Coldplay – a success story
With global sales of almost 80 million, Coldplay, consisting of Chris Martin, Jonny Buckland, Will Champion and Guy Berryman, is one of the most successful bands of our time. They shot to fame in 2000 with their first album, “Parachutes” and subsequent records have seen the group develop into one of the biggest and most acclaimed in the world . Their sixth and latest album “Ghost Stories” continues to evolve their vision and has been hailed by many as their best work yet.
Events at BMW Welt
BMW Welt organizes and hosts a wide-ranging program of events from the worlds of culture, art and entertainment. The concept is based on the different brands which send out invitations to their own events, such as the BMW Welt Jazz Award and the MINI Club Series. The Event Forum makes BMW Welt a popular location for up to 450 external events each year with more than 45,000 guests attending congresses, seminars, film premieres and award ceremonies. It is also regularly used for special concerts such as the opening concerts for the Long Night of Music in Munich and the exclusive appearance of two-time Grammy winner Frank Ocean last year. In 2013, BMW Welt was presented with the Location Award as the best design location in Germany.
