists in the UK.

The band has also emphasized sustainability during their tour. The concerts at Craven Park are powered entirely by renewable energy sources, including solar, wind, and kinetic energy generated by the audience. This initiative reflects Coldplay's commitment to reducing the environmental impact of their performances. (hullwhatson.com)
