Post Malone electrified the stage on Sunday night, April 13, as he closed out the first weekend of the 2025 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival. He headlined in Indio, California, signifying his return to the Coachella Festival. This was his second showing, after giving a stand-out performance in 2018. This year, he took to the sky with a Formula One-themed aerial display that created an atmosphere as electric as a Grand Prix race itself.
The New York-based artist performed selections from his new album, F-1 Trillion, which dropped last summer. The album includes a variety of collaborations with artists from Tyler, the Creator to Avicii, and has been acclaimed by fans and critics alike. Malone’s set was full of highlights, including a show-stopping, front-and-center performance of “Texas Tea,” which kicked off the show. He continued to thrill the audience with performances of “I Had Some Help,” “Pour Me a Drink,” “White Iverson,” “I Fall Apart,” and the popular track “Sunflower.”
Making the event all the more exciting was the star-studded cast of guest artists that joined Post Malone on stage during his BIG Cologne performance. Among them were country music legends Dolly Parton, Blake Shelton, Tim McGraw, and Luke Combs, as well as rising stars Lainey Wilson, Morgan Wallen, and Jelly Roll. Her guest spots brought a special tastiness to the jamband experience and left the 17,000 festie boys and girls buzzing.
The massive stage production, which made the setup look like a detailed Formula One course, created a spectacular essence that left the crowd breathless. The visuals were the perfect pairing with the upbeat dance music, making it a super cool experience for conference attendees.
