Online ticketing platform BookMyShow has filed a formal FIR (first information report) against ticket reselling and black marketing for Coldplay’s “Music of the spheres world tour 2025” in India.
The company lodged the FIR on October 2, after an initial complaint was filed with the Mumbai Police on September 23, to address these concerns much before any formal complaint was raised against it.
“We remain vigilant in monitoring such instances of ticket reselling for this tour through black market channels and will continue to share all relevant information with the authorities to ensure appropriate action is taken. BookMyShow is assessing potential cancellation of such tickets that are being sold- unethically,” the spokesperson futher said.
The spokesperson reiterated the company’s opposition to ticket reselling, which is illegal and punishable by law in India, emphasising that the platform has no association with unauthorised ticket resellers. It also said that it is assessing the cancellation of tickets sold through unethical channels.
The company has also clarified that the Coldplay tour in India will take place as scheduled, refuting rumours suggesting otherwise.
