Dance artist Anyma’s performance at Coachella 2026 was cancelled about 15 minutes after its scheduled midnight slot on Friday (April 10) on Weekend One of the two-weekend festival. At press time, Anyma remains scheduled to play next weekend.
The show was set to close out the festival’s main Coachella Stage, but minutes after 12:00 a.m., a message was posted on the stage’s screens stating that “due to strong winds affecting Anyma’s stage build, he is unable to perform tonight. Coachella and Anyma have made this decision together with your safety as the priority.”
“I’m sorry everyone,” the artist later wrote in a comment on an Instagram post with the news shared by Coachella. “We’ve done everything in our control to build the show I’ve worked an entire year on. Safety always comes first and we’re working on a solution now.”
The main stage appeared set with at least some musical equipment and various props for the show that ultimately did not happen. While not clear which aspect of Anyma’s set would have been impacted by the winds, the conditions appeared to only impact Anyma’s Coachella Stage set so adversely, as concurrent scheduled performances onsite continued during this timeframe. Crowds gathered for Anyma could be seen diverting to Gordo at the festival’s dance-focused Yuma Tent, Sexyy Red in the Sahara Tent, and Blood Orange at the Mojave, while others made their way to the festival exit.
The performance was meant to be the global debut of ÆDEN, the new Anyma production. This show would have followed his late 2024/early 2025 residency at Sphere Las Vegas, where the Italian American artist debuted his acclaimed audiovisual show, The End of Genesys.
If Anyma’s recent singles and music videos are any indication, the aesthetic of his new era is ancient ruins and cyborg angels, with both of these motifs seen in the recent videos for the Joji collab “Beautiful” and the LISA collab “Bad Angel.”
