A rep for the Metropolis of Indio — the place Coachella takes place — tells TMZ … no curfew guidelines have been damaged throughout the first installment of the competition, and everybody caught to the 1 AM curfew for Friday and Saturday … whereas shutting issues down by midnight on Sunday.
In different phrases … there was no motive to positive anybody for going over on time — and contemplating the lackluster response to this year’s lineup … we suppose that is smart.
Reality is … there have been TONS of Coachella passes that have been readily available for this yr’s occasion — regardless of having offered out in years previous — and now that we all know all of the music acts have been in a position to begin and cease on time kinda speaks to that.
Looks like it was fairly boring and all by the e book, which we’re positive Metropolis officers are comfortable about on their finish. The extra folks there are … the more durable it’s to settle everybody down.
It was the alternative final yr … as we reported, curfew violations in 2023 (for Weekend 1) resulted in a total of $117,000 in fines — with a every day positive of $20,000 being issued for the primary 5 minutes previous curfew, and one other $1,000 being added on for each minute thereafter.
