"We are absolutely thrilled to have been asked to play Radio 1's Big Weekend in Glasgow this year," said drummer Will Champion.
"Playing in Glasgow is always so much fun and Radio 1 have always been wonderful to us so it couldn't really be any better!"
Coldplay's performance at Radio 1's Big Weekend will follow the release of their new album Ghost Stories on May 19.
