Local officials are increasing concern about the safety and security of concert attendees at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival. Rep. Raul Ruiz, (D) Indio, has proposed legislation to automatically implement federal flight restrictions over outdoor concerts of over 30,000 people. This comes after a number of incidents last year, including an emergency landing by a plane flying over the crowd due to an issue with its banners. The legislation could be approved by both the Senate and the House and signed by the president in time for Coachela 2027.
