The first weekend of Coachella got off to a rough start, with festival-goers experiencing hourslong waits to enter the car camping area in Indio, California, without access to food, water, or bathrooms during intense heat. Some waited in line for up to 12 hours, leading to frustration and complaints on social media. Organizers did not immediately respond to the issue. By Friday, the lines had died down, but concerns remain for next weekend’s event. Advice circulated on social media suggested arriving early to use the bathroom and grab snacks before joining the line. Some compared the chaotic situation to the disastrous Fyre Festival. Despite the challenges, the weekend lineup includes popular headliners like Lady Gaga, Green Day, Post Malone, Charli XCX, and Megan Thee Stallion, keeping the energy and excitement high for the rest of the festival.
