Coldplay · Music of the Spheres World Tour

Coldplay Music of the Spheres Tour Setlist — Every Show

The Music of the Spheres World Tour has become one of the most ambitious live productions in concert history — every fan receives a LED wristband at entry, turning the entire stadium into a synchronised light display. Across 18 tracked dates in the US and UK in 2025, Coldplay delivered a ~28-song setlist with remarkable consistency: 22 songs appeared at every single show.

Light Through the Veins opened most shows and A Wave gently closed them. In between: Yellow, Viva la Vida, Fix You, The Scientist — the full Coldplay canon. Twenty songs rotated across the remaining slots, meaning each city heard something that no other city did.
