Coldplay is coming to Camp Randall Stadium. How to get tickets

On Sunday evening, Badgers and Madison-based concert promoter FPC Live shared a video on its social media channels that showed the band’s name and some of the band’s logos on video screens in the empty stadium.

Last month, the stadium-dominating tour – named after Coldplay’s 2021 album – was declared the best-selling rock tour of all time. According to Billboard, it has grossed $945.7 million from 8.8 million tickets so far since its March 2022 launch.

But there has been no Coldplay tour in Wisconsin since July 25, 2009, when the band played the Alpine Valley Music Theater in East Troy, where they played their 2008 signature track “Viva La Vida or Death and All His Friends.” And the band has never played Madison before: the only places Coldplay has played in Wisconsin are Alpine and the Rave and Bradley Center in Milwaukee.

Featuring original members Jonny Buckland, Guy Berryman and Will Champion, Coldplay has plenty of music for Wisconsin fans next year. Previous Music of the Spheres shows have included songs from Mylo “A Rush of Blood to the Head” and “X&Y.”
