See Justin Bieber, Hailey Bieber’s Baby Jack at Coachella 2026

The set was extra sweet since it marked Justin’s solo performance debut, with him previously stepping on stage at the Indio, Calif., venue as a special guest, including Ariana Grande’s show in 2019 and Daniel Caesar’s in 2022.

The Coachella also came as a special return to a major stage as Justin canceled his Justice World Tour early in 2022 to focus on his well-being following his diagnosis with Ramsay Hunt syndrome. And he’s since admitted he’s been hesitant to hit the road again.

Admitting he felt “burned out” by touring during a Twitch stream on Oct. 31, Justin noted, “I think just because I’ve been touring for so long, just even the idea of touring at this point in my life sounds super daunting.” 

But with touring off the table, Justin had the freedom to curate a Coachella performance he was proud of. 

“But right now, I’m just focusing on Coachella,” he said during the stream. “I got one show next year, in April, which is a long time away. And I’m just gonna focus on that for now and give my all to it. And so that doesn’t feel super overwhelming.”

During the stream, Justin also explained that he was “really excited” for the performance and had always “dreamed” of performing at the music festival. 

And the dream isn’t over yet—Justin will be back on the Coachella stage on April 18 to close out his time in the desert, along with other acts like Ethel Cain, Disclosure, Foster the People, PinkPantheress, Teddy Swims, KATSEYE, The Strokes, Addison Rae, David Byrne, Young Thug, Sexyy Red and Laufey.
