A shirtless Justin Bieber and a Harry Styles-Shania Twain duet were among the first-night highlights as the Coachella Music & Art Festival returned to the Empire Polo Club following two years of cancellations due to the COVID-19 pandemic, drawing thousands to the Indio area.
Styles, a longtime fan of the veteran singer, joined Twain to sing her 1999 hit"Man, I Feel Like a Woman" and also introduced two new songs. Elsewhere, Bieber showed up during singer-songwriter Daniel Caesar's set to perform their chart-topping hit"Peaches."
Billie Eilish is set to headline Saturday with Swedish House Mafia with The Weeknd topping the list of performers on Sunday. This year's festival also features an innovation that has never factored into previous events -- a commemorative NFT. Two years ago, NFTs were almost unheard of, but the Coachella Music & Art Festival is offering all attendees a free 2022 In Bloom seed digital NFT, redeemable through the FTX app with each individual's ticket wristband. Once redeemed, the NFT comes with perks, including a dedicated entry lane, limited-edition merchandise, along with food and beverage vouchers.
Cryptocurrency aside, it's safe to say that this year's event has already brought various surprises for festivalgoers, who spent months on edge, fearing a possible third straight cancellation. While that didn't happen, the event hasn't been without drama.
