How to get first dibs on that Coldplay in Manila ticket

As many fans know by now, Coldplay will not be performing in November of this year. Instead, the “Head Full of Dreams” tour will happen in 2017. With 4 months left in the year, we should all start getting ready for a once in a lifetime experience, but how?

START SAVING UP SOME CASH, BUT HOW MUCH?

We’re making a guess-timate based on 2 factors:

1. Venue

According to Inquirer Lifestyle, both Coldplay and U2 have been booked by promoters at SM MOA Arena.

2. Artist comparison

Coldplay is an old soul favorite who has achieved commercial international success during the 2000s with hits like “Yellow”, “The Scientist”, “Viva La Vida”, and “Fix You”. To make a comparison, we can peg Maroon 5 and Taylor Swift, two artists who have enjoyed similar success. Both also performed at MOA Arena, and have visited 2-3 times.
