I will provide a concise update based on recent coverage.Big Bang delivered a long-awaited Coachella set in mid-April 2026, marking their return to the festival circuit after a delay tied to the group’s 20th anniversary and the pandemic. The performance featured a 60-minute, high-energy run through signature hits such as Bang Bang Bang and Fantastic Baby, with interludes that revisited early-era tracks like Lies and Haru Haru and included member spotlights (Taeyang, G-Dragon, and Daesung) as part of the 20th-anniversary celebration. Their Coachella run also signaled possible future activity, including talk of a world tour and a renewed full-group presence after years of individual projects.[1][2][3]
