Coldplay Mumbai concert date, time and venue
The Grammy-award winning band is coming to India as part of their ‘Music of the Spheres World Tour’. They are set to perform in Mumbai on January 18 (Saturday), 19 (Sunday) and 21 (Tuesday). All three shows are set to take place at DY Patil Stadium, Navi Mumbai.

How to reach the venue
The nearest local train stations to the venue are Nerul and CBD Belapur on the Harbour Line, both approximately 3 km away. Additionally, one can also take a bus or auto/cab to the venue. Parking is not available, hence public transport is recommended.
Coldplay Mumbai concert tickets
The tickets for all three shows were sold out as soon as they went live in November. BookMyShow released additional limited tickets for the shows last week, but they were also sold out quickly.
For all valid ticket-holders, the wristband (either delivered or to be collected from box office) will be their ticket to the concert, according to BookMyShow. No tickets will be sold at the venue.

Artists Shone, Elyanna and Jasleen Royal will perform and entertain the crowd before Coldplay takes the stage on all three days.
In addition to performing several hits from their album ‘Music of the Spheres’ and singles like ‘We Pray’ and ‘Feels Like Falling in Love’ from their latest album Moon Music, fans can expect other loved songs from the band’s incredible discography, including ‘Yellow’, ‘The Scientist’, ‘Hymn for the Weekend’, ‘Fix You’, ‘Viva La Vida’, ‘Paradise’, ‘A Sky Full of Stars’ and ‘Adventure of a Lifetime’.
Coldplay Mumbai concert security guidelines
BookMyShow has also released several security guidelines to be followed at the venue. All attendees will have to carry a copy of their valid government photo ID along with the soft copy of the valid government photo ID of the primary transactor.
Additionally, several security checks will be implemented to spot counterfeit wristbands and black marketers. This comes after multiple controversies regarding the black marketing of Coldplay concert tickets.
Coldplay Mumbai concert essential tips
While the three shows are expected to be grand spectacles with fans immersed in music and fun, here are some tips that can make the experience more convenient for you.
Wear comfortable footwear: You might have to stand in lines before entering the venue and for some tickets, even throughout the concert, So, it is recommended to wear comfortable shoes.
Eat well before reaching: While food and beverages will be available at the venue, it is always safe to eat something before reaching the venue so as to have enough energy and prevent any health issues.

Network considerations: In crowded spaces and events like concerts, festivals, etc., people usually experience slow internet speed or network delays due to congestion. Be prepared for the same.
