Coachella 2026 Context
Rezz’s withdrawal is part of a series of lineup changes for this year’s event in Indio, California. Earlier in the festival cycle, the group Lambrini Girls also withdrew after their lead singer suffered an acute brain injury and a fractured neck.
Despite the cancellation of her second set, Rezz stated she is super proud of
her performance from the first weekend and intends to upload the full set to YouTube in the near future.
The Sahara Tent, where Rezz was scheduled to perform on April 18, 2026, is a venue known for hosting major electronic dance music acts. Rezz previously made history at the festival in 2018 when she became the first woman to headline the Sahara stage.

The festival’s 2026 headliners include Justin Bieber, Sabrina Carpenter and Karol G. Other notable first-weekend highlights included a return for The xx, a theatrical set by David Byrne, and a performance by The Strokes.
