Chris Martin announcing plans for 138 more shows beginning in 2027

I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about what comes next for us, and today I wanted to share something that fills me with a deep sense of excitement, gratitude, and purpose. Over the past few years, we’ve been on an incredible journey together — across continents, across cultures, across moments that have felt both intimate and enormous all at once. Every night, every crowd, every voice singing back to us has reminded me why we started this in the first place.

And so, with a full heart, I’m very happy to say that we’re not done yet. Not even close.

We’re currently making plans to embark on a new run of 138 shows beginning in 2027.

That number might sound a bit wild — and honestly, it feels wild to say it out loud — but it comes from a place of genuine love for what we do and for the connection we share with all of you. Touring has become more than just performing songs; it’s become a kind of shared experience where music, energy, and emotion meet in a way that’s hard to describe but impossible to forget.

When we step on stage, it doesn’t feel like we’re playing to you. It feels like we’re creating something with you.

Over time, we’ve learned so much about how to make our shows more meaningful, more sustainable, and more inclusive. As we look ahead to 2027, those lessons are shaping everything we’re planning. We want these 138 shows to represent the very best of what we can offer — not just musically, but in how we care for the planet, how we bring people together, and how we create moments that stay with you long after the lights go down.

We’re exploring new ways to make the concerts even more immersive. That means pushing our production creatively, experimenting with new visuals, and finding ways to make each show feel unique while still being part of a bigger story. At the same time, we’re continuing our commitment to reducing the environmental impact of touring. This is something we take very seriously, and we’re working with brilliant people who challenge us to do better every step of the way.

Of course, none of this would mean anything without you.

The truth is, your support has carried us through every phase of our journey. From the earliest gigs to the biggest stadiums, you’ve shown up with open hearts and open voices. You’ve turned songs into anthems and concerts into communities. There’s a kind of magic that happens when thousands of people come together with a shared feeling, and we never take that for granted.

As we start planning this next chapter, we’re thinking about all the places we’ve been — and all the places we haven’t yet reached. We want this tour to go as far and wide as possible, bringing the music to cities and countries that have been waiting patiently for us. Whether you’ve seen us ten times or you’ve never had the chance before, we want these shows to feel like they belong to you.

There’s also a personal side to this announcement. After so many years of making music and touring, you naturally start to reflect on what matters most. For me, it always comes back to connection — the simple, powerful idea that music can bring people together in a way that transcends language, background, and circumstance. In a world that often feels divided, those moments of unity feel more important than ever.

That’s what these 138 shows are really about.

They’re about joy. They’re about release. They’re about standing next to someone you’ve never met and feeling like, for a few hours, you understand each other completely. They’re about singing something at the top of your lungs and realizing that thousands of other people are feeling the exact same thing at the exact same time.

We still have a lot of work ahead of us before 2027 arrives. There are songs to finish, ideas to explore, and countless details to figure out. But the foundation is there, and the intention is clear: to create something that feels alive, uplifting, and worth sharing.

As always, we’ll keep you updated as plans come together — dates, cities, and all the little surprises we have in mind. For now, I just wanted to let you know where our hearts are and where we’re heading.

Thank you for being part of this journey with us. Thank you for giving our music a home in your lives. And thank you for reminding us, night after night, why we love doing this.

We can’t wait to see you out there again.

With love always,
Chris
