The general sale for both Wembley and Hull will begin at 9am BST on Friday, September 27 with presale, for those who have pre-ordered the album, the day before.
The band will play Hull on August 18 and 19 2025 before Wembley on August 22, 23, 26, 27, 30 and 31.
Mark Davyd, CEO of Music Venue Trust said: ‘Coldplay are the perfect example of a UK band who came through the grassroots circuit on their way to worldwide stadium-filling success.
‘It’s fantastic to see them celebrating their own pathway to Wembley by giving back to the grassroots music venues that supported them and recognising the artists and promoters that are struggling more than ever to build their own careers.
‘Through our partnership with Save Our Scene – who introduced us to Coldplay last year – this money will go directly into work that ensures communities right across the country will continue to have access to great live music on their doorstep.
‘The band’s support really will stop venues closing, make tours happen and bring the joy of live music to thousands of people.
‘After months of discussing Coldplay’s potential support around these UK shows with them, we’re so happy and grateful that the news is finally out there!’
Coldplay are reportedly paying a seven-figure sum to their former manager Dave Holmes, after he sued the band for £10 million.
The band will play Hull on August 18 and 19 2025 before Wembley on August 22, 23, 26, 27, 30 and 31.
The band parted ways with Dave back in 2022 after over two decades, sparking a dramatic and lengthy legal battle.
In 2023, Dave claimed he was owed £10million in unpaid commission for Coldplay’s tenth and eleventh albums, which are both yet to be released.
However, the band, led by frontman Chris Martin, countersued for £14million, claiming Holmes lost control of budgeting for their Music of the Spheres tour, and overspent by £17.5million.
Documents filed at London’s High Court, obtained by The Sun, stated that Coldplay agreed an undisclosed seven-figure settlement to prevent private details being made public in court.
A source added: ‘Chris and the band are happy they’ve drawn a line in the sand but it has come at a price. The settlement cost them millions. They just want to move on.’
Since Dave’s departure, Chris’ best friend, Phil Harvey, who helped fund their first recording and was then known as the band’s fifth member, has stepped in to lead their management team.
MailOnline has contacted representatives for Coldplay for comment.
Last year, Coldplay’s legal battle with their former manager took a dramatic turn, when Dave accused the band of ‘making up’ tales of mishaps and ‘ethical lapses.’

Holmes told MailOnline that he believe the British group led by Chris Martin ‘knew they were in trouble,’ after the countersued for £14 million.
Hitting back at the writ, a spokesman for Mr Holmes told MailOnline in October: ‘Coldplay knows they’re in trouble with their defence.
‘Accusing Dave Holmes of non-existent ethical lapses and other made-up misconduct will not deflect from the real issue at hand: Coldplay had a contract with Dave, they are refusing to honour it and they need to pay Dave what they owe him’.
Coldplay believed that its tour suffered spiralling costs due to Mr Holmes.
