Beyoncé is making her Coachella debut after canceling last year's headlining performance on doctor's orders due to her pregnancy. Queen B's set has gained a lot of buzz as news circulated of extensive rehearsals and elaborate assembly of dance troops. Her performance at the festival comes just as ahead of her On The Run II tour, which will take the superstar to stadiums and arenas across Europe and the U.S. this summer with husband Jay-Z as co-headliner.
The Weeknd heads into Coachella with a No. 1 album in place atop the Billboard 200. The GRAMMY-winning singer dropped a surprise mini-album last week, My Dear Melancholy, that became his third consecutive release to top the charts.
Other artists you can catch on the stream include Post Malone, Bleachers, Chromeo, Børns, Alt-J, Vince Staples, Kygo, and Tyler, The Creator. The festival's YouTube page has the full list.
But take note: YouTube will not be streaming Coachella's weekend two festivities, which will take place April 20–22, so this weekend's livestream is your best chance to hear what everyone will be talking about on Monday.
