It’s Official: Coldplay & Ed Sheeran Confirm 2026 Co-Headlining Tour — Setlist Teasers, Dates, and Cities Revealed
In a move that has sent shockwaves across the global music scene, Coldplay and Ed Sheeran have officially confirmed their long-rumored 2026 Co-Headlining World Tour, marking one of the most anticipated live collaborations in modern music history. Titled “Hearts Full of Sky,” the monumental tour promises to blend two generations of heartfelt songwriting, anthemic performances, and global unity through sound.
The announcement came early Wednesday morning via a synchronized post across both artists’ social media channels. The short but electrifying teaser video featured a rising sun over a massive crowd as snippets of “Fix You” merged seamlessly with “Perfect” — hinting at a potential onstage collaboration that already has fans in tears. The video ended with a glowing message: “The world sings together, 2026.”
According to official tour organizers, “Hearts Full of Sky” will kick off in June 2026 at London’s Wembley Stadium, before heading to Paris, Berlin, New York, Los Angeles, Tokyo, São Paulo, and over 30 cities worldwide. Each stop promises a unique musical journey, blending Coldplay’s cosmic stage visuals with Ed Sheeran’s raw acoustic intimacy — a balance that fans have long dreamed of experiencing in one unforgettable night.
Setlist teasers have also surfaced, sparking feverish speculation among fans. Coldplay is reportedly preparing to bring back classics like “The Scientist,” “Viva La Vida,” “A Sky Full of Stars,” and “Adventure of a Lifetime,” alongside new material from their forthcoming farewell-era album. Ed Sheeran, meanwhile, is said to be reworking timeless hits like “Shape of You,” “Thinking Out Loud,” and “Bad Habits” with orchestral and collaborative arrangements designed to blend seamlessly into Coldplay’s signature soundscape.
Insiders claim the tour will feature joint performances, including new duets written exclusively for this run — one rumored track titled “Light Over London” is already trending online after a brief audio clip leaked during rehearsals. Fans can expect immersive visuals, eco-friendly stage designs powered by renewable energy, and interactive wristbands that light up in sync with the music — continuing Coldplay’s tradition of sustainability and fan connection.
Tickets for the Hearts Full of Sky Tour are set to go on sale November 15, 2025, with presales available to verified fans a week earlier. Given both artists’ record-breaking histories, early projections suggest the tour could become one of the highest-grossing live events of the decade.
As the world braces for this unprecedented musical union, one thing is clear — 2026 will belong to Coldplay and Ed Sheeran, two modern legends joining forces to remind humanity that love, light, and melody still have the power to bring us all together.
