Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music CriticIf you missed out on catching the first weekend of Coachella from the comfort of your own home, and want to catch up after reading all about it… you’re probably in luck, if your interest is in the roughly 25 artists whose sets will be livestreamed in a more limited weekend-2 webcast lineup.Twenty-six attractions will have their full sets livestreamed as part of the “Coachella Curated” programming happening through Sunday. Full follow-up sets going out online include performances by Harry Styles, Billie Eilish, the teaming of the Weeknd with Swedish House Mafia, Doja Cat, Anitta, Baby Keem and Brockhampton, along with a partial set from 88rising, all on the festival’s YouTube channel 1.

Harry Styles drew a huge audience during his headline performance at Coachella 2022 last weekend.Sources have now told Variety that at least 100,000 fans gathered at the California festival’s main stage to watch the singer top the bill on Friday night (April 15). With an official total capacity of 125,000, this year’s Coachella was listed as sold out.The remaining 20,000-plus festivalgoers are said to have attended other sets that were being hosted on Coachella’s smaller stages.Back in 2015, Kaskade was reported to have broken the record for the biggest-ever Coachella audiences across the festival’s two weekends.

Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival returns with a line-up packed full of contemporary music’s best and brightest, from headliners Harry Styles, Billie Eilish, Swedish House Mafia and The Weeknd to fiery young upstarts like Koffee, Amyl and the Sniffers and Rina Sawayama. We’ve already rounded up the 12 acts you shouldn’t miss if you’re heading to Indio for either Weekend 1 (15-17 April) or Weekend 2 (22-24 April) this year, but now it’s time to look back at previous editions of the festival and the high bar set by the music legends who’ve graced the stage in years gone by.

Jem Aswad Senior Music EditorAs if it didn’t take long enough to get to the 21st installment of Coachella — what with a pandemic, four postponements and yet another recent Covid spike — when original Sunday headliner Kanye West pulled out two weeks ago, Swedish House Mafia had to transform their vaguely defined position on the lineup into a headlining set. In short order the Weeknd — who is still deep in work on his HBO series “The Idol,” which he cowrote, coproduced and stars in — agreed to bump up his previously planned brief appearance with the EDM titans to a co-headlining spot with them, but he had just two weeks to pull together a set.

Coachella attendees have spoken to NME about who they believe should’ve replaced Kanye West on the line-up, and how they feel about the rapper pulling out of the festival.After a year which saw him banned from the 2022 Grammys and banned from Instagram, Kanye decided to exclude himself from America’s biggest music festival, just 11 days before he was set to headline.News of his departure was followed by the announcement that The Weeknd and Swedish House Mafia would replace him on the line-up, closing out Sunday night on both this weekend (April 15 – 17) and next weekend (April 22 – 24) of the festival which takes place in Indio, California.“I feel like he’s dealing with some demons and anyone who needs support, we should give them that grace,” Emma McCardell, a 26-year-old attendee from Seattle, Washington said when asked about Kanye’s drop from the line-up. “If people need space, let them have their space.”Her partner, James who is also 26, shared in that sentiment.
