Coachella 2026 has come and gone—but with the lineup already out for next year, it’s time to start getting hyped for Coachella 2027. The Indio music festival typically marks one of the earliest live music weekends across the country (and maybe we’re a bit biased, but we’d say its lineup outclasses nearly every other music festival, too). The 2027 edition will inevitably bring with it plenty of bands and DJs to see and amazing things to eat and drink between sets (spoiler: food from some of the best restaurants in Los Angeles). Here’s what you need to know.
What is Coachella?
The Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival is an annual music festival held over two weekends in Indio, just east of Palm Springs.
When is Coachella?
The festival is held over two weekends, April 9–11 and April 16–18, 2027.
Where is Coachella?
Not in the city of Coachella, surprisingly. Though most of us simply refer to the fest as Coachella, it’s technically the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival. So the event actually takes place at the Empire Polo Club, a large field in the city of Indio (which is part of the larger Coachella Valley, a desert area a couple of hours east of L.A. in Riverside County).
When do Coachella tickets go on sale?
Presale already came and went in the late spring. But additional passes will go on sale Friday, November 13 at noon (American Express card members can access them a day earlier, on Thursday, November 12 at noon).
How much are Coachella tickets?
We hope you’ve been saving up (all of the following prices include fees): Interestingly, general admission tickets—which during presale, went for $599 for weekend one and $549 for weekend two, including fees—are listed as sold out. So the lowest-priced tickets will be shuttle combo passes, which start at $779 (no weekend two discount this time). VIP costs $1,399 for weekend one and $1,349 for weekend two. (All of these prices tend to increase by $50 to $100 if you’re not among the first to grab tickets.) Check out the Coachella website for a wide range of camping rates, as well as info on the payment plan.
What does the Coachella lineup look like?
Though the lineup usually didn’t come along until January for years, the most recent editions have debuted their lineups in the fall—and that includes Coachella’s 2027 lineup. Dua Lipa, Tame Impala, SZA and Daddy Yankee will headline the 2027 edition of the festival, with additional sets from the likes of Madonna, Phoebe Bridgers, Don Toliver, Zara Larsson and Weezer, among many others.
Will Coachella be live streamed?
For 2027, expect live stream info to be announced in the months leading up to the fest. But for 2026, YouTube once again returned as the exclusive live stream partner. You were able to watch streams from seven stages, including a multiview feature that shows four stages at once. Streams typically rerun once between days of the fest, and after that you’ll only find brief clips of performances on the official Coachella channel.
