Coldplay's Friday night show at NRG Stadium has been postponed due to Hurricane Harvey.

The announcement was made at noon Friday by LiveNation, who added, "Ticketholders will be updated when there is further info. We urge all fans in the area to stay safe."

The band released its own statement on Facebook soon after the announcement:

Hi everyone in Houston We really wanted to play tonight, but sitting here all together watching the news about the storm we feel that we can't ask anyone to put their safety at risk. So, sadly, we will have to postpone. We will give details of rescheduling/refunding as soon as we can. We are really sorry for the inconveniences this will cause. Stay safe and see you soon. Love Coldplay

Fans have been inundating NRG Park since Wednesday on social media asking about the status of Coldplay's big show. Tickets went on sale back in October.

The band tweeted around 9:30 p.m. Thursday that there was a chance the show, part of it's A Head Full of Dreams Tour, would be called off. (Story continues below ...)

"Hello everyone. We're in Houston, watching the weather, ready to play tomorrow night if we're told it's OK, but equally ready to cancel if there's any danger to fans," the group said on Twitter.

Earlier Thursday, LiveNation said the show at NRG Stadium was "scheduled to move forward."

LiveNation also announced Thursday that Lady Antebellum's Sunday show at The Woodlands Pavilion was canceled.

The Coldplay setlist was to feature songs like "Yellow," "The Scientist," "Paradise," "Up & Up" and a cover of David Bowie's "Heroes."

The show includes three stages at various points throughout the stadium.

Coldplay moves on to Miami Gardens, Las Vegas and Seattle after the Houston date.
