Following the spectacular sellout success of this weekend’s Perth Optus Stadium shows – part of the November 2023 Asia leg of Coldplay’s record-breaking Music Of The Spheres World Tour which has also taken them to Tokyo, Kaohsiung and Jakarta – the band have today announced a run of Australia and New Zealand dates for October and November 2024. The shows will see Coldplay perform in Sydney, MelbourneandAuckland for the first time since 2016.
Fans can register now at Coldplay.com for access to the ticket presale – which begins at 10am local time on Wednesday, 29th November. The general sale begins on Friday, 1st December at 10am local time.
Since the first Music Of The Spheres World Tour date in March 2022, the band have sold over 9 million tickets – the most for any tour over the last two years. The tour has also received rave reviews from fans and critics alike, picking up accolades including Favorite Touring Artist at the 2022 AMAs and Tour of The Year at the 2023 iHeartRadio Awards.
The band recently issued an update on the tour’s sustainability initiatives, revealing that, on a show-by-show comparison, their current tour has so far produced 47% less CO2e emissions than their previous stadium tour in 2016/17, and that more than 7 million trees have already been planted around the world (with one being planted for each concert goer).
On Thursday, Coldplay were named in TIME Magazine’s inaugural TIME100 Climate, a new list of the world’s most influential leaders driving real climate action.
The new dates are as follows:
OCTOBER 2024 30 – Melbourne, Marvel Stadium 31 – Melbourne, Marvel Stadium NOVEMBER 2024 6 – Sydney, Accor Stadium 7 – Sydney, Accor Stadium 13 – Auckland, Eden Park Coldplay will make a limited number of Infinity Tickets available for the shows at a later date.

They are restricted to a maximum of two tickets per purchaser, and must be bought in pairs (which will be located next to each other).
The band have also revealed their support acts for the shows will be PinkPantheress and Emmanuel Kelly.
DHL is the Official Logistics Partner of the Music Of The Spheres World Tour, supporting the band in their mission to cut the tour’s direct emissions by 50%.
As Australia’s greatest interstate sporting rivalry continues, NSW Police are urging footy fans to keep the competition family-friendly and behave responsibly ahead of this weekend’s grand finals.
The Newcastle Knights will be battling for back-to-back premierships, at Accor Stadium, Sydney Olympic Park, as they take on the Gold Coast Titans in the NRLW Grand Final, kicking off at 3.55pm tomorrow (Sunday 1 October 2023).
The Penrith Panthers will follow, in an attempt to carve their name into the history books in pursuit of a premiership three-peat, taking on the Brisbane Broncos in the NRL Grand Final, scheduled for a 7.30pm kick-off.
Police will conduct a high-visibility operation, comprising officers from across the South West Metropolitan Region assisted by specialist police to ensure the safety and security of officials, players and the anticipated 80,000-plus spectators who will be in attendance.
Gates will open at 1pm for preliminary matches and entertainment, and those attending are urged to arrive early.
Security guards will assist police in targeting troublemakers, anti-social behaviour, and alcohol-related crime at the stadium, and to ensure all fans get to and from the stadium safely.
Assistant Commissioner Stuart Smith said the police operation aims to ensure everyone’s Grand Final experience is enjoyable, memorable and free from any anti-social or criminal behaviour.
“While we expect the passion and emotions of the spectators to be heightened, please remember to be considerate of others and cheer on your teams respectfully,” Assistant Commissioner Smith said.
“Those who choose to act inappropriately will be dealt with promptly; this could mean ejection from the stadium and/or banning notices, with fines, or even criminal charges.
“Fans need to be considerate of others during post-match celebrations and, whether your team wins or loses, there is no excuse for violence, intimidation, or anti-social behaviour.” Assistant Commissioner Smith said.
As temperatures are expected to soar this weekend, coupled with a try-scoring-fest, Assistant Commissioner Smith urges game attendees to drink responsibly, as we don’t want anyone missing out on the live action.
“To everyone celebrating across the state, please ensure you are drinking plenty of water, wear sunscreen and seek shade during the day.
“Drink responsibly, know your limits, and keep an eye on your friends,” Assistant Commissioner Smith said.
To assist in avoiding disruption and disappointment, spectators are urged to plan their trip ahead of time and utilise public transport services. All tickets include travel to and from Olympic Park on public transport.
Motorists driving to Sydney Olympic Park are reminded to book their parking in advance and allow plenty of travel time and expect significant delays, particularly around the venue before and after the match.

It’s a warm, verging on a hot Friday morning at Accor Stadium and the dignitaries are fanning themselves with the event program and sweating in their suits. There are no complaints, though. Not today. For they’re here to honour a legend.
Chris Minns, the Premier of NSW, is here, with Jodie Harrison, Minister for Women, and Steve Kamper, Minister for Sport.
There’s David Gallop and Kerrie Mather, respectively chairman and chief of Venues NSW.
There’s Australia’s Olympic chief Matt Carroll and AOC President John Coates in a (wise) Panama hat.
Two-time Olympian Patrick Johnson is here. He once ran 9.93 for the hundred and remains Australia’s fastest-ever man.
Bruce McAvaney is here, too – he didn’t run for his country. But he could call sport for Australia.
And one famous Monday evening on September 25, 2000, he did, when upwards of 20 million eyeballs tuned in to see a famous hot lap of Stadium Australia.

Such was – and remains – the pulling power of our guest of honour, Australia’s 400-metre Sydney 2000 Olympics champion Catherine Astrid Salome Freeman, OAM, who’s here with her family to witness the unveiling of the Cathy Freeman Stand on the eastern side of Accor Stadium.
Typically for Freeman, she’s a touch non-plussed at all the fuss.
“I’m just a Kuku Yalanji woman, a Birri Gubba woman, who’s just taking each stride, doing my best to be me, making the most of life and opportunities, drawing inspiration from my family, from stories, from learning along the way,” she tells interviewer and close friend, McAvaney.
“But this is such an incredible day today.
“I’m so honoured, I’m almost speechless.”
Cathy Freeman and Chris Minns at the unveiling of the Cathy Freeman Stand at Accor Stadium. Pic: Ayush Kumar.
McAvaney assures her: “There won’t be a person in Australia that’s not smiling today, not one.”
There wasn’t one 23 years ago to the day when Freeman emerged in a fireproof white bodysuit to light the Olympic flame at the Sydney 2000 Opening Ceremony.
Ten days later, her win in the Olympic 400 metre final was the joyous pinnacle of the greatest feel-good fortnight Australia’s ever known.

Freeman’s dash today, like Shane Warne’s ‘Ball of the Century’, John Aloisi’s penalty goal and even Sam Kerr’s wonder strike against England, almost gets better with age.
Eyes turn to the Great Southern Screen, all 120 metres long of it, to watch a mash-up of vision of that famous race.
There are wide angles, close-ups, panoramas. McAvaney’s words are plastered 10 metres high across the screen.
And it’s like you’re back there watching afresh. Your arm hairs prickle. And you’re cheering her on: Go on Cathy. Go our girl.
Cathy Freeman beaming after the unveiling of the Cathy Freeman Stand at Accor Stadium. Pic: Ayush Kumar.
We see her shoot out the blocks, streaking around the track in that green-and-gold space-suit.
And there she goes, and she’s flying, leaning into the corners like a Ducati, equal parts pace, grace and power.
And you think: Man, she could move, Cathy Freeman. Her running style was beautiful. It seemed effortless.
It was the best in the world that fine night in Sydney, and we roared her home on the final turn and as she drew away in the last 40, 30, 20, 10 … gold.
You beauty.
Cathy Freeman and Bruce McAvaney relive that night in September, 2000. Pic: Ayush Kumar.
It took effort, of course. That was plain to see after she’d crossed the line and sat on her bum on the track, the suit’s hood off her head, arms resting on her knees, breathing like a bellows, oxygen like balm for her lungs.
Soon enough, though, she was up and dancing about, waving the flags of her country and of her people, this shy country kid, beaming for Australia, for her mum and dad and family, for herself.
What a night. What a ride she took us on, so many years in the making.
Cathy Freeman and Bruce McAvaney remember the 400m final of the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games. Pic: Ayush Kumar.
As McAvaney explains on stage, since running second in Atlanta to arch-rival Marie-José Pérec – the Frenchwoman who fled Sydney after seeing building-sized posters of Freeman on the skyscrapers outside her Darling Harbour hotel room – Freeman won 43 of her 44 races, the one loss in Oslo in ’98 when she was injured.
She was all we could talk about. For four years we looked forward to the 400-metre final, Freeman versus Perec versus the world.

McAvaney asks about her confidence on the night.
“In terms of percentages, it was mainly confidence,” she replies. “But there was also that human component, a feeling of fragility, of self-doubt.
“Talking to Warwick on the way here – sorry, Warwick, our driver – you just don’t know what’s going to happen in big sporting moments. Those not expected to do well can do well. And vice versa.
“There’s a side that’s deep within. I said to my coach before I left him, will you still love me if I don’t win.
“There’s a duality.”
A country girl at heart: Cathy Freeman was humbled and delighted with the unveiling of the Cathy Freeman Stand at Accor Stadium. Pic: Ayush Kumar.
Then she emerged onto the arena where 112,000 people roared her name.
And she flicked the switch. She moved from Cathy the barefoot kid from housing commission in Mackay to Cathy Freeman: athlete; arse-kicker; animal.
She was in her realm.
“Once I got out there and I was in my element, as sports people are, and I’m at the start line … you just switch on and the competitive juices start flowing,” she tells McAvaney. “And you’re so determined and very clear on what you need to do.
“I won’t swear – but you get very aggressive.
“I was born to be an Olympic champion.”
NSW Premier Chris Minns. Pic: Ayush Kumar.
And now, after a public process to name Australia’s greatest female athlete, the great state of NSW has named a great eastern stand after her.
Freeman is the first woman so-honoured in NSW.
Premier Minns tells media: “Everybody remembers where they were when Cathy Freeman produced her historic 400-metre race to win gold for Australia at the Sydney Olympics.
“I want the next generation of young girls to watch sport at this stadium, looking up at the Cathy Freeman Stand, thinking about their own sporting dreams.”

Blinding lights! Diamond certified and award-winning artist The Weeknd is locked in for Sydney’s Accor Stadium on Friday 24 November as part of his hugely successful After Hours Til Dawn Tour.
One of the hottest artists on the planet today, Abel Tesfaye (aka The Weeknd) will be joined on tour by special guests Mike Dean and Chxrry22, promoter Live Nation Entertainment has announced.
Tickets for the blockbuster Sydney show go on sale to the General Public at 12noon Friday 1 September, with pre-sales commencing Friday 25 August.
The tour celebrates The Weeknd’s 2020 album After Hours (its hit single Blinding Lights was named the new No.1 Billboard Hot 100 song of all time, surpassing Chubby Checker’s 1960 hit The Twist), as well as his critically-acclaimed album Dawn FM, which was released January 2022.
The After Hours Til Dawn Tour has been breaking attendance records around the world.
The tour recently broke London Stadium’s attendance record with 160,000 concertgoers across two nights. In Milan, The Weeknd sold over 159,000 tickets, making him the first artist to sell out two nights at Ippodromo La Maura.
In Paris, thousands of fans without tickets gathered outside the stadium to dance and partake regardless.
The next leg of The Weeknd’s celebrated global stadium tour will kick off Monday, November 20 in Brisbane at Suncorp Stadium, with stops across Australia and New Zealand.
All tickets and additional tour information will be available at TheWeeknd.com/tour.
United Nations World Food Program Goodwill Ambassador Abel “The Weeknd” Tesfaye will again partner with the U.N World Food Program to contribute funds from this next leg of the tour to the XO Humanitarian Fund, which supports the organisation’s response to the unprecedented global hunger crisis. More than $1 million was raised for the fund via ticket sales during the recently wrapped European leg of the tour.
The fund also raised money during the North American leg of the tour through ticket sales, proceeds from an exclusive tour T-shirt, and a $500,000 donation directly from The Weeknd.
The Weeknd’s corporate partners, tour venues, World Food Program USA board of directors and supporters also stepped up to contribute, as well as tour sponsor Binance, which contributed US$2 million to the fund. The first grant of $2 million will help provide emergency food and nutrition assistance to the most food-insecure regions of Ethiopia.
The After Hours Til Dawn Tour is brought to you by Binance, revolutionising the live entertainment industry with cutting-edge Web 3.0 technology. Binance users in Australia and New Zealand will have access to a special ticket presale for select shows, while supplies last.

Premier Chris Minns said: “This is a significant moment for women’s sport in Australia and globally and it’s fantastic that NSW locals and visitors are getting behind the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023 TM with such enthusiasm.
“We are so proud of the Matildas and know that they will feel the support and hear the cheers from right across Sydney and NSW when they take to the field on Saturday afternoon.”
Minister for Jobs and Tourism John Graham said: “The fan experience in Sydney for FIFA Women’s World Cup supporters is unparalleled. We have the most popular FIFA Fan Festival of all host cities, have sold the most tickets to matches on ground and local businesses and communities are coming together in celebration for every game.
“Now is the time to get behind the Matildas and this spectacular sporting phenomenon by coming down to Tumbalong Park, watching with friends at a public viewing event, gathering at a bar or club or simply cheering from home.”
Minister for Sport Steve Kamper said: “The interest in the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023 TM gives us great confidence about the future of football and women’s sport in NSW, with so many families and fans getting out to see these outstanding athletes in action.
“We will be ready to welcome the Matildas back to Sydney for the semi-final next week and to support them right through the tournament.”
