Chris Martin and Jonny Buckland Announce Intimate London Charity Christmas Gig

Coldplay’s Chris Martin and Jonny Buckland are set to host an intimate charity concert in London next month. This event aims to support two important organizations, Crisis and War Child.

Event Details

The concert will take place at Hackney Church on Wednesday, December 3. This venue has been significant for the band, as they previously performed festive shows there in 2011 and 2015. Last year, Martin and Buckland managed to raise over £350,000 for Crisis in merely two days.

Charity Beneficiaries

Crisis: A charity that assists the homeless in Britain by offering life-changing services.
War Child: An organization dedicated to protecting and educating children affected by conflict.

Ticket Information

Tickets for the charity gig will be available through a prize draw, which started recently and will close at 11:59 PM GMT on November 17. A total of 150 winners will be chosen randomly, with each receiving a pair of tickets.

Winners must provide photo identification to gain entry, as tickets will not be transferable.

Coldplay’s Current Status

Coldplay currently has no other scheduled live performances, having just wrapped the “Music Of The Spheres” tour. This tour was marked by a record-setting headline performance at Glastonbury 2024 and grossed over $1 billion, making it one of the highest-grossing rock tours in history.

During a concert at London’s Wembley Stadium, Martin revealed plans for the band’s future, indicating that after a break, they would announce new shows for 2027.

Upcoming Projects

Chris Martin hinted at an exciting project the band has been developing over the years, which may relate to their eventual plans to complete 12 studio albums. The next release is anticipated to be a musical. As the band progresses, they’re preparing for a potential return to the studio for their next album, likely in 2026 or 2027.

This charity concert is an unmissable opportunity for fans and supporters to engage with the band while contributing to crucial causes. For more updates, stay tuned to El-Balad.
