Coachella
Hit With $44K Fine …
Bieber & Anyma
Published
Those sky-high Coachella ticket prices are coming in handy — because festival organizers just got slapped with a pretty hefty curfew bill!
A rep for the city of Indio, where Coachella goes down, tells TMZ … Weekend 1 stayed on track … but Weekend 2 racked up $44,000 in fines after Anyma and Justin Bieber‘s sets ran over.
Friday night saw Anyma go nine minutes past the 1 AM cutoff — costing organizers $24K. Then Saturday, Bieber pushed things just two minutes over … but that still tacked on another $20K, bringing the total to $44K.
As you know, Anyma closed the show down Friday night, while Bieber serenaded Billie Eilish with “One Less Lonely Girl” — so with both sets clearly having the crowd going, it looks like the extra time was worth it.
As for the fines? They’re part of Coachella’s long-standing agreement with the city of Indio — and the cash heads straight into the city’s general fund, helping cover things like public works, police, and fire services.
Bottom line … great shows, pricey overtime!
