Swedish House Mafia Teams Up With the Weekend for Coachella

The announcement of headline acts comes a day after Swedish House Mafia collaborated with The Weeknd for an extensive set at this year's Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in California.

Titled "Swedish House Mafia x the Weeknd," the two acts joint forces and perform some of their biggest tracks in front of thousands of people.

The set was split into two halves; Variety reported that the trio opened the show with their songs and then performed with The Weeknd with their previous collaborations.

The Weeknd donned a casual outfit consisting of a black shirt, military vest, loose pants, and a pair of boots.

The singer later, whose real name is Abel Tesfaye, transitioned into his solo set, performing his hit tracks "Blinding Lights," "I Can't Feel My Face," "Hurricane," and more.

The set ended around Monday midnight with their collaboration "Moth to a Flame."

Kanye West was initially scheduled for the set, but he pulled out two weeks ago. The music trio was originally placed in a different lineup, but they were upgraded to headline the festival.
