Coldplay have shared a poster which appears to be hinting at a run of UK stadium shows for summer 2025.

Reproductions of the poster which advertised the band’s first gig – from 1998 at the Dublin Castle – went up at the London venue today (Sunday 15 September), with handwritten amendments that suggest an announcement is forthcoming.
Added to the poster is a note suggesting tour dates – “August 2025 – Craven park, Hull, + Wembley Stadium, London.” It adds that the shows will be, “In support of Music Venue Trust, 10% all band profits to small UK venues + upcoming acts” and, “100% solar-powered + wind + kinetic”.
Coldplay suggested that they were behind the stunt by sharing a video to their Instagram Stories of the posters decorating the walls of the London venue, while Music Venue Trust COO Beverley Whitrick also shared a photograph of the poster to her Instagram.
Coldplay’s new album, Moon Music, will be released on 4 October, and will feature the singles feelslikeimfallinginlove and We Pray (featuring Little Simz, Burna Boy, Elyanna & Tini). Each vinyl copy of the album – produced my Max Martin – will be made out of nine recycled PET-plastic bottles that have been recovered from waste, which will prevent the manufacture of more than 25 metric tonnes of virgin plastic, and provide an 85% reduction in CO2 emissions compared to traditional 140g vinyl.
Likewise, CD editions of the record will be the first in the world to be released on ‘EcoCD’, created from 90% recycled polycarbonate, sourced from post-consumer waste streams.
There will also be a limited ‘Notebook Edition’ of the record, which comes as a casebound hardback book, a replica of Chris Martin’s original studio notebook. It will contain 28 pages of notes, lyrics and illustrations from the album’s creative process.
