PinkPantheress' Birthday Set

PinkPantheress turned her Weekend 2 Coachella set into an onstage birthday party, packing the Mojave tent with surprise guests on April 19. (hollywoodreporter.com) The British singer brought out Zara Larsson, Chase Infiniti and Manon during the set, and The Hollywood Reporter said Janelle Monáe, Tyriq Withers, Blood Orange, Slayyyter and DJ Ninajirachi also appeared. Billboard also reported the guest-heavy lineup during Weekend 2 in Indio, California. (billboard.com) Coachella’s second weekend ran April 17-19, 2026, at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, with PinkPantheress on the festival lineup for the sold-out 25th-anniversary edition. The official festival site listed her among this year’s performers. (coachella.com) The set landed at a moment when Coachella’s second weekend was again being defined by guest appearances as much as billed names. The Los Angeles Times’ live coverage and USA Today’s weekend guide both highlighted a festival cycle driven by cameos and repeat-stage surprises.

Coachella’s 2026 announcement said YouTube returned as the exclusive livestream partner for both weekends. (coachellavalley.com) Her Coachella appearances this month came during the “An Evening with… PinkPantheress” tour, according to setlist and tour coverage published around the festival. Setlist.fm logged her first-weekend Coachella performance on April 11 under that tour name. (setlist.fm) Weekend 2 is often where Coachella sets start to diverge from the first weekend, with artists adjusting pacing, staging or guests after the first run. In PinkPantheress’ case, the adjustment was simple and visible: make the set a birthday celebration and fill it with famous friends. (hollywoodreporter.com)
