The English band will play in Naples on 21 And 22 June and in Milan on 25, 26, 28 And 29 June. Sold out for all dates in a few hours and clogged online ticket offices
“They come too rarely to Italy, they have skipped our country countless times on previous tours and therefore, over the years, an incredible number of people have accumulated who want to see them live “. The journalist and music critic Ernesto Assante tells Adnkronos about the series of concerts that Coldplay, the famous English pop band, will do in Naples and Milan in June of 2023. More than 280.000 tickets sold. All the dates sold out in a few hours and online ticket offices are clogged. Never before has any international artist performed so many concerts at San Siro during a single tour. The band led by Chris Martin will play at the Meazza stadium next time 25, 26, 28 And 29 June, after the two dates (21 And 22) by Diego Armando Maradona of Naples.
According to Assante, in addition to the shortage of dates in Italy, the wait for the arrival in the country of Coldplay is also due to the fact that “there is no pop band more ‘popular’ than them. During their 22 years of career have done a little bit of everything, adopting a Beatlesian approach in all their records. Research, refinement but also extreme popularity: these are the ingredients at the base of their success “.
The music critic concludes by reiterating that the third and last element not to be underestimated is their music, capable of “expressing a absolute and unattainable joy, something that many others cannot keep at their same level. An emotion that, after two years of pandemic, people who love concerts want to come back to life “.
