Coldplay 2016 tour

Dontfadeaway

They are putting up posters where they are playing.

So far Chile has posters up for a date in April and London and Manchester posters have been spotted for dates in June, so a Dublin date around then?

The posters look like this. Post if you see any around Dublin.

Slane or Marlay?

Aviva maybe?

There's a bunch of European dates too that finish in the first week of July. Would suit for a Marlay Park date if they are to play Ireland

I'm surprised there is no date for here. They didn't come here on their last tour either.

Nash Bridges

There seems to be very few dates for a stadium tour for a big band, then again the album hasn't even been released. Hopefully there will be at least one Irish gig announced.
Is the Aviva stadium an possibility?

kmurph

Gap in the schedule between June 24 - 28 which happens to be Glastonbury weekend. So Friday night headliners then?

Swashbuckler

If anyone has a presale code it would be very much appreciated.

I see these gigs sold out in minutes. Extra dates added. Still no mention of Dublin

I really don't get it. I really thought they would come here this tour after they ignored Ireland on the last one. I'm sure they could sell out Aviva easily. :mad:

Seen tickets for the Etihad Stadium on the 4th. £75 in Level 3. worth it? Love Coldplay but will the experience from level 3 be decent?

I wouldn't bother tbh especially at that price. I saw on fans forum that there's more dates to be announced. Likes of France and Belgium among other euro countries haven't added dates yet so I'd imagine we get announced with that group. Hard to see them skipping here again when they r so popular but Doubt it'll be announced b4 Christmas.

davywalsh7

any update on this? hardly gonna skip ireland again?

DareGod

A lot of big names are skipping Ireland the past few years.

Katy Perry, Coldplay and Madonna to name a few.

It's a bit infuriating.



(Yes Katy Perry played Belfast on that tour but it's extremely rare for a world tour to take in Belfast and not Dublin, and I'm talking ROI here.)

Doubt they're going to announce any Irish dates at this stage, especially seeing as the US dates have been announced too.

I'm off to Manchester to see them.

Yea I doubt it too. Just think it's strange as they haven't played since 2011 (oxegen) and haven't played their own gig since 2009. And it would sell out in a flash too. Can't afford to go outside ireland this year as I'm getting married.
Enjoy Manchester, etihad is a good setup was there for muse few years back.

Pretty much got the last ticket for Sunday the 19th of June in Wembley.

Reserved seating tickets, BK514. Added the lanyard too for £5 (might as well).

£80 but I'm dying to see them live and its just after I finish my leaving cert too!

where are you guys sitting and how much were your tickets?

Claude Burgundy

I've seen them 3 times and have really enjoyed it BUT i won't go out of the country to see them if they can't be bothered to come here.

I'd nearly agree, but I've never seen them before live. Also, got accom for £39 in a Premier Inn 3 miles from the stadium on the night, couldn't believe my luck!

I'm not doing too badly then, for a late booking

Hoping they play some tracks from Ghost Stories, as they didn't tour for that album.

Still gutted they didn't announce a date. They must hate Ireland.

Bit annoying alright, but I'm always up for a trip abroad!

Heard rumours this may be their last album, so delighted to get the tickets.

MadYaker

I saw them on the Viva La Vida tour with Elbow and White Lies supporting, it was a great gig. Their last 2 albums have been tragic though so I don't think I'll bother. Maybe they'll be headlining Glasto, if they are I might go for a look.

where would be the best place to get tickets for one of the London gigs?

Ticketmaster is the official retailer.

Really thought they would be playing Slane which is disappointing.

A bit off topic but is Slane even gonna go ahead this year?

Yes I know that but sold out everywhere apart from VIP tickets, has anyone used Viagogo? about €170 a ticket for standing there which is just about within my limit

I have a hotel book for the 19th if June was only €50 for a premier inn close to wembley so hoping some standing tickets become available as the Mrs is coming too so single seated tickets no good, if not I will have to get them from viagogo or stub hub

Out of interest if you don't have Glasto tickets already how would you manage to secure tickets considering it's already sold out?

There's a resale in April, quite difficult to get tickets in but you may get lucky. You will need to go onto the Glastonbury website and register with a photo beforehand though.

Going to Glastonbury myself so I'm delighted I'll get to see them on this tour even if they don't announce Irish dates.

Did anyone who bought tickets for this actually receive them yet? Bought tickets for Wembley but they haven't arrived yet.

Haven't got mine either. Only purchased mine a week ago. Used NI address as for some reason it wouldn't let me use an Irish address for the collectors tickets.

Does it say dispatched on your order status page?

What do you think are the chances of them releasing more standing tickets for the Sunday night? I am looking at about €160 on stub hub at the moment which I will pay if I have to

Doubtful.

Would you not buy a reserved seating ticket? Mine were €106 direct from Ticketmaster with the collectors lanyard.

Concert happens to coincide with a trip to Mexico so will be seeing them there! Haven't been to one of their shows since the Viva La Vida concert which was quite some time ago now.

There are lots of post sale sites selling tickets.
