'Still won't find a ticket...': Coldplay fans experience a déjà vu as tickets to band's 2nd Ahmedabad concert sell out within minutes

Coldplay's upcoming concert in Ahmedabad on January 25, 2025, sold out within minutes of tickets going live, prompting ticketing platform BookMyShow to add a second show on January 26, 2025.

However, fans were left disappointed once again as the second set of tickets also sold out just as quickly.

The tickets for Coldplay's highly anticipated concert at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Motera, Ahmedabad, became available on BookMyShow at noon on Saturday, but demand was overwhelming, with online queues reportedly numbering in the lakhs.


As soon as the first show sold out, a notification appeared on the platform at 12:30 pm informing fans that a second show would be added, with ticket sales for the new date starting at 1 pm.

Despite this, the second batch of tickets also sold out within minutes, leaving many fans venting their frustration on social media.

“I’m exhausted,” one fan posted on X, as others shared similar sentiments.






This is set to be Coldplay’s fourth concert in India, following their previously announced shows in Mumbai in January 2025.

The band, known for their chart-topping hits and massive global following, will perform at the 1.32 lakh-capacity Narendra Modi Stadium. The announcement of the second Ahmedabad show makes these concerts, with a potential audience of 1,00,000 fans, Coldplay's biggest to date.

The band's India tour, which includes multiple performances at DY Patil Sports Stadium in Navi Mumbai, has generated immense interest, causing both excitement and frustration among fans.

In light of the overwhelming demand and reports of unauthorized resales, the Enforcement Directorate has launched an investigation into the alleged illegal sale of tickets, which had been sold at inflated prices on secondary platforms.
