COLDPLAY CONCERT IN AHMEDABAD CAUSES HOTEL PRICE SURGE
Ahmedabad, Gujarat - The highly anticipated Coldplay concert in Ahmedabad has sparked a significant surge in hotel prices, with many establishments charging upwards of ₹50,000 per night. The band's fourth concert date on January 25, 2025, at the Narendra Modi Stadium has led to an overwhelming demand for accommodations, particularly as they prepare for three additional shows in Mumbai.
Hotels in Ahmedabad are now averaging between ₹40,000 and ₹70,800 per night, significantly higher than usual rates during peak seasons. The surge is not limited to luxury hotels; even budget options have seen a hike, with some two-star and three-star hotels charging around ₹7,000 per night.
On social media, frustrated travelers are sharing their disappointment over the inflated prices. Some fans have even suggested staying in nearby Vadodara and commuting to Ahmedabad to avoid the steep hotel costs.
The rise in accommodation prices reflects a broader trend of price increases across the hospitality sector in response to heightened demand driven by major events like Coldplay's concert.
Coldplay's concert is expected to draw an audience of approximately 100,000 fans, making it one of the largest stadium shows in their career. Tickets will go on sale on November 16 at 12 PM, with prices starting from around ₹2,000 for "Infinity Tickets" that allow buyers to secure up to two tickets next to each other.
While hotel prices are soaring, the influx of visitors is expected to provide a significant boost to Ahmedabad's local economy. Hoteliers and business owners are optimistic about the revenue generated from the event, with some even announcing special promotions and events tailored to concert-goers.
As the excitement surrounding Coldplay's concert builds up, one thing is clear: this event promises to be an unforgettable experience for both fans and the local community.
