Coldplay frontman **Chris Martin** has officially announced a brand-new **2026 world tour**, and it’s shaping up to be the **biggest chapter in the band’s history**. Titled **“Light Beyond”**, the tour will span an astonishing **130 cities across six continents**, marking Coldplay’s most ambitious global journey to date.
The announcement was made earlier today via the band’s social channels, accompanied by a cinematic teaser featuring crowds from past shows, glowing wristbands lighting up stadiums, and Martin’s voice promising *“a tour for everyone, everywhere.”* According to the statement, the tour is designed to reach more fans than ever before, including cities and countries the band has never played.
The **Light Beyond World Tour** is scheduled to kick off in **March 2026**, beginning in **South America**, before moving through **North America, Europe, Africa, Asia, and Australia**, with dates running well into **late November 2026**. Major stadiums, iconic open-air venues, and select intimate locations are all expected to feature on the massive routing.
Musically, the tour will celebrate Coldplay’s entire career — from early classics like *Yellow* and *Clocks* to global anthems such as *Viva La Vida*, *Fix You*, and *A Sky Full of Stars*. The band also teased **new music set for release in 2025**, which will be performed live for the first time on this tour.
Sustainability remains at the heart of Coldplay’s live vision. Building on the success of their previous eco-friendly tours, the 2026 run will feature **solar-powered stages, kinetic dance floors, reduced carbon logistics**, and partnerships with environmental organizations in every region.
Fans worldwide have already flooded social media with excitement, many calling it *“the tour of a lifetime.”* With 130 cities confirmed and more surprises promised, **Coldplay’s 2026 world tour is set to redefine what a global live experience can be**.
