Ed Sheeran and Weezer were two previously unannounced acts spotted on the 2025 Coachella lineup when set times for the this year’s festival were posted on Saturday (April 5). They’ll each pop in for a one-day, daytime set.

Weezer will play the Mojave tent on Saturday afternoon (3:10-3:55 p.m.) on April 12, during the festival’s first weekend.


Sheeran takes a Saturday afternoon (3-4 p.m.) Mojave time slot on April 19, during weekend two. Both acts perform just before Yo Gabba Gabba!’s 4:45 p.m. set at the same stage.

Their addition to to the Coachella bill arrives ahead of several upcoming festival dates for Weezer, who’ve been celebrating the 30th anniversary of their 1994 self-titled debut, known as The Blue Album. Sheeran also has a summer full of shows scheduled, and a just-released single, “Azizam,” from his upcoming album Play; “Azizam” means “my dear” in Farsi, and was inspired by producer Illya Salmanzadeh’s Persian heritage.

In favour of keeping the Western Canadian province as a part of the country, they were joined by other Alberta acts including Celeigh Cardinal, Kue Varo and The Only Hopes, Caity Gyorgy, Reuben Bullock and Montuno West.

Over the weekend, grassroots organization Forever Canadian hosted a free outdoor concert at The Confluence Historic Site and Parkland in the Western Canadian province — just one month before citizens will have their say on the proposed separation.
