Coldplay’s Chris Martin and Jonny Buckland are set to play a highly special and intimate acoustic performance at Hackney Church in London on Wednesday, December 3rd. The exclusive show is being held to raise crucial funds for two vital charities: Crisis and War Child.
Win Tickets to an Unforgettable Night
Tickets for this one-off event are being offered exclusively through a prize draw, which is officially open now at cldp.ly/hackney25.
Fans have until 11:59 PM (GMT) on Monday, November 17th, to enter. A total of 150 winners will be randomly selected to each receive a pair of strictly non-transferable tickets. Winners will be notified the following week, and photo ID will be required for entry to ensure transparency and fairness.
Supporting Crucial Causes
All proceeds generated from the prize draw will be split between Crisis and War Child, supporting their urgent work during the challenging winter period.
Crisis, the national charity for people experiencing homelessness, will use the funds to deliver life-changing services across Britain. Chief Executive Matt Downie noted that over 300,000 households will be without a home this Christmas, making the need for warmth, kindness, and support more critical than ever.
War Child will direct the funds towards providing emergency aid, specialist mental health support, and safe spaces for children whose lives have been devastated by war. Rich Clarke, Head of Music at War Child UK, stressed the urgency, stating that millions of children face "bitter cold, hunger, and displacement," and support from the draw will help provide them with "warmth, safety, and hope."
The special show follows the duo’s successful performance at Hackney Church last year, which alone raised over £350,000 for Crisis. This new collaboration promises another spectacular evening, combining the magic of their music with the power of philanthropy to make a real difference this Christmas and beyond.
