Coldplay in Cardiff 2023: Who is the support at the Principality Stadium gigs?

Coldplay are back in Cardiff after a long six years, with their Music of the Spheres tour, and are performing at the Principality Stadium. But what acts are supporting the band known for their vibrant and colourful shows?

Chris Martin, Jonny Buckland, Guy Berryman and Will Champion perform Music of the Spheres over two nights on Tuesday, June 6 and Wednesday, June 7, and thousands of people will descend on the city to put on their now-famous twinkly wristbands, bounce huge colourful balls off their heads and probably a special guest with a Welsh connection (fingers crossed).

We have the support act details below if you are attending the gig and need to know more.

Who are Coldplay's support act?

Coldplay's gigs in Cardiff will see two acts warm up the crowd ahead of the big guns - CHVRCHES and Welsh singer Hana Lili.

Formed in Glasgow in 2011, CHVRCHES broke out with their debut single The Mother We Share Across their four UK top 10 albums, the band have amassed over 234 million UK streams and 1.7 billion global streams to date. Their most recent, 2021 album Screen Violence' saw widespread acclaim.

In 2022 they have returned with single, Over which sees them team up with producer-songwriter Oscar Holter (The Weeknd, Charli XCX, Coldplay and BTS) for a soaring, alt-pop anthem.

Also on the bill is Hana who is a self-produced indie pop artist and songwriter who learned how to produce songs in her bedroom.

She recently released her EP Existential, along with its titular track. Hana explains: “The EP follows the evolution of being happy with my own solitude. It’s a chronological journey and it's an honest account from the stark loneliness of the summer months, reconnecting with friends, fixing relationships, learning to be alone and questioning everything, even our existence. Writing songs has always been an outlet for me, and feels more like a need than a want.”
