As the biggest festival in the U.S., Coachella brings in nearly $100 million for promoter Goldenvoice and its parent company AEG. In March, news surfaced that Goldenvoice had postponed Coachella to October from its annual April date due to the global health crisis.

Its three-day country music sister festival Stagecoach was rescheduled for Oct. 23-25.

Bloomberg did not mention whether Stagecoach performers were also being asked to shift their dates.
