Coldplay made history at the famous Glastonbury Festival as they dazzled the audience with their record-breaking fifth headline slot, surpassing the previous record held by The Cure. The British rock band, comprising Chris Martin, Jonny Buckland, Will Champion, and Guy Berryman, took the stage by storm, delivering a set that combined old fan favorites with previews of tracks from their upcoming album.

The iconic Pyramid Stage was set ablaze with lasers, fireworks, and an electric atmosphere as Coldplay performed hits like The Scientist, Yellow, Clocks, and Viva La Vida, sending the massive crowd into a frenzy. Joining the band on stage were surprise guests including rising star Little Simz, Burna Boy, and legendary Nigerian musician Femi Kuti for an electrifying debut of a new song speculated to be titled We Pray, part of their highly anticipated Moon Music album.

One of the most heartwarming moments of the night came when Back To The Future star Michael J Fox made a surprise appearance, rolling onto the stage in a wheelchair to the delight of fans. Martin, in a touching tribute, serenaded Fox with a personalized song, praising him as the “world’s greatest farmer” and expressing gratitude for his influence on the band. Fox, diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease, then joined Coldplay in a rendition of Fix You, showcasing his guitar skills much to the audience’s adoration.

Amidst the star-studded audience, Tom Cruise and other celebrities were spotted enjoying Coldplay’s performance, adding to the festival’s electric atmosphere. The night was filled with magic and surprises as the band further solidified their status as Glastonbury legends.
