\n\tWhile the first weekend of the festival obeyed the curfew, weekend two went over on two days, as first reported by TMZ<\/a>. On Friday night (April 17), Anyma<\/a>\u2019s midnight sent went on until 1:09 a.m., which cost the festival $24,000 in fines. And on Saturday (April 18), Justin Bieber<\/a>\u2019s headlining performance went over by two minutes, costing an additional $20,000.<\/p>\n

\n\tCoachella has a long-running agreement with Indio city officials that the festival end at 1:00 a.m. each Friday and Saturday night and at 12:00 a.m. on Sundays. According to the agreement, Coachella is fined $20,000 for the first five minutes it exceeds the curfew limit, with additional fines beyond that.<\/p>\n

\n\tThis isn\u2019t the first time Coachella has been hit with curfew fines. Way back in 2009, Goldenvoice paid a $54,000 fine after singer Paul McCartney went a whopping 54 minutes over his allotted time. Last year, the festival was fined<\/a> $20,000 when Travis Scott went three minutes past curfew on weekend one, while in 2024, a performance by Lana Del Rey cost it $17,000. In 2023, meanwhile, Goldenvoice racked up more than $168,000 in fines after six performers \u2014 Bad Bunny, Frank Ocean, The Weeknd, Skrillex, Fred Again and Four Tet \u2014 blew past their curfew times.<\/p>\n

\n\tYesterday, Coachella closed out two weekends with headlining performances from Sabrina Carpenter, Bieber and Karol G. The polo grounds will transform this week into Goldenvoice\u2019s country music festival Stagecoach, which runs from April 24-26 with headliners Cody Johnson, Lainey Wilson and Post Malone.<\/p>\n
