Allegedly, Shak would only agree to headline , Coachella couldn't cover the production cost of her performance (knowing Shak's frugal stage designs this is hilarious lol) and offered her second place but she declined.

Doja hasn't been exactly the touring force, has she? I'm not sure about Lana but for the festival, i don't think her music suits the vibe, which results in ticket sales

Most definitely Shakira. No Shakira no sales

Everyone’s broke 

this is true but people still happily pay top coin to go to concerts, the touring industry is actually massive rn.

 

these festivals are just tired

Ever since Beychella happened, there’s literally no use for the festival. That was its (legendary) peak.

It used to baffle me how much people would pay to attend this 3 day event. Fast forward to 2023 I spent nearly 1k to see Beyoncé up close for 2 1/2 hours. Coachella doesn’t seem expensive anymore. People are probably scared of the heat after that hell of a summer last year.

It's good value generally, and I think anyone with a job can afford it... this time tho the organizers bet on the festival selling out on its name alone. This proves that it's not the case and the lineup matters too.

A good festival will have you making King Solomon choices between your favorite bands because you're so spoiled for choice. ...I only see like five or six artists I'd want to see. I'm not a festival person, so it's all theoretical to me, but what about this line-up is supposed to entice me to spend all that money and be wildly uncomfortable for days on end?

I keep saying that Coachella is over (buried by Primavera and the pandemic) and so many people my age seem completely unable to reconcile with that. It’s still an honor to play, obviously, but it was clear after Beyoncé’s legendary headline performance that nothing after could compare.

I just saw the lineup for Primavera Barcelona this year and oh my goodness... Coachella got scooped big time :laugh: Even the artists with smaller font are somewhat better and known.

But after pandemic people were hungry for concerts and going out of their homes to explore live performancs. so what happened now?

Both true, but like someone already mentioned, the festival’s commercial peak was from Madonna, the Tupac hologram, to Beyoncé. Anyone who came after her are not performers, maaaybe Ariana but that’s it

 

and yeah, I could see them going back to one weekend if the trend chasers and pop fans stop going

Madonna put Coachella on not only a national map, but a worldwide one.  It was literally crazy at that time, and there was so much resistance from the purists who didn't want Madonna tarnishing Coachella's allure.  Lots of protests.  Lots of anger towards her.  She won in the end tho cuz her performance was legendary and the talk of everyone.  And she was 47, maybe even 48. :deadbanana:  I wish I was there, I wasn't, but I was following a whole group of friends from different Madonna forums who were there and taking pictures/videos.

 

but before her Coachella wasn't nearly as big/mainstream.

They missed an opportunity to bank on Nostalgia. Lovers and Friends fest proved that.

The headliners and even the lower acts… I recognize a few names on there but this is a super weak lineup.
