Coldplay have released the visually spectacular music video for their latest ‘Music of the Spheres’ single ‘Humankind,’ along with what seems to be subtle hints to locations for their next tour.

Filmed at Coldplay’s four sold-out concerts in front of a combined 260,000 fans at Foro Sol in Mexico City back in April, the ‘Humankind’ video was directed by Stevie Rae Gibbs and James Marcus Haney.

Capturing Coldplay in their kaleidoscopic live glory, the video features spectacular fireworks, swooping shots of fans lighting up the stadium, and close-up clips of Chris Martin, Johnny Buckland, Guy Berryman and Will Champion on stage.

Coldplay have been playing several gigs at Wembley, before they go on to play two nights at Glasgow’s Hampden Park next week.

Whilst in London they have welcomed on stage special guests Craig David, who performed some of his classic songs, Natalie Imbruglia who sang 'Torn', and paid tribute to Olivia Newton-John with 'Summer Nights', followed by All Saints singer Shaznay Lewis.

After Glasgow, Coldplay will head back to Latin America for a run of dates which concludes in spectacular style with ten sold out nights at Estadio River Plate in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
