In an unexpected twist at Marvel Stadium, Coldplay’s lead vocalist Chris Martin briefly vanished from view after accidentally stepping into a hole on stage. The incident, which took place during the final performance of the band’s Melbourne leg for the Music of the Spheres world tour, had fans in awe and concern—until Martin quickly resurfaced with a good-humored acknowledgment.
While walking around and engaging with fans between songs, Martin’s misstep was captured in a now-viral video. As he disappeared into the hole, a quick-thinking crew member below helped to break his fall. Martin quickly regained his composure, joking, “That’s uh, not planned. Thank you for catching me, so much,” and adding with a smile, “Holy sh*t, that was nearly a YouTube moment.”
Despite the unplanned mishap, Martin seamlessly resumed the concert, demonstrating his professionalism and stage presence to an enthusiastic crowd. This show concluded Coldplay’s successful series of performances in Melbourne, although it came with a setback—bassist Guy Berryman was unable to attend due to illness, marking the first time in Coldplay’s history that the band performed without all four members on stage.
With Melbourne in the rearview mirror, Coldplay is now headed to Sydney for four dates, followed by shows in Auckland. The Music of the Spheres tour is scheduled to conclude with ten shows at London’s Wembley Stadium, starting August 2025.
