I don’t have live access to up-to-the-minute streaming stats right now. Here’s the latest context I can share based on publicly reported figures:
- Coachella’s YouTube live streams have set multiple records over the years, with the 2018 festival reportedly drawing about 41 million unique viewers across the opening weekend, and 2019 weekend one reaching around 83 million live views (these figures come from reports tracking YouTube's Coachella coverage).[1][2]
- Peak concurrent viewers for individual performances have been cited in the hundreds of thousands (e.g., about 458,000 for Beyoncé’s Saturday night set in 2018).[1]
- 2024–2025 reports indicated continued strength in viewership and expanding international reach, with Coachella livestreams continuing as a major audience driver for the festival, though exact current-year totals are not consistently published in the public press.[6][9]
If you’d like, I can look for the most recent official figures from Coachella or YouTube for the current year’s livestreams and provide a precise number with sources.
