If you’re after party music on the biggest stage possible, look no further than Post Malone’s upcoming Coachella set. The pop-rap-country phenom will close out the music festival this weekend with a show of discography-spanning hits.
Here’s everything we know—plus some pretty decent hunches—about Malone’s headlining Coachella performance.
What day is Post Malone performing at Coachella?
You can catch him during the fest’s second weekend on Sunday, April 20; he already hit the stage during weekend one on Sunday, April 13.
What time will Post Malone play the Coachella stage?
Post Malone will take the stage at 10:25pm on Sunday. There are a couple of sets on other stages (Polo & Pan, XG, Dixon back-to-back with Jimi Jules) that technically start later, but for all practical purposes, Malone has the honor of closing out Coachella.
Has Post Malone played Coachella before?
Yes. Though he’s only officially appeared on the Coachella lineup once before, he’s no stranger to the Empire Polo Club: In 2018 he played the Sahara tent, and he returned in 2023 as an unannounced guest during Bad Bunny’s headlining set. And—given his recent turn toward country pop—he actually played last year’s Stagecoach Festival, held on the same grounds as Coachella and just a week later.
Any news on Post Malone’s setlist for Coachella?
We don’t know exactly what Posty will perform during his second weekend set at Coachella, but we can certainly look to his first weekend set for a pretty good indication. For starters, we’d say it’s pretty certain you’ll hear a career-spanning mix of hits; “Congratulations,” “Sunflower,” “rockstar,” “Psycho,” “White Iverson” and “Better Now” have all been fixtures in recent setlists, including last weekend at Coachella. F-1 Trillion opener “Wrong Ones” was on the set too—and since that album released well after his Stagecoach set last year (which consisted entirely of country covers), it comprised nearly a third of the 19-song setlist.
What special guests might show up?
Well let’s maybe start with which guests won’t show up—at least on paper. Malone’s two Coachella sets technically kick off his “Big Ass Stadium Tour” with Jelly Roll and Sierra Ferrell, but the tour poster very specifically notes that neither of them will appear for the Indio dates. (Jelly Roll, however, is headlining Stagecoach next week.)
Though Posty’s weekend one setlist was full of songs whose recorded versions feature famous collaborators (Morgan Wallen, Quavo, 21 Savage and fellow Coachella performer Ty Dolla $ign, among them), none of them were there on stage. Maybe weekend two will be different, but so far headliners have largely steered clear of splashy special guests; make sure to tune into the Charli XCX, L.A. Phil and Yo Gabba Gabba! sets if that’s what you’re after. In other words, don’t hold your breath that he’ll link up with the surviving Nirvana members again as he did during the SNL 50th anniversary special (though Dave Grohl did appear on Saturday of weekend two with the LA Phil).
Can I watch a live stream of Post Malone?
The live stream schedule is up and the good news is you’ll be able to watch Post Malone live at 10:25pm on Sunday on the Main Stage feed below.
