The Music of the Spheres World Tour (2022–2025) by British rock band Coldplay had a widely documented environmental, cultural and economic impact, which further emphasised their influence on entertainment. Regarded as "the greatest live music show that humans have yet devised" by ''The Times'',<ref name="BEAUMONT">{{Cite web |date=25 August 2022 |title=How It Became Cool to Like Coldplay |url=https://www.thetimes.com/culture/music/article/coldplay-stadium-tour-how-they-became-cool-928dd6n93 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240604035730/https://www.thetimes.com/culture/music/article/coldplay-stadium-tour-how-they-became-cool-928dd6n93 |archive-date=4 June 2024 |access-date=2 April 2023 |website=The Times |url-access=subscription}}</ref> it became the most-attended tour in history and the first by a group to earn $1 billion in revenue.<ref>{{Cite magazine |date=29 May 2025 |title=Coldplay Is Back on Top for April's Boxscore Report with $67.4 Million Earned |url=https://www.billboard.com/pro/coldplay-tour-top-april-2025-boxscore-report/ |url-status=live |archive-url=http://web.archive.org/web/20260110075929/https://www.billboard.com/pro/coldplay-tour-top-april-2025-boxscore-report/ |archive-date=10 January 2026 |access-date=29 May 2025 |magazine=Billboard}}</ref> The concert run also marked a return to live performance for the band after the COVID-19 pandemic and its extensive media coverage contributed to a shift in public perception of the group.<ref name="BEAUMONT" />
When announcing the initial dates, Coldplay revealed a sustainability plan to reduce their CO<sub>2</sub> emissions by 50% compared to the Head Full of Dreams Tour (2016–2017). These plans encompassed developing new LED stage products and partnering with BMW to create the first rechargeable mobile show battery in the world. However, the battery initiative and the selection of Neste as their biofuel supplier drew accusations of greenwashing. Nevertheless, the group managed to reduce their carbon footprint by 59% and planted over 9 million trees. ''Pollstar'' stated that they ushered into "a new era of sustainable touring",<ref>{{Cite web |date=20 October 2021 |title=Coldplay's Greener Pastures: With Music of the Spheres, One of the Most Successful Touring Bands Ever Kicks Off a New Era of Sustainable Touring |url=https://news.pollstar.com/2021/10/20/coldplays-greener-pastures-with-music-of-the-spheres-one-of-the-most-successful-touring-bands-ever-kicks-off-a-new-era-of-sustainable-touring-2/ |url-status=live |archive-url=http://web.archive.org/web/20251209135008/https://news.pollstar.com/2021/10/20/coldplays-greener-pastures-with-music-of-the-spheres-one-of-the-most-successful-touring-bands-ever-kicks-off-a-new-era-of-sustainable-touring-2/ |archive-date=9 December 2025 |access-date=25 September 2023 |website=Pollstar}}</ref> while ''Time'' ranked them among the most influential climate action leaders.
Demand for the shows was unprecedented, breaking records and luring ticketless fans outside venues in cities such as Barcelona, Kuala Lumpur, Munich and El Paso. Seismologists in Berlin and Kaohsiung reported tremors due to audience activity. Issues concerning ticket touting, event documentation and scheduling prompted legislative reforms in multiple countries. Tour stops experienced a financial boost in commerce, hospitality and public transport as well. Regions including Argentina, Singapore, Ireland and the United Kingdom saw broader macroeconomic effects. Controversy arose at times, most notably surrounding an affair scandal in the United States. Coldplay's discography also had a resurgence in sales and streams, impacting record charts worldwide. To foster philanthropic activities, the band partnered with Global Citizen and the Love Button Global Movement.
