Coachella headliner Phoenix has canceled its highly-anticipated April 10 show at the Cosmopolitan’s Boulevard Pool.
A statement from the hotel attributed the cancelation to “an unforeseen circumstance,” but no further details were available. The Cosmopolitan will try to reschedule the show for later in the year, but a new date has not been confirmed. Ticket refunds can be obtained by contacting the point of sale.
But don’t sulk quite yet: The silver lining is that two other Coachella heavy hitters have been added to the Cosmopolitan’s Spring Concert Series lineup that week.
Tegan and Sara will replace Phoenix at the pool on Wednesday, April 10. Tickets cost $30.
On Saturday, April 13, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs will take over the pool; those tickets also cost $30.
Tickets to the Spring Concert Series are on sale now and are available online at cosmopolitanlasvegas.com or through Ticketmaster.
The Cosmopolitan will also be selling weekend passes for the Spring Concert Series for $141 for April 10-13. Those go on sale Friday, March 1. Packages for April 17-20 are sold out.
