You can get an Infinity Ticket to see Coldplay at Stanford. Here’s how.

Nov. 19, 2024, 6:00 a.m.

As Stanford Stadium prepares to welcome Coldplay this spring, Stanford students will be eligible to purchase $20 tickets this week to attend the concert. The band offers these reduced-price Infinity Tickets in an effort to increase accessibility to their “Music of the Spheres” World Tour, set to stop by campus on May 31 and June 1 of 2025. 

Stanford Live and Stanford Athletics secured a limited number of Infinity Tickets and are working on additional ticket opportunities, to be announced in 2025.

To receive a chance to purchase Infinity Tickets, Stanford students can enter a lottery that opens at 6 a.m. PST on Tuesday and closes at 8 a.m. PST on Thursday, a date set in order to abide by the ticket sale timeline arranged by the tour. Lottery selections are randomly made and winners will receive an email by end-of-day on Thursday.

Upon receiving the email, each student is limited to a maximum of two Infinity Tickets for either day’s show. Tickets must be purchased in adjacent pairs of seats, with locations that may vary greatly across the concert venue. Seat placements are revealed on the day of the performance, when attendees go to the box office to pick up tickets. 

Further instructions to enter the lottery can be found at the Stanford event ticketing site.

The British pop rock band began their most recent and eighth concert tour in March 2022 and is scheduled to conclude performances in September 2025. Tickets for 2025 tour dates officially went on sale this year on Friday through the Ticketmaster website

In July of 2000, the ensemble debuted with “Parachutes,” which remains their most popular album to date, at 13 million sold. Coldplay has since produced 10 albums, which includes their most recent “Moon Music,” released on Oct. 4 of this year — a week before the artists added 2025 concert dates to their world tour.
