The performance will mark Coldplay's first in London since 2016, when they played four sold out nights at Wembley Stadium as part of their A Head Full of Dreams world tour.
Exclusive access to tickets will be given to UK fans we pre-order, or have already pre-ordered, the band's Everyday Life album from the official Coldplay store before 11.59pm on Thursday 21 November.
The special gig will be the only UK date during their Everyday Life era.
