In January 2017, it was officially announced that Beyoncé would headline the Coachella Music and Arts Festival, marking a significant moment as she would become only the second female headliner since the festival's inception in 1999. However, on February 23, 2017, it was revealed that due to doctor's concerns regarding her pregnancy, Beyoncé would no longer be able to perform at the festival. This led to the festival owners announcing that she would instead headline the 2018 edition of Coachella. Following the announcement of her withdrawal from the lineup, ticket prices for the festival saw a notable drop of 12%. This incident highlighted the impact of major artists on festival economics and the anticipation surrounding their performances.
