Dua Lipa’s LA Run Has Reddit Asking: Why Not Headline Coachella 2026?

Reddit Reacts to Dua Lipa’s LA Run

A viral thread on r/coachella is lighting up after a Redditor caught night one of Dua Lipa’s four-night LA run. Fans are praising the show’s production, vocals and choreography — and wondering why Goldenvoice passed on booking her as a headliner for Coachella 2026.

Just caught night one of her 4-night run in LA. How the hell did they not book her to headline 2026??? The production was top tier, she sounded great and hit all the choreo. A huge fumble on GV’s end imo. It would’ve been a huge dance party in the desert had they booked her
