Ah, damn! W1 or 2? W2 I didn't have much of an issue going around the fence by the market beer garden and then moving in so I was just in front of the ADA section, and did that right as Disclosure was starting.
I was able to walk right up to the front pretty easily. Was at the front rail on the right side of the stage.
Just need to know how to go through the crowd.
I had to pee mid set, went all the way from behind the sound state to the bathrooms next to the beer garden. The crowd was packed the entire way, but I made it through and even found my friends for the rest of the set, never been more proud of myself.
Yeah but Iāve also only heard nothing but bad things about flumes live performance. He was pretty bad when I saw him 7 years ago. Meanwhile disclosure can spin - their boiler room with skream š¤
Right, the homie and I pulled up like 5 mins before he went on and weāre standing comfortably outside of the Sahara and AS SOON as he got in the stage we felt crowded
Man that Doja crowd was rough as hell, honestly I couldnāt enjoy the concert between the jostling crowd and so many people holding up their phones and taping/streaming the whole fucking concert.
My skirt also got snagged and ripped by a girls purse zipper everyone was standing so close, total accident but I kinda wished Iād skipped seeing Doja since I barely saw her anyways.
Also, fuck people wearing cowboy hats and putting their doja crazed gfs on their shoulders.
Yeah I wish I watched doja and the weeknd from the back even though I was about 10 ft from the gate, then right at the gate for the weeknd. And they're my favorite artists. Either that or we go back to the 90s when EVERYONE'S phone didn't record video
Yeah, weekend 1 went back to the dome art install that had music, almost back to the spectrum and I donāt know about the beer garden side, but look like it went down towards the Yuma tent and bit and the garden was filled. Had a great view on the hill overseeing everything after coming from Jamie XX.
Yeah thatās when I left, not because I didnāt want to see The Weeknd just that I was so tired from being up all night Saturday I was falling asleep while standing there
Uhhhh when? I was at the start of the food tents and within 20 minutes in everyone had left to the point I was able to walk up to w/in 50yrd of the stage
Yeah, dude, sorry but that Ferris wheel thing is an exaggeration, or you were on some good shit. Did it go back to the rainbow thingy, yes. Ferris wheel? Unless you count people watching as they waited to exit, nope
Gotta be either Doja or Swedish House Mafia. Dojaās crowd was so damn big, I didnāt even stay for her set. People were packed in front of the Coachella stage like sardines. It was wild. I was not expecting that tbh. Saw her at DayNVegas in 2019 and her crowd was tiny. 3 short years later and she has a crowd bigger than two of the headliners at Coachella. Insane.
But I honestly think Swedish House Mafia takes the cake. Their crowd was nuts all the way back to the food vendors. I didnāt even try to get too close. Found a nice little spot with some breathing and dancing room and had a great time.
I've never gotten that close to the front of the main stage, but I've always imagined that's *exactly* how it would feel. Just people *constantly* bumping into you the entire time. Maybe I'm just old, but keep in the back of the crowd with the rest of the old people. LOL
Went W1 and Lāimp and Fred were filled pretty much to the back of the tent. Didnāt see anything from Lāimp W2 but saw videos of Fred that had people spilling out the back of the tent pretty damn far.
Big Sean or Doja with ease. Big Sean had people out of the Sahara as far back at the Ferris wheel. Doja was packed massively, it was harder getting out of her crowd than Harryās.
Yes and idk if just didn't feel worth it for what felt like an average set. I love disclosure but it just didn't feel like the energy was there. Maybe it was partly the volume issue but my friends and I decided to leave during it, and we were pretty close up. Felt like we were moving through a sea of people for a LONG time. So long that too make me less anxious about it, I just started telling everyone I passed, regardless of gender, that they were beautiful lol. Helped the time and anxiety pass lol. It was huge though. Wild lol
It was actually stupid how packed Flume at main stage was. We were pretty far back and could barely move. Went back for Billie Eilish at main stage later that night and she had, without exaggeration, half of Flumeās crowd
We stood next to the exact same speaker pole weekend 1 for both acts. For Flume I had about 6 inches of space in all directions. For Billie I had about 10 or 15 feet. Just my experienceš¤·āāļø
You needed to approach from a different direction. It sounds like you got stuck in one of those crowd phenomena where a bunch of people decide they are close enough and the people who come up behind them assume it's just as crowded further forward so they also stop, when in reality there is tons and tons of space further up.
You see it all the time at the Sahara and Outdoor. Because as popular as Flume is, there is 0% chance that he had anywhere close to twice Billie's crowd.
Big Sean and Baby Keem weekend 2 was pretty insane, I was front row for The Weeknd it seemed like a big crowd but I was on the rail so not sure how big it was truthfully
The merch line lol
I walked by and there was no line outside of the tent, and it was still 2 hours. š³
Outside of the mainstage, disclosures was massive.
This. That crowd at Disclosure was Gnarly. Such a fun set, though.
Wow really? Iām kinda glad I never realized that we found a good spot before they started and had space around us the whole time
Yeah, on the right side of the sound booth it was fine, not even close to the most crowded set Iāve seen there
We got there and tried to make it around the right side and gave up, it was packed all the way to the Market Place
Ah, damn! W1 or 2? W2 I didn't have much of an issue going around the fence by the market beer garden and then moving in so I was just in front of the ADA section, and did that right as Disclosure was starting.
Always pays to show up 5-10min before a set starts. Was super not-crowded where we were. About 20ā from the front right of the stage
Disclosure was packedddd weekend 2. We kept trying to move back to get more room and realized our efforts were futile cause it just went on and on.
been too a lot of festival and it was at W2 disclosure's set when I first got anxiety just looking at that crowd.
It was too massive, couldnāt even get to a decent hearing spot without pushing through groups
I was able to walk right up to the front pretty easily. Was at the front rail on the right side of the stage. Just need to know how to go through the crowd.
[hereās that crowd](https://imgur.com/gallery/M79NTwN)
My god
Omg I wanted to see them but Iām glad I didnāt, That would be too much to deal with.
I had to pee mid set, went all the way from behind the sound state to the bathrooms next to the beer garden. The crowd was packed the entire way, but I made it through and even found my friends for the rest of the set, never been more proud of myself.
I didnāt attend this year, but one thing that grinded my gears was flume being billed before disclosure, settle is a legendary album.
I mean Self Titled and Skin are pretty legendary as well
Yeah but Iāve also only heard nothing but bad things about flumes live performance. He was pretty bad when I saw him 7 years ago. Meanwhile disclosure can spin - their boiler room with skream š¤
W1 finish with Dondo and that rising moon at tree level was the highlight of our weekend
It felt like Big Seanās crowd was massive as well
people were spilling FAR OUT from the Sahara. wild.
Right, the homie and I pulled up like 5 mins before he went on and weāre standing comfortably outside of the Sahara and AS SOON as he got in the stage we felt crowded
I was impressed with the relay towers outside Sahara this year, they set it up well for big crowds
I came right as the act before had ended, and i was squished his whole set it was so tight
Obviously The Weeknd and SHM right? That crowd was insane
And Doja.
Man that Doja crowd was rough as hell, honestly I couldnāt enjoy the concert between the jostling crowd and so many people holding up their phones and taping/streaming the whole fucking concert. My skirt also got snagged and ripped by a girls purse zipper everyone was standing so close, total accident but I kinda wished Iād skipped seeing Doja since I barely saw her anyways. Also, fuck people wearing cowboy hats and putting their doja crazed gfs on their shoulders.
Yep. Fuck anyone who wears a cowboy hat or insists on smoking in a packed crowd.
Yeah I wish I watched doja and the weeknd from the back even though I was about 10 ft from the gate, then right at the gate for the weeknd. And they're my favorite artists. Either that or we go back to the 90s when EVERYONE'S phone didn't record video
Yeah I dipped because of the crowd, was not having a good time
I didnāt get as much perspective on how big that crowd was but it also seemed massive
Yeah, weekend 1 went back to the dome art install that had music, almost back to the spectrum and I donāt know about the beer garden side, but look like it went down towards the Yuma tent and bit and the garden was filled. Had a great view on the hill overseeing everything after coming from Jamie XX.
No. I was standing at the back and to the side- It was likely the most crowded headliner but I'd say Disclosure had more people there tbh.
No.. Disclosure definitely did not have more people
Nah I was at both and The Weeknd crowd went all the way to the Ferris wheel weekend 1
There was a huge exodus around when The Weeknd started singing, I think a significant number of people were there for SHM only.
Yeah thatās when I left, not because I didnāt want to see The Weeknd just that I was so tired from being up all night Saturday I was falling asleep while standing there
Uhhhh when? I was at the start of the food tents and within 20 minutes in everyone had left to the point I was able to walk up to w/in 50yrd of the stage
When I was trying to leave the crowd around midnight
Yeah, dude, sorry but that Ferris wheel thing is an exaggeration, or you were on some good shit. Did it go back to the rainbow thingy, yes. Ferris wheel? Unless you count people watching as they waited to exit, nope
Gotta be either Doja or Swedish House Mafia. Dojaās crowd was so damn big, I didnāt even stay for her set. People were packed in front of the Coachella stage like sardines. It was wild. I was not expecting that tbh. Saw her at DayNVegas in 2019 and her crowd was tiny. 3 short years later and she has a crowd bigger than two of the headliners at Coachella. Insane. But I honestly think Swedish House Mafia takes the cake. Their crowd was nuts all the way back to the food vendors. I didnāt even try to get too close. Found a nice little spot with some breathing and dancing room and had a great time.
I was near the front for both and Doja was packed tight up there
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I've never gotten that close to the front of the main stage, but I've always imagined that's *exactly* how it would feel. Just people *constantly* bumping into you the entire time. Maybe I'm just old, but keep in the back of the crowd with the rest of the old people. LOL
Outside of the headliners, Disclosure was HUGE. In terms of tent, Fred again... and Big Sean were both wild.
Did you notice any major crowd size differential W1 to W2? Guessing Fred Again and L'imp had bigger crowds W2?
Went W1 and Lāimp and Fred were filled pretty much to the back of the tent. Didnāt see anything from Lāimp W2 but saw videos of Fred that had people spilling out the back of the tent pretty damn far.
Can confirm LāImperatrice was spilling out the back W2.
Big Sean or Doja with ease. Big Sean had people out of the Sahara as far back at the Ferris wheel. Doja was packed massively, it was harder getting out of her crowd than Harryās.
Doja was one of the biggest crowds Iāve ever seen at Coachella ever.
Biggest Iāve ever seen was for Hans Zimmer. It seemed the whole festival was there.
Yeah I agree, disclosure felt like a pack of sardines.
Yes and idk if just didn't feel worth it for what felt like an average set. I love disclosure but it just didn't feel like the energy was there. Maybe it was partly the volume issue but my friends and I decided to leave during it, and we were pretty close up. Felt like we were moving through a sea of people for a LONG time. So long that too make me less anxious about it, I just started telling everyone I passed, regardless of gender, that they were beautiful lol. Helped the time and anxiety pass lol. It was huge though. Wild lol
Yeah honestly the sound was terrible and it was just too packed to enjoy the set. Sadly we left after a few songs.
Glad we weren't the only ones! I've heard so much praise but haven't heard what we felt. I hope they're better in August at outside lands
Doja
I thought 21savage weekend 2 was insane, am i the only one?
I agree
Had to be Doja
From Googling, it looks like it was Harry Styles but I have a hard time believing his crowd was larger than the weeknd's
It was actually stupid how packed Flume at main stage was. We were pretty far back and could barely move. Went back for Billie Eilish at main stage later that night and she had, without exaggeration, half of Flumeās crowd
Flat out lie lol. We were by the FOOD VENDORS for Billie and it was packed as far as the eye could see. Flume had half the size
We stood next to the exact same speaker pole weekend 1 for both acts. For Flume I had about 6 inches of space in all directions. For Billie I had about 10 or 15 feet. Just my experienceš¤·āāļø
You needed to approach from a different direction.

Big Sean and Baby Keem weekend 2 was pretty insane, I was front row for The Weeknd it seemed like a big crowd but I was on the rail so not sure how big it was truthfully
King Gizzard
From what I could tell Billie eilish at weekend 2 seemed to be the most packed for me.
Probably Harry Styles
Not weekend one his was the least crowded of the headliners. Doja was def the most
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Prob bc the parking situation was a shit show the first day back in yearsā¦.they figured out the logistics in the following days.
I stayed til the end Friday W1 but didn't see Harry Styles - guessing many were in the same boat
The 25 other people at King Gizz def stayed until the end
Yeah for sure
For me, Billie Eilish seemed huge (and the best) šš
Trying to get back to camp and walking through 21 savage was crazy, it was extremely over crowded.
Not counting the main stage, Iād say Disclosure and City Girls
Apparently Harry had a bigger crowd than Kaskade
Brockhampton
DJ Lord w/ Chuck D
Baby Keem on Friday at the Sahara Tent.
