Surprise guests have become tradition at the Coachella Valley Arts and Music Festival, and weekend one was complete with appearances from fan favorites like Camilla Cabello, Becky G and Joe Jonas.
The question on many viewers’ minds leading up to the second festival weekend of 2026 was: Who will the remaining guest performers be?
Although some artists including Teddy Swims brought up familiar faces from weekend one like David Lee Roth from Van Halen, other performers had some surprises left in store.
Here are a few of this year’s weekend two reveals that got fans buzzing online:
1. Madonna, Terry Crews and Geena Davis join Sabrina Carpenter
Carpenter’s set brought in theatrical elements, with Madonna ascending from below the stage to perform her hits “Vogue,” “Like a Prayer” and finishing off with an unreleased track that’s rumored to be on Madonna’s upcoming record. Geena Davis appeared for a monologue as an older version of Carpenter, and Terry Crews delivered a comedic cameo, a callback to his iconic “White Chicks” role.

2. LISA from Blackpink
Anyma finally performed on Friday, April 18, after his set was canceled due to strong winds during weekend one. The Italian-American producer brought out LISA to perform their collaboration “Bad Angel” publicly for the first time. The Blackpink member wore a flowing white outfit while interacting with a massive digital “hologram” only viewable from the official Coachella livestream. Viewers said the creative production made the K-pop star’s special appearance “magical” and “incredible.”

@hermoine_0 Iconic Moment: Lisa Makes Surprise Coachella Appearance with Anyma! History was made tonight at the Coachella main stage as Lisa officially joined Anyma for the live debut of their hit collaboration, “Bad Angel.” After the disappointment of last week’s weather cancellation, the “ÆDEN” world premiere finally happened in full glory, and the highlight was undoubtedly the queen of LLOUD stepping onto the stage.

This marks a massive milestone for Lisa as a solo artist and for the electronic music scene, proving once again that she is a global force who can dominate any stage.
