British rock band Coldplay announced an additional show at Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys in Barcelona, scheduled for May 27, 2023. This event was added to the two already planned performances on May 24 and May 25, creating a three-night run in the Catalan capital.
The new concert was confirmed by the event organizer, Live Nation. The announcement followed overwhelming demand during the pre-sale for the existing Barcelona dates, underscoring the band’s strong popularity in Spain and the broader European circuit.
Tickets for all three Barcelona performances went on sale at 10:00 in the morning on Thursday, August 25, inviting fans from across the region to secure seats for the multi-night engagement. The rapid response to the sale reflected the lasting appeal of Coldplay’s live show, which blends immersive visual design, retrospective setlists, and a modern, festival-like energy that resonates with diverse audiences.
These Barcelona dates anchor the group’s 2023 summer itinerary, part of the broader Music of the Spheres World Tour. The tour includes stops across Portugal and Spain with a triple date in Barcelona, followed by appearances in Italy, Switzerland, Denmark, Sweden, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom. The global circuit demonstrates Coldplay’s enduring international footprint and their ability to draw large, cross-generational crowds.
Since the band began touring in March 2022, Coldplay has moved a remarkable number of tickets across continents, with more than four million sold to date. The shows in Latin America, North America, and Europe have reinforced Coldplay’s reputation for delivering high-energy performances that combine anthem-like songs with intimate moments, all backed by a dynamic stage production.
The Barcelona residency by the quartet led by vocalist Chris Martin marks a notable return to the Catalan capital. The group previously performed at Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys during the 2016 leg of the A Head Full of Dreams tour, a moment many fans still recall for its ambitious production and the connection forged with the Barcelona audience. That history adds a layer of anticipation to the current run, as concert-goers hope to experience the same sense of spectacle and communal joy that has defined Coldplay’s stadium-scale appearances.
