Also known as: BeyonceCoachellaCoachella2018

Beyoncé’s Coachella 2018 headlining performance (April 14-21) — dubbed “Beychella” — became most culturally significant festival set ever. First Black woman to headline Coachella. HBCU-inspired (200+ dancers, marching band, step routines), celebrated Black culture. Destiny’s Child reunion (Kelly, Michelle), Jay-Z appearance, Solange duet. Netflix doc Homecoming (2019) showed 8 months prep. Coachella paid her $8M (double usual headliner rate, worth it). Performance redefined what festival headlining could be—not just concert, full cultural statement. Set impossible standard for future Coachella headliners.
