12-Year-Old Autistic Huillo Joins Coldplay For Epic Stadium Show In Mexico

During their Mexico City stadium show, Coldplay invited a special guest to join them on stage—12-year-old Huillo, a young Mexican boy with a heartwarming connection to the band. Years ago. A video of 6-year-old Huillo, who has autism, captured the internet’s attention as he was moved to tears during Coldplay’s performance of “Fix You” at their previous Mexico concert.

Now, standing beside his idols, Huillo’s journey with Coldplay came full circle. It was a moment that touched the audience and showed how music can connect people and emotions.

When Coldplay made their highly anticipated return to Mexico City, Chris Martin took a moment to reflect on a video that had deeply moved the band. “It was the best video we’ve ever seen,” he remarked, explaining how it meant more to them than anything they had ever created.

The heartwarming video featured Huillo, and Martin went on to invite him on stage to perform his original song, “Different is OK.’ It was a touching moment, and one that left the audience in awe.

Check out the unforgettable moment below:

The band performed in front of 65,000 fans at the Foro Sol stadium, and the energy in the air was palpable as the crowd started chanting Huillo’s name.

Stepping onto the stage with a calm demeanor, Huillo led with both vocals and piano, completely unfazed by the sea of faces watching him. The band backed him up with a beautifully stripped-down acoustic arrangement.

Since its release in 2022, the video has garnered over 4M views and received an abundance of positive comments. Many are touched, crying everytime they watch it.
