Hotel room rates in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, have skyrocketed after British band Coldplay announced a planned show there. Social media users have been posting screenshots of the exorbitant costs on X. Shortly after Coldplay finishes their three gigs in Mumbai, the event is scheduled for January 25 at the Narendra Modi Stadium.
The Hotel Situation As A Result Of Coldplay
A number of hotels in Ahmedabad have seen their accommodation rates increase to more than Rs 50,000 per night on the concert date and in the days that follow. “No hotel in Ahmedabad for 24–25 January costs less than 50k,” wrote X user Spandana. Pro suggestion for Coldplay attendees: commute to Ahmedabad from Vadodara.
Another user, Priti Jain, posted a picture of a hotel in Ahmedabad with a nightly fee of Rs 53,200.
When even miles don’t come to rescue 😅😅

If you think you can get hotels in Ahd for good rates for the Coldplay concert on 25/26th Jan – FORGET IT!
Smart ppl booked hotels in Ahmedabad in September when Coldplay tix went live for Mumbai as there was speculation that the band could play in AHD too.

The 50,000 rs Nightly Cost
The majority of 5-star hotels are charging more than Rs 50,000 per night (excluding taxes) on the day of the Coldplay concert, according to a quick look at the website of online travel agency MakeMyTrip. In contrast, the majority of five-star hotel rooms cost between Rs 6,000 and Rs 20,000 per night on average on December weekends.
Some of the accommodations are still available at reasonable prices, even though the majority are sold out on the day of the Coldplay event.
Coldplay confirmed January 18, 19, and 21 2025 gigs in Mumbai before their show in Ahmedabad. After a nine-year break, Coldplay will be returning to India with this performance.
