Coldplay’s 6-day concert boosts demand for accommodation in Singapore

Data from Agoda showed that searches for accommodation in the Lion City surged 8.7x.

The sky is full of stars for Singapore’s hoteliers as searches for accommodations in the city state rose by 8.7x in anticipation of Coldplay’s six-day concert in January 2024.

According to Agoda, the surge is driven mainly by Malaysia and Indonesia. Searches also increased from travellers from the Philippines, Brunei, the United States, and Thailand.

Meanwhile, the booking platform also believes that the Lion City will also get more travellers from Hong Kong, Australia, Vietnam, India, and many other markets.

“The significant upswing aligns with ticket releases for the highly anticipated six-day Coldplay concert series, demonstrating the undeniable power of music as a major travel motivator. With six shows, Singapore will be the main stop in Asia during Coldplay’s ‘Music of the Spheres World Tour,” Agoda said.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
