Frank Ocean‘s highly anticipated headlining set at Coachella will not be livestreamed tonight.
The set, which is still scheduled to take place as planned at the time of publishing, has been pulled from Coachella’s YouTube streaming schedule. This means only those in attendance at Coachella will be able to watch Ocean perform.
YouTube has since confirmed the news, writing on Twitter: “Frank Ocean is not scheduled to appear on the Coachella livestream”.

Besides Frank Ocean, Björk‘s livestream from Coachella has also been pulled from its streaming schedule. Currently, the last performer on the Coachella main stage to receive a livestream will be Kali Uchis.
Frank Ocean is set to close out the third and final day of Coachella weekend one. The first day of the festival was headlined by Bad Bunny, who became the first Latin and Spanish-language artist to headline the Californian festival. In true Bad Bunny fashion, his headlining set was a pure spectacle, comprising stunning visuals, guest performers and more. Relive the best moments form his headlining set at Coachella here.
