Which Beyoncé film and album document her 2018 Coachella performance?

Homecoming documents Beyoncé’s 2018 Coachella performance in both a film and a live album.

Homecoming: A Film by Beyoncé premiered on Netflix on April 17, 2019. It combines concert footage from her two 2018 Coachella appearances with rehearsal scenes and personal material. The film shows the scale of the production, including a large band, dancers, vocalists, and marching-band arrangements.

The performance became especially notable because Beyoncé was the first Black woman to headline Coachella. Its artistic concept drew on historically Black colleges and universities, including their band traditions, Greek-letter organizations, and campus culture.

The companion live album, Homecoming: The Live Album, was released on the same day as the film. Homecoming is not the title of the 2019 documentary Life Is but a Dream, which was released years earlier and focuses more broadly on Beyoncé’s life and career. It is also separate from the 2020 visual album Black Is King.
