Beyoncé performed the 2018 concerts later featured in Homecoming at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival. She headlined the festival in Indio, California, on April 14 and April 21, 2018.
Her performances were historic because she became the first Black woman to headline Coachella. The production incorporated a marching-band and historically Black college and university-inspired aesthetic, with large ensembles, choreography, costumes, and guest appearances.
Homecoming: A Film by Beyoncé premiered on Netflix in April 2019 and paired concert footage with behind-the-scenes material about the show’s development. A live album with the same title was released alongside the film.
Coachella is often shortened to “the Coachella festival,” while the event’s formal name is the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival. The concerts were postponed from 2017 after Beyoncé announced her pregnancy with twins.
