Excitement and uncertainty preceded Justin Bieber's performance as the headlining star on the second day of the Coachella festival, which also marked his major return to the stage. He opened the set with the song "All I Can Take" and walked down a large oval structure in the middle of the stage—the only major piece of set design—wearing a simple red hoodie and sunglasses. The song quickly transitioned into "Speed Demon" as the stage was bathed in red light and he danced back and forth. He then went over to his laptop, which was displaying a video on screen while simultaneously streaming live for those watching from home. He called on fans to leave requests in the chat, then performed the songs "Go Baby" and "Butterflies."

Some of the audience felt the performance seemed minimally engaged, with less live singing than they expected from a headliner at one of the world's largest music festivals. Comments on social media suggested the set felt more like a DJ or visual performance than a classic concert.
