Coachella’s second day, Saturday, April 12, was backloaded with one must-see set after another, with T-Pain’s hits-filled performance leading into stellar sunset sets from both Charli xcx as well as Gustavo Dudamel and the Los Angeles Philharmonic (featuring a handful of special guests).
And even though day two was a bit overcast, allowing for a break from the intense heat of day one, Charli’s set more than made up for the temperature drop; While her show was its own creation, existing separately from her joint Sweat tour with Troye Sivan, sweat is what many did. ‘Bratchella’ turned up the heat as Charli writhed and strutted onstage, all the while welcoming a revolving door of guests including Sivan for “Talk Talk,” Lorde for “Girl, So Confusing” (during which Charli declared “Lorde Summer 2025”) and Billie Eilish for “Guess.”
Enhypen and Green Day then ushered in the evening, and though the latter was billed as Saturday’s headlining act, the rockers were followed by The Original Misfits and a near-midnight set from Travis Scott. (The rapper wrote on X on Friday, April 11: “YES IM HEADLINING COACHELLA ON SATURDAY. THEY THINK THEY GON PUT THE RAGE ON LATE F–K THAAT ALL THE FANS YOU KNOW WHATS UP LET EM KNOW WHILE U OUT THERE.”)
Saturday also featured a heavy rotation of dance acts, including Darkside, horsegiirL, Barry Can’t Swim and Above & Beyond all in succession of one another.
Read below for all the highlights from Saturday, with Friday’s recap also available and another daily roundup of highlights coming Sunday.
