It’s official, music festival organisers around the globe are having a really tricky time.
What makes us say that? Well, you do remember the fire that broke out at the Ultra Music Festival in Miami don’t you? It’s now Coachella 2019’s turn to make news for fire break-out at the event!
On the first weekend of the event, a fire broke out in the mobile shower unit near the center of the festival grounds, incinerating one trailer beyond repair and damaging one more.

The fire seems to be a minor one and broke out at 2:00 AM. Immediate help came from the Riverside Country Fire Department, who ensured the fire was put out within thirty minutes. No fatalities or injuries have been reported, thankfully.
The Coachella Music and Arts Festival is far away from making news for such reasons, but it is unfortunate that such an event occurred this time. The first weekend of the event has come to a close and the second weekend, happening from the 19th to 21st of April, promises a better show!
