Chris Martin and Coldplay are going back to the start. The group announced yet another extension of their record-setting Music of the Spheres tour on Tuesday morning (Oct. 8) via a set of summer 2025 North American shows that will kick off more than three years after the tour first touched down in the U.S. and Canada on May 6, 2022; it officially launched in San José, Costa Rica in March 2022.
The 10 newly added gigs will include Coldplay’s debut stadium performances in Stanford, CA, El Paso, Denver, Las Vegas, Nashville and Madison, WI; in fact, the latter gig will mark the first music event at the University of Wisconsin-Madison’s Camp Randall Stadium since a 1997 Rolling Stones gig. The band will also have the honor of being one of the first bands to perform at Toronto’s newest venue, the 50,000-capacity Rogers Stadium, set to open in June 2025.
After launching on May 31 at Stanford Stadium, the tour will hit Las Vegas, Denver, El Paso, Toronto, Foxborough, MA, Madison and Nashville before winding down on July 26 at Miami’s Hard Rock Stadium.

In the meantime, the Spheres tour will visit Australia again in late October and early November before moving on to Abu Dhabi and Mumbai, India in January 2025, followed by Hong Kong and Seoul in April. The band also announced an update on their extensive sustainability initiatives on the tour, which they said has produced 59% less CO2e emissions on a show-by-show basis to date than their 2016-2017 stadium tour, exceeding their original target of 50% reductions. They also noted that more than nine million trees have been planted around the world as part of the tour’s green efforts, with another million to be planted before year’s end.
Last week, Coldplay released its 10th album, Moon Music, which features the singles “We Pray” and “feelslikefallinginlove.”

“Through this statement, we want to deeply thank the expressions of affection, concern, and prayers towards our artist Christian Nodal,” said the statement on the singer’s Instagram stories. “We inform you that he is already home, where he must take a few days of absolute rest, while continuing with the treatment received to eradicate the strong stomach infection, which had him under observation in the emergency room in the past days.”
“As he recovers, we unfortunately must announce that the dates scheduled for this weekend in Denver, Colorado, and Salt Lake City, Utah, will be postponed until November,” it added. “The tour will resume next Monday, October 7, at the palenque in the City of Guadalajara, as part of the Fiestas de Octubre.”

Christian Nodal was recently hospitalized in Mexico, where he was scheduled to perform on Wednesday (Oct. 2) at the Palenque de la Feria de Pachuca; the show was rescheduled for Oct. 14. His publicist, Conchita Oliva, told Billboard on Wednesday that the Mexican star — who had performed a concert last weekend in Los Angeles — began feeling ill upon arriving in Mexico.
Oliva also posted a photo of Nodal in a hospital bed with his eyes closed and a woman’s hand, presumably his wife Ángela Aguilar, caressing his head.
The performer whose hits include “Dime Cómo Quieres” and “Adiós Amor” has more dates scheduled in Mexico and the U.S. throughout the month. On Oct. 20, he is slated to perform at the Prudential Center in Newark, N.J., followed by a gig at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn on Oct. 26.

Shortly after rolling out the first North American dates for their 2025 reunion tour, Oasis revealed that they will ditch Ticketmaster’s dynamic pricing scheme for the gigs. “Ticketmaster’s dynamic pricing model will not be applied to the forthcoming sale of tickets to Oasis concerts in North America,” the group announced on X in an official statement from their management on Monday morning (Sept. 30).
“It is widely accepted that dynamic pricing remains a useful tool to combat ticket touting and keep prices for a significant proportion of fans lower than the market rate and thus more affordable,” the statement continued. “But, when unprecedented ticket demand (where the entire tour could be sold many times over at the moment tickets go on sale) is combined with technology that cannot cope with that demand, it becomes less effective and can lead to an unacceptable experience for fans.”
The statement concluded, “We have made this decision for the North American tour to hopefully avoid a repeat of the issues fans in the UK and Ireland experienced recently.” At press time a spokesperson for Ticketmaster had not returned Billboard‘s request for comment.

The move comes in response to the bumpy rollout of the initial slate of dates for the first Oasis tour in 16 years. Back in August, the crushing demand for the summer 2025 UK/Ireland reunion shows by battling brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher sparked some fury among fans who spent hours on queue in a desperate bid to snag one of the one million tickets.
The anger was such that the British government promised to open a probe into the use of dynamic pricing for concert tickets after fans who waited on digital line for hours discovered that the cost of a standing ticket had nearly doubled due to high demand. At the time, a Ticketmaster spokesperson said that all ticket prices are set by the tour’s promoters.
Dynamic ticket pricing has become a staple in the U.S. live music industry in recent years, but Oasis’ comeback tour – jointly promoted by Live Nation, SJM Concerts, MCD and DF Concerts – marked its most high-profile and possibly biggest roll out for live concerts in the U.K. and Ireland. The U.K. competition regulator launched an investigation into TM over the Oasis ticket roll-out a week after the initial on-sale prompted hundreds of complains from fans.
At the time, Oasis said they had “no awareness that dynamic pricing was going to be used” for the UK ticketing roll-out, adding that “it needs to be made clear that Oasis leave decisions on ticketing and pricing entirely to their promoters and management.”
The North American run of stadium dates for the 2025 reunion tour were rolled out on Monday morning, consisting of visits to five North American stadiums beginning with an August 24 show at Rogers Stadium in Toronto, followed by an August 28 gig at Soldier Field in Chicago and an August 31 stop at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J.
For now, the North American portion will wind down with a Sept. 6 show at the Rose Bowl Stadium in Los Angeles and a Sept. 12 stop at Estadio GNP Seguros in Mexico City. Cage the Elephant — led by brothers singer Matt Shultz and guitarist Brad Shultz — will open all the new dates.
Oasis warned fans to be “careful what you wish for” over the weekend, hinting that the long-awaited announcement of additional international dates for their reunion tour were on the horizon. Well, that tease became a reality on Monday morning (Sept. 30) when brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher revealed the first dates for the North American leg of their 2025 world tour.

The run of concerts is currently slated to wind down with a Sept. 6 show at the Rose Bowl Stadium in Los Angeles and a Sept. 12 stop at Estadio GNP Seguros in Mexico City. A press release noted that the gigs will be Oasis first in North America in 16 years, with the band saying, “America. Oasis is coming. You have one last chance to prove that you loved us all along.” Cage the Elephant — led by singer Matt Shultz and his brother, guitarist Brad Shultz — will open all the new dates.
Oasis shocked the world in August when they revealed that they would put their differences aside and reunite for one of the most anticipated rock get-backs of all time. The first round of 2025 shows across the U.K. instantly sold out for the tour that is slated to kick off with two shows at Principality Stadium in Cardiff on July 4-5, followed by a five-night stand at Heaton Park in their native Manchester (July 11, 12, 16, 19, 20) and another five-night run at Wembley Stadium in London (July 25, 26, 30, August 2, 3).
The swing will then hit Dublin, Ireland for two shows at Croke Park (August 16, 17) before hopping the Atlantic for the North American shows and returning to Wembley for two more sold-out gigs on Sept. 27, 28.
The last time Oasis played the U.S. in 2008 on the Dig Out Your Soul tour they performed in 10,000-20,000 capacity arenas. The stadiums on their upcoming North American swing will accommodate between 45,000-80,000+ fans. According to the release announcing the new shows, plans are still underway for Oasis Live ’25 to hit “other continents outside of Europe and North America later next year.
Registration for a presale for the North American dates is open here through Tuesday (Oct. 1) at 8 a.m. ET, with a general onsale slated to begin on Friday (Oct. 4) at 12 p.m. ET local time here.
