Travis Scott‘s Coachella performance went smoothly for the most part — but his brief curfew overrun ended up costing the festival promoters a $20,000 fine.
Travis was the headliner for both Saturday nights on the two-weekend festival earlier this month. On the first of the two Saturdays, his set ended up going five minutes past the midnight curfew, which TMZ reveals caused Goldenvoice to be hit with the five-figure fee.
The charges were previously established as part of a contract between Goldenvoice and officials in the City of Indio: a daily penalty of $20k for the first five minutes past curfew, followed by an additional $1k for every minute thereafter.
However, the overage wasn’t exactly Travis’ fault. Sources tell the outlet that the act before him, Green Day, started 15 minutes late due to a fireworks issue, which in turn caused a five minute delay (and subsequent five minute overage) for the Houston star.

The fine for Travis’ set ended up being the only one between both weekends of Coachella and this past weekend’s Stage Coach festival, however, so the promoters likely aren’t sweating it.
