[Update] Frank Ocean did eventually turn up - an hour late. And to the annoyance of fans, he said he had to cut his performance short, because of curfew.
The final two performers on the Coachella Stage (main stage) during weekend 1 of Coachella 2023 do not appear to be participating in the live stream broadcast.
Where is Frank Ocean? Coachella 2023 Disappointment
The official #CoachellaOnYouTube live stream schedule for Sunday, April 16 does not include Bjork and Frank Ocean.
While it is still unclear whether their performances will appear during the second weekend (April 21-23), it is evident that they will not air their showcases during the first weekend.
No official statements were made by AEG Presents, Goldenvoice, Coachella, Frank Ocean, or Bjork regarding the absence of their ensembles from the live broadcast, so the reason for their absence remains unknown.
Following an official tweet (below), YouTube has verified that Frank Ocean's performance will not be streamed.
FISHER + Chris Lake, Porter Robinson, MK, Jai Wolf, Dominic Fike, GloRilla, Kali Uchis, WILLOW, A Boogie with a Hoodie, and many others will be among the artists whose sets will broadcast on #CoachellaOnYouTube during weekend 1 of Coachella 2023.

Rare Vinyl LP 'Scam'
This is not the only thing that disappointed Frank Ocean's fans on this year's Coachella.
In addition, when the gates to the 2023 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival opened on Friday at noon, Frank Ocean fan Jamie Reina was prepared to run with their lives to get his record.
Some said it resembled a battle from the Middle Ages and there was a mass pandemonium. Everyone was seeking the same thing.
Reina and hundreds of fans raced to a remote corner of the festival, past the Bad Bunny installation with Adidas, to form a line in front of a white tent for the Record Safari.
The Los Angeles store conducts an annual record sale at Coachella, and this year there was a rare vinyl LP of Frank Ocean's "Blonde" album available for collectors.
The throng of admirers formed a serpentine line around the store's entrance. When the doors opened, word quickly spread that there was only one copy of the record available for purchase.
Fans exited the store with dismay and wrath. They said one individual swooped in and snatched it from the wall and they were all left in vain, thinking they have been scammed.
