‘Severance’ Star Adam Scott Recalls His ‘Terrible’ Coachella Experience

Adam Scott recently shared his frustrating experience at Coachella, describing it as far from enjoyable and even labeling it “terrible.”

During a recent appearance on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!”, the actor recounted attending the California music festival with his wife Naomi, their 17-year-old daughter Frankie, and a group of her friends.

Scott explained that the family primarily went to support the teenagers, dropping them off and picking them up on different days of the festival. However, on Saturday, he and his wife decided to stay for a while to catch The Strokes’ performance.

That moment turned out to be the highlight of his day, as he mentioned that watching the band was the only part he genuinely enjoyed.

Unfortunately, things took a turn after the performance. Scott noted that once the show ended, there were no comfortable spots to relax or wait between sets, making it challenging to take a break in the festival atmosphere.

He also had plans to stay longer for Justin Bieber’s headline set, which he described as a strong performance. Still, the surrounding experience proved to be exhausting.

Scott recounted a lengthy search for his daughter and her friends after the show. When they finally reunited, the difficulties didn’t end there. Exiting the festival turned into another major hurdle.

He mentioned that the group ended up stuck in traffic for hours trying to leave the parking area, with the exit process taking far longer than anticipated.

By the end of the night, Scott said they didn’t arrive home until early morning, which made the entire outing even more draining for him.

This year’s Coachella took place over two weekends in Indio, California, from April 10 to April 19. The lineup featured major performances from artists like Justin Bieber, Sabrina Carpenter, and Karol G.

Scott’s experience resonates with anyone who has attended a large festival but struggled with the crowd, waiting, and logistics. While Coachella is designed for energy and long nights, it clearly doesn’t suit everyone, especially parents trying to supervise a group.
