Coldplay performed thrice in Mumbai earlier this month as part of their Music of the Spheres World Tour. The Ahmedabad concert, which was held at the expansive Narendra Modi Stadium, was the biggest ticketed event ever hosted in India.
The biggest concert Coldplay had done prior to the Ahmedabad show was in Sydney, Australia, where 83,000 people attended the event. For the Ahmedabad performance, though, the attendance was 1.3 lakh.
About Maha Kumbh
Maha Kumbh is the largest religious congregation in the world, where thousands of saints perform their rituals at the Sangam, whereas nearly 45 crores of devotees gather for holy dips. Such an immense crowd surpasses other major events that exist in the whole world in terms of size; this includes the Rio Carnival, which draws 70 lakh, and Germany’s Oktoberfest, where around 72 lakh people gather on a single day.
