Ed Sheeran and Weezer Rock Coachella 2025 Lineup After Artist Dropouts

Gather ’round, music lovers, as we dive headfirst into the delightful chaos of the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival! It seems the festival gods have intervened, and we’re now graced with the presence of Ed Sheeran and the ever-charming Weezer in the 2025 lineup. Yes, you heard that right—two powerhouses have stepped up to fill the void left by the enigmatic FKA Twigs, who recently had to bow out due to “ongoing visa issues.” In a heartfelt Instagram post, Twigs expressed her devastation over the cancellation, lamenting the inability to share her latest creative endeavors, which she believes to be among her finest works. Clearly, the universe had other plans, but fear not, for Sheeran and Weezer are ready to bring their A-game to the festival on April 11-13 and 25-27, 2025.
Sheeran will grace the Mojave Stage on Saturday at 3:00 p.m. during Weekend Two, while Weezer takes the stage just ten minutes later for Weekend One. With Lady Gaga, Travis Scott, Green Day, and Post Malone already headlining, this year promises to be a veritable feast for the senses. One can’t help but appreciate the swift maneuvering of festival organizers who, in the face of artist dropouts, have managed to snag two of the biggest names in the industry.
And speaking of dropouts, let’s not forget the other unfortunate news: Anitta also announced her absence due to “unexpected personal reasons.” She gracefully thanked the festival for their understanding, but let’s be real—her fans are left holding back tears, and rightly so. It’s a tough break for those rooting for a dynamic lineup, but the Coachella spirit remains undeterred.
As we prepare for the festival, one can’t help but reflect on the ever-evolving landscape of live music, where the unexpected is the norm. The festival has become a cultural touchstone, a place where history is made, and memories are etched into the fabric of our collective consciousness. So, whether you’re a die-hard Sheeran fan or a Weezer devotee, or just someone looking to escape the daily grind, Coachella 2025 is shaping up to be a spectacular affair.
In the end, while we may mourn the missed performances of Twigs and Anitta, we embrace the surprises that come with the territory. After all, isn’t that what true artistry is all about? So, dust off those flower crowns and prepare for an unforgettable experience—because if history has taught us anything, it’s that music has a way of healing even the most broken hearts.
Class dismissed! Don’t forget your sunscreen and your sense of adventure.
