![Coldplay's Massive Glastonbury Crowd Leaves Audiences Stunned](https://maltadaily.mt/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/coldplay-website.jpg)
Fans were not only mesmerised by Coldplay’s rendition of their classic songs during their Glastonbury performance; they were also taken aback by the size of the audience, which may have surpassed previous festival attendance records. With hits like “Yellow” and “Paradise,” the band took the Pyramid Stage by storm. The sea of concertgoers supporting them was so dense that it was like being among Glastonbury’s biggest audiences ever.
A record-breaking crowd of over 100,000 people attended Elton John’s unforgettable set at the prestigious music festival last year. But Coldplay’s crowd this year looks ready to meet or surpass that threshold, which has many people at home in disbelief.
Surprised fans flooded social media with comments, one of which read, “That crowd for Coldplay… giving Elton a run for his money #glasto.” “The crowd is even bigger than I anticipated for Coldplay!” exclaimed a surprised viewer. What an amazing sight.”
Coldplay’s use of LED wristbands, which light up the crowd in coordinated colours during the performance to improve the visual experience, is partially responsible for the spectacle. This technological element has established itself as a signature of their live performances, adding to the ambiance and evoking memories of past historic Glastonbury events.
Although official attendance numbers are not yet available, the huge turnout of music fans during Coldplay’s fifth headline show highlights both the band’s ongoing appeal and the festival’s capacity to draw sizable attendance each year. Coldplay’s most recent headline performance at Glastonbury has definitely cemented their place in the festival’s illustrious history and reaffirmed their position as one of the best live acts in the world, as the celebration of music and community continues.
