Travis Scott is scheduled to be one of the headliners of the 2022 Coachella festival, and 20,000 people have signed a Change.org petition asking the promoters to remove him from the lineup.

The petition is titled, “Remove Travis Scott as a Goldenvoice performer.” Goldenvoice is the promoter for the event. Coachella will be held April 15-17, and April 22-24, 2022 in Indio, California. Due to the pandemic, the event was canceled this year, and in 2020.

“With the recent tragic and unnecessary death at Travis Scott’s Astroworld concert, due to Scott’s own gross negligence and sheer lack of compassion for human life, we ask AEG, Paul Tollett, and Goldenvoice to remove him as performer at all of their festivals,” petition creator Sendero Secreto commented.

As previously reported, Scott was scheduled to headline this weekend’s Day N Vegas Festival, which is also promoted by Goldenvoice, but he has cancelled his performance. He is being replaced by Post Malone.
