And it was all Yellow at Wembley Park...

The iconic Wembley steps have been painted a glorious shades of yellow to mark the band's 'residency' at Wembley Park. Giving fans the perfect photo opportunity and pre-show activity, the art installation coincides with the 25th anniversary of Coldplay's beloved hit single Yellow - first released as a single on June 26 2000 - and the group's epic 10-night run at Wembley Stadium.

Wembley Park tapped up leading experts at the Pantone Color Institute to create a colour journey across the neighbourhood’s Spanish Steps, drawing inspiration from the full emotional and melodic arc of the iconic song.

The Pantone Color Institute team matched each of the 58 steps to a specific shade of yellow using the Pantone Matching System™, starting with pale, muted tones and building to deeper, more luminous golds to reflect the song’s progression. Fans will find ‘Yellow 25’ installation located on Wembley Park’s Spanish Steps, a key pedestrian link between two of the UK’s most iconic live venues: Wembley Stadium and the OVO Arena Wembley (formerly Wembley Arena).

Official Merch

Keen to snap up some official Coldplay merch to mark this memorable occasion? You'll be given a clear plastic bag. If this is inside the stadium, then all good.

The 8th September performance isn’t just the last Wembley Coldplay show – it’s the end of the entire, three-year-long Music of the Spheres Tour.
