The popular festival’s first-ever break between years was due to the postponement and eventual cancellation of the planned 2020 event. The event was then rescheduled for April 2021 but was cancelled again due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

The festival finally returned in April 2022, with Harry Styles, Billie Eilish, the Weeknd, and Swedish House Mafia as headliners. Just days before the event, Kanye West was removed from the lineup and replaced by the Weeknd and Swedish House Mafia. West was later sued for $7.1 million by Phantom Labs, a production and design firm based in Los Angeles, who claimed that West had not paid them for work on his Coachella performance.
