The 2020 Coachella has been canceled after it was rescheduled to hold in October 2020. Coachella is one of the most famous and profitable music festivals in the United States and was to take place on 10-12 and 17-19th April 2019.

Dr. Cameron Kaiser, Riverside County public health officer disclosed that the two-week music festival cancellation was due to the risk of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

2020 will be the first year without a Coachella since 2000. To this end, Seun Kuti, and other artistes will no longer perform during the festival as planned.

Unlike last year when Mr Eazi and Burna Boy performed at the festival, this time, we only had one Nigerian act at the festival; Seun Kuti.
