Coldplay fans, get ready for the event of a lifetime! The hype is real as the legendary British band has added a much-anticipated stop in Ahmedabad to their India tour, promising an unforgettable night at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Motera.
This January, Coldplay will perform in front of an expected crowd of over 100,000 fans, making it their grandest show to date. The excitement is mounting as tickets go live on Saturday, 16th November, at 12 pm IST on BookMyShow.
Ticket pricing, details, and booking process
The Narendra Modi Stadium, known as the world’s largest cricket stadium, can host over 100,000 attendees, and tickets are priced with inclusivity in mind. Here’s the breakdown:
General Seating: ₹2,500 to ₹12,500
Standing Floor Space (closer to the stage): ₹6,450
In an effort to make the booking process smoother and avoid server overloads, BookMyShow has implemented a virtual queue and waiting room feature. This system will use automated queue randomisation, so fans will be assigned positions in the queue automatically when the sale goes live. The users can enter the Waiting Room anytime between 11 and 11:59 a.m.
Each user can book a maximum of four tickets per transaction, giving fans a fair chance to grab their seats. For those who missed out on tickets for the Mumbai shows, this additional show in Ahmedabad is the perfect opportunity.

The Ahmedabad concert is part of a tour that begins with three sold-out shows in Mumbai at DY Patil Stadium on January 18, 19, and 20, 2025. Those tickets sold out in record time last month, leaving millions of hopeful fans scrambling for seats. Now, with this additional show, Coldplay fans have another shot at experiencing the magic live.
Virtual queue system and safety measures
Following ticket scalping issues during the Mumbai sales, authorities and BookMyShow have implemented stricter measures to protect fans. In Mumbai, scalpers were reselling tickets at exorbitant prices, prompting a response from both the platform and authorities. To tackle this, BookMyShow has introduced a virtual queue system, complete with a waiting room where fans will be randomly assigned queue positions.
As excitement builds for the concert, the demand for accommodation in Ahmedabad has surged. Hotel prices have skyrocketed, with some high-end hotels charging as much as ₹50,000 per night— a massive increase from the usual rates.
With the Ahmedabad show expected to sell out fast, be sure to get ready to join the virtual queue tomorrow and secure your spot in Coldplay history!
