Coldplay's "Music of the Spheres" Tour has become the highest-grossing and best-selling rock tour in history, surpassing Elton John's Farewell Yellow Brick Road Tour and U2's attendance record.
The tour has grossed approximately $945.7 million and sold over 8.8 million tickets since its start in March 2022. With 21 more concerts remaining, Coldplay could potentially become the first rock band to surpass $1 billion in revenue and sell over 10 million tickets for a single tour.
During their concert in Munich, Coldplay brought out Shawn Mendes for a special performance of their hit song "Fix You," with Chris Martin playing piano while Mendes sang alongside him, creating a heartfelt and emotional moment.
