Coldplay have confirmed plans to perform a New Year's Eve show with Jay-Z in the US.

The British band will take to the Barclays Center in Brooklyn on December 31 for a co-headline show with the esteemed US rapper.

The gig will come two years to the day after the two acts shared the bill in Las Vegas for a special show.

The new Coldplay date will be preceded by two headline US shows, with the group hitting Connecticut's Mohegan Sun Arena on December 29 and the Barclays Center again on December 30.

Support for the two Coldplay only shows will be Naturally 7.
