"Live in Buenos Aires" is a live album by British rock band Coldplay. Released on December 7, 2018, the album captures one of the band's most iconic performances that occurred at the Estadio Ciudad de La Plata in Argentina during the A Head Full of Dreams Tour in November 2017.
The album features songs from throughout Coldplay's discography with a total of 24 tracks, including classics such as "Yellow" and "Paradise" and newer songs from the then-latest album "A Head Full of Dreams". It also introduces a new song that never had been recorded in a studio, “Life is Beautiful”.
The A Head Full of Dreams Tour upon which the live album is based was the band’s most extensive to date, with over 120 shows across four continents. The tour garnered a positive response from fans and critics alike, with The Guardian calling it a “colorful euphoria” and Rolling Stone praising its “grand and colorful spectacle”.
Notably, the album was also released in a bundle called the "Butterfly package," which included the Live in Buenos Aires album, the accompanying Live In São Paulo concert film, and the documentary film "A Head Full of Dreams."
This album offers the experience of live Coldplay performances, closely recreating the energy, vibrancy, and grandiosity of their stage shows. It stands as a testament to the band's longevity and continual relevance in the music world.
