Coldplay's Australian tour 2023: Where to buy tickets and everything ...

Coldplay is set to tour Australia for the first time since 2016. 

The band was last on our shores for a sold-out tour to promote their album - Head Full of Dreams (2015) - seven years ago, with five stadium shows in Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane. 

In the tour before that, the band performed an intimate one-off gig in Sydney to promote their album Ghost Stories (2014). 

And now, it looks like history will repeat itself, with the band's touring partner Live Nation revealing that the British band will be performing just one gig in Australia as part of their Music of the Spheres (2021) tour. 

WATCH NOW: Live Nation announces that Coldplay is coming to Australia. Article continues after video. 

In a cryptic post shared to the official Live Nation Australia social media accounts on Sunday May 6, Live Nation shared a video of Optus Stadium in Perth, before panning to a big screen within the stadium that simply read, "Coldplay Music of the Spheres World Tour 2023."

The screen then went dark before a message in white text popped up that read, "Western Australia Walking On A Dream."

Despite only being 30 seconds long, the announcement sent Australian fans into a frenzy, with many sharing their excitement AND frustration at the band for only planning to perform in one Australian city.

"Surely the tour will be around Australia? Don't mess around please," one fan anxiously wrote. 

"Just Perth?," another responded incredulously. 

"Nowhere else in Aus? C'mon guys!"

Despite this, many are still willing to make the journey to Perth to watch the band perform - but that's only if they are lucky enough to get tickets!

And for those living in Western Australia, the news is a dream come true. 

"All the moaners writing 'it better not just be Perth' need to stop. Coldplay haven't played here since 2009 so it's great we're finally getting to see them live again and at our amazing beautiful Optus Stadium," wrote one local.

From what we can gather, it seems like the decision to only visit Perth as part of the 'world tour' was intentional, with the band appearing to join in partnership with the West Australian government and their tourism board. 

And given the popularity of the band, the gig is sure to sell out all 60,000 seats available at Optus Stadium. 

The show is set for November 18, 2023 and tickets will go on sale on Tuesday May 16 at 10am AWST.
