Coldplay had a special opening act for their only Canadian show on their world tour.
The popular band announced a series of West Coast dates for its "Music of the Spheres" world tour earlier this year, with concerts at BC Place on Sept. 22 and 23.
Earlier this month, Coldplay announced that it will be selling a limited amount of discounted tickets for $20. The cheap tickets are called and are available for every concert on their tour. Sadly many Vancouver fans were left frustrated and disappointed after the ultra-cheap Infinity Tickets went on sale.
Coldplay opened their Friday (Sept. 22) evening show with a land acknowledgement by youth representatives of x史m蓹θk史蓹y虛蓹m (Musqueam), S岣祑x瘫wú7mesh (Squamish), and s蓹lilw蓹ta涩 (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. It was the first time that the three Nations have taken the stage to welcome a band and open a concert at BC Place.
The Musqueam, Squamish, and Tsleil-Waututh Nations will take the stage again tonight (Sept. 23) for Coldplay's second 麻豆传媒映画concert, which has an expected attendance of over 40,000 people (same as Friday's crowd).
This milestone comes a week ahead of National Day for Truth and Reconciliation on Sept. 30.
great work
