Coachella just completed its first weekend but there’s been mixed opinions about the festival

The world’s largest festival welcomed over 250,000 individuals and featured A-listers including Harry Styles, Billie Eilish, Doja Cat and more.

General admission fees start upward of $449 USD, so some attendees were disappointed by last-minute cancellations and unfair management by Coachella organisers.

Just weeks prior to the festival headliner Kanye West pulled out of Coachella with organisers giving no statement.

The performance was predicted to be one of Kanye’s biggest sets in years and many fans were disappointed that he would no longer be performing.

Coachella organisers were placed under scurtiny as festival-goers critised them for upholding double standards

Mid performance, Japanese singer Joji halted his performance and left his band onstage for nearly ten minutes.

Soon after Joji returned to the stage and attributed leaving to a health condition.

The performance continued, however the live stream was not posted by Coachella.

Fans have since condemmed Coachella organisers for forcing the singer to continue his performance while unwell.

Attendees have accused organisers for being hypocritical as Kanye was allowed to leave the festival.

The Weekend and Swedish House Mafia took over Kanye’s headlining act

Coachella attendees acknowledged the quick replacement for Kanye’s set.

After running 30 minutes late Swedish House Mafia took to the stage first performing EDM and techno tunes.

Soon after The Weekend (Abel Tesfaye) joined them on stage and performed hits including Blinding Lights, a top 10 Billboard hit for 57 consecutive weeks.

The Weekend gave a nod to West and sung the verse he did on the rapper’s single “Hurricane.”

Unlike other Coachella performances spruced with a band, dancers and special effects this one was stripped back to the Swedish House Mafia DJ set and The Weeknd on vocals.

The set had one of the largest attendance of the festival and was considered rather experimental.

The non-traditional act was celebrated among other performances that day including Doja Cat, FINNEAS, Måneskin and more.
