Though the first day of Coachella was mostly a success, it wasn't without problems. Anyma had been slated to perform at midnight, but the Italian-American DJ's set was canceled last-minute due to severe weather conditions.
The Indio festival shared a statement yesterday on social media that read: "Due to strong wind conditions affecting Anyma's stage build, he is unable to perform tonight. Coachella and Anyma have made this decision together with your safety as the priority."
Anyma left a comment, writing, "I’m sorry everyone. We’ve done everything in our control to build the show I’ve worked an entire year on. Safety always comes first and we’re working on a solution now."
He was supposed to debut his latest audiovisual project, ÆDEN, yesterday. It will now premiere next weekend.
Wind also caused a piece of equipment to fall during John Summit’s performance at the DoLaB tent, injuring a festivalgoer. The stage was then closed.
