Coldplay, Imagine Dragons, and OneRepublic have officially announced what fans around the world have been waiting for — a groundbreaking 2026 World Tour that promises to bring together three of the most iconic stadium acts of our time. This historic collaboration is set to deliver soaring anthems, breathtaking visuals, and unforgettable nights of live music on a global scale.
The tour will kick off in March 2026, beginning in Los Angeles, California, at the legendary Rose Bowl Stadium. From there, the trio will continue their journey across North America with stops in New York City, Chicago, Toronto, and Mexico City, giving fans a chance to witness a spectacle of lights, sound, and raw energy. Each night will feature carefully crafted setlists that blend Coldplay’s euphoric melodies, Imagine Dragons’ electrifying power, and OneRepublic’s heartfelt songwriting.
In April, the tour will move across the Atlantic into Europe, opening with a massive show in London’s Wembley Stadium. From there, the bands will travel through Paris, Berlin, Madrid, and Rome, bringing their anthemic sound to some of the continent’s most iconic venues. Each stop is expected to sell out quickly, as the combination of these three acts guarantees an unparalleled live experience.
May will see the tour head further east, with performances in Dubai, Istanbul, and Mumbai, where Coldplay and Imagine Dragons both have a huge following, while OneRepublic’s popularity has been steadily growing. These shows are expected to blend global cultures with the universal language of music, creating moments that transcend borders and connect audiences.
By June, the journey continues into Asia, with major concerts in Tokyo, Seoul, Singapore, and Bangkok. Known for their grand stage productions, Coldplay in particular has always dazzled audiences in Asia, and this tour promises to raise the bar even higher with the combined artistry of all three bands. Fans can anticipate immersive visuals, pyrotechnics, and interactive elements that make each performance a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
July will see the groups arriving in Australia and New Zealand, performing in Sydney, Melbourne, and Auckland. These shows will carry a celebratory summertime vibe, with outdoor stadiums transforming into massive sing-along sessions under the stars. The bands have described this leg of the tour as a way to celebrate unity and joy, perfect for the vibrant energy of these cities.
In August, the world tour will sweep across South America, starting in Rio de Janeiro before hitting São Paulo, Buenos Aires, Santiago, and Bogotá. South American fans are known for their unmatched passion and energy, and the artists are preparing to deliver performances that meet and exceed that intensity. Expect massive crowds, glowing wristbands lighting up the night sky, and unforgettable audience participation.
The September leg will return the tour to North America for a second round of shows, including stops in Miami, Dallas, San Francisco, and Vancouver. This encore run will give fans who missed the earlier dates another chance to experience the magic, and it ensures that the tour leaves no major city untouched.
October will serve as the grand finale of the tour, with closing shows in Johannesburg and Cape Town, South Africa, marking a powerful end to a year of music, connection, and global celebration. Ending in Africa is both symbolic and significant, underscoring the tour’s message of unity and inclusivity through music.
With Coldplay’s transcendent soundscapes, Imagine Dragons’ thunderous energy, and OneRepublic’s emotional resonance, the 2026 World Tour will stand as one of the greatest musical journeys of the decade. Dates are confirmed, cities are revealed, and the countdown has officially begun — fans around the globe should prepare for a year where stadiums transform into temples of music, joy, and unforgettable memories.
