Globally renowned rockers Coldplay are coming to Cardiff's Principality Stadium very soon, making Wales' capital the only place in the UK where fans can catch the band's A Head Full of Dreams Tour this year.
The show marks only the third ever Welsh performance by the best-selling band in their 18-year career history, but they've more in common with this country than you might expect.
Here's our round up of all the links that make Wales Coldplay's natural home...
1. Jonny Buckland is actually from here
The lead guitarist and co-founder of Coldplay might have been born in Islington, but it's Wales he calls home.
The Buckland family moved to Pantymwyn when Jonny was just four and it was there that he grew into the rock star we all know and love.
2. There's specially donated gold disc in Pantymwyn Village Hall
In 2012 Buckland made a VERY special donation to his Flintshire home town.
When Pantymwyn Village Hall was in need of a restoration in 2012, Jonny donated a gold disc to the town. The disc commemorated Coldplay's then new album, Mylo Xyloto, hitting 100,000 sales.
Chris Johnson, Chair of the Village Hall Committee, said at the time: “This is an incredibily generous donation from a very special son of Pantymwyn.”
The disc sold for £562 at auction and the hall stands to this day.
3. Yellow was inspired by the Welsh night sky
Yellow gave Coldplay their first (of many) top 10 singles back in 2000.
The song was written at Rockfield Studios and it was a cloudless Welsh night's sky that inspired the lyric: "Look at the stars, look how they shine for you," penned after the band looked up during recording.
4. Coldplay were supposed to play at the Millenium Stadium back in 2001, but didn't – here's why...
Michael Eavis, the founder of Glastonbury Festival, had organised a FarmAid concert to raise funds for those suffering from the Foot and Mouth disaster.
Coldplay were among the headliners lined up for the event, which was to be held in Cardiff's own Millennium Stadium. The fundraiser was called off however after 9/11 terrorist attacks in America.
5. Billions watched a Bridgend clarinet player perform with the band in London 2012
Lloyd Coleman was a part of Charles Hazlewood's British Paraorchestra, who played with Coldplay at the closing ceremony of 2012's London Paralympic Games.
Coleman, who is partially deaf and blind, was on the clarinet and described the band as "incredibly kind and incredibly open."
6. Their former manager was from Cardiff
Welsh-speaking Estelle Wilkinson, whose mum was from North Wales, organised the band between 2000 and 2006.
7. Cardiff loves Coldplay (the stats prove it!)
When Spotify released their regional streaming statistics in 2014, it was Coldplay who came out on top as being Cardiff's favourite band.
The fans are certainly excited about them coming here...
Coldplay will be at Cardiff's Principality Stadium on Tuesday, July 11 and Wednesday, July 12
