Zedd had fun with his friends on stage during his performance at Coachella in the desert this weekend.
This Sunday, the German DJ brought over several prolific artists like Maren Morris, John Mayer, Elley Duhé, and Bea Miller to join him in appeasing the crowds at the Outdoor Theatre.
The record producer, who has been a household name for over 15 years, performed for the 5th time at this year's Coachella. Ahead of the show, he took to Instagram to share a throwback of all the times he played at the event and how he has evolved as a performer. At the end of the montage, he teased fans by saying this year is going to be his most special show yet.

Everything we know about Zedd's performance this year and a look back at where he started
John Mayer delivered the live rendition of several of his hit tracks, including New Light and Stop This Train, while Zedd switched from the DJ booth to the drums. The pair also performed Automatic Yes from Zedd's 2024 LP, Telos.
Elley Duhé first performed Happy Now alongside Zedd, and Bea Miller followed suit shortly after to deliver live renditions of Out of Time and Tangerine Rays. Later, the DJ was joined by Marren Morris, who cast a spell on the crowd with his song, The Middle.
Zedd, whose real name is Anton Zaslavski, also brought out Julia Michaels, The Ollam, and B.C. Manjunath to perform alongside him. He later took to X to call the shows one of the best he's ever done, as he penned:
"WOW COACHELLA. One of my favorite shows of my life. Huge thanks to John Mayer, Maren Morris, Bea Miller, Julia Michaels, Elley Duhe, The Ollam and B.C. Manjunath for joining me tonight. See you next weekend for some more surprises."
Rolling Stone broke the news earlier this week that the country star would be joining the DJ on stage:
“Zedd has got a lot up his sleeve for this year’s Coachella,” the outlet reported. “He is the king of the special guests.”
Zaslavski first took to the stage for Coachella in 2012 at the Sahara Tent, where his name was at the bottom of the lineup. In 2014, he took to the same stage but for a bigger crowd. Two years later, he returned to the festival to perform at Outdoor Theatre, and in 2019, he had a major breakthrough with the festival when he played at the Coachella mainstage.
At the time of writing, it remains unclear just what "surprises" Zaslavski has in store for fans.
