Chris Martin has revealed that Coldplay will not release anymore music after 2025.
Appearing on BBC Radio 2’s Christmas show with Jo Wiley, he revealed that they would “only tour” after releasing their final album.
He also suggested that they would still do some “collaborative things” but that the “Coldplay catalogue finishes there”.
It comes after Coldplay released their ninth album, Music Of The Spheres, earlier this year, which went on to reach number one in the UK album charts.
Whiley teased the announcement during fellow presenter Zoe Ball’s radio show on Wednesday morning, ahead of the full Christmas special with Martin airing on Thursday evening.

Speaking to Whiley, Martin said: “Our last proper record will come out at the end of 2025.
“And I think after that we’ll only tour.
“And maybe we’ll do some sort of collaborative things, but the Coldplay catalogue, as it were, finishes there.”
Whiley told Ball on the morning radio show that while Martin can be “disarmingly honest”, he is also very funny, and that she is “never quite sure whether he’s joking or whether he has been deadly serious”.

However, the radio host clarified that she asked the singer if he was joking and he confirmed he was serious that 2025 would be the last year they will record music as a band.
Whiley added: “It’s all obviously all part of a plan that he has always had.”
The band were also recently nominated for group of the year and best rock/alternative act for the 2022 Brit Awards.
The group, which consists of frontman Martin, Jonny Buckland, Guy Berryman, Will Champion and Phil Harvey, released their first studio album Parachutes in 2000.
During their career, they have produced nine UK number one albums and won a plethora of awards, including nine Brit Awards and seven Grammy Awards.
