Coldplay have unveiled details of a lengthy North American tour which will carry the band right into the summer of 2012.
The dates will take place both before and after the band’s previously announced European tour, which includes a series of massive stadium shows in the UK, and is due to kick off on April 17th next year in Canada at the AB Rexall Place, Edmonton. Two further Canadian gigs will follow ahead of a first US stop at Portland’s Rose Garden Arena on April 24th.
An undoubted highlight for the remainder of the tour, which will close at the Xcel Energy Centre on August 11th, will be their two nights at the Hollywood Bowl in May.
