Coldplay had announced that they would be performing in Mumbai as part of their Music of the Spheres World Tour.

The fans who were willing to attend the concert, which is scheduled to take place on January 18 and 19, 2025, at Navi Mumbai's D Y Patil Stadium, weren't able to book the tickets.

The annoyed fans took to X and expressed their disappointment. An X user wrote, "wtf @bookmyshow how is it still showing coming soon when its 12:04 PM? No chance of getting Coldplay tickets since the app is also down #BookMyShow #Coldplay #Coldplayindia (sic)."

Some also came up with funny memes mocking the ticket booking platform.

Another social media user wrote, "To get sold out on Coldplay was acceptable, To not be able to Log in was not, This is pathetic for attending my favorite band only for BMS to sell it to hackers and bots. They didn't even worry about the server, Why did you decide to host the ticket sale ffs #BookMyShow (sic)."

Another X post read, "Never understood why on earth #BookMyShow is choosen as the ticketing partner for bookings. They did mess up with world cup tickets, and now cold play scene. App crashed (sic)."

The ticket prices for Coldplay's concert start from the range of Rs 2,500 to Rs 12,500.

The band, formed in 1997 in London, consists of vocalist and pianist Chris Martin, guitarist Jonny Buckland, bassist Guy Berryman, drummer and percussionist Will Champion and manager Phil Harvey.
