Rezz has pulled out of Coachella’s second weekend, saying she needs to stop and deal with health issues before returning to the stage. (news.pollstar.com) The electronic artist, born Isabelle Rezazadeh, had been scheduled to play the Sahara Tent on Saturday of Weekend 2 after performing there during the festival’s first weekend on April 11. (news.pollstar.com) In her Instagram statement, reported by Pollstar and other outlets on April 16, Rezz said she had been “ignoring warning signs,” had kept pushing, and now had to “put my health first.” She also said she plans to upload her Weekend 1 set to YouTube. (news.pollstar.com, yahoo.com) Coachella’s second weekend begins Friday, April 17, and runs through Sunday, April 19, at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, with the same core lineup returning for a second round. (coachella.com, coachellavalley.com) Festival organizers announced the 2026 event with Sabrina Carpenter, Justin Bieber and Karol G at the top of the bill, alongside acts including Anyma, The xx, The Strokes, Young Thug and BigBang. (coachellavalley.com) Rezz’s cancellation adds to a week of lineup changes. Pollstar reported that Labrini Girls dropped out after their lead singer suffered a fractured neck, and Anyma had previously cited dust storms when his first-weekend set was called off shortly before showtime. (news.pollstar.com) Rezz has been a durable name in festival electronic music since breaking through on Deadmau5’s Mau5trap label, and she arrived at Coachella this year with a new EP, “A Shift in Perspective,” released days before her first-weekend set. (news.pollstar.com) For fans heading into the desert this weekend, the immediate change is simple: one of Saturday’s Sahara bookings is gone, and Rezz says the focus now is recovery, not a last-minute return.
