About Coachella 2026

Coachella's 25th edition ran across two April weekends at the Empire Polo Club, and sold out within a week of the September announcement. Sabrina Carpenter, Justin Bieber and Karol G took the Friday, Saturday and Sunday headline slots on the Coachella Stage — Karol G becoming the first Latina artist ever to headline the festival — with Anyma billed alongside them as a fourth headliner.

Underneath the marquee, the 2026 bill was unusually deep in reunions and elder statesmen: David Byrne and Devo, Black Flag and Iggy Pop, Interpol and The Strokes, Deep Dish reunited on the Quasar Stage. The tents carried the discoveries, as always — the Sonora and Gobi lineups in particular read like a well-curated club week rather than a festival undercard.

Not everything went to plan. Severe weather forced the cancellation of Anyma's first-weekend set; he returned to close the weekend with a surprise Do Lab appearance alongside Marlon Hoffstadt, then delivered the full production on weekend two. Jack White was a late addition to the schedule, playing weekend one only, with Kacey Musgraves taking the same Mojave slot the following Saturday.

Expect electronic, house, dance and indie rock across 168 acts.

Lineup last updated July 26, 2026

The headliners

  • Sabrina Carpenter Former Disney kid turned arena-filling pop force, trading in winking innuendo, retro-leaning production, and hooks engineered for maximum singalong — fully caffeinated live.
  • Anyma Matteo Milleri's solo project, pairing cavernous melodic techno with AI-rendered visual worlds built for the biggest screens available — half DJ set, half sci-fi planetarium.
  • Justin Bieber Two decades removed from the YouTube covers, still one of pop's most recognizable voices — lately drifting toward loose, atmospheric R&B.
  • Karol G Medellín's biggest export since the reggaeton boom — a stadium-scale performer whose records mix perreo, bachata, and unabashed pop, delivered with world-tour polish.

Up-and-comers to catch early

  • Gigi Perez Spare, devotional guitar songs about grief and faith — the kind of set that quiets a tent down.
  • Freak Slug Woozy Manchester bedroom pop, sung like she's half-asleep and completely certain.
  • NewDad Galway shoegaze with a persistent undertow of dread; a natural fit for a dark tent in the afternoon.
  • Flowerovlove Sunlit, unbothered indie pop from a songwriter who started very young and never got cynical.
  • Blondshell Plainspoken, furious guitar songs about bad relationships and worse coping mechanisms.
  • Royel Otis Sydney duo whose breezy jangle-pop has a sideline in covers that keep outrunning the originals.
  • Bini The eight-piece that broke Filipino pop internationally — one of several first-time Coachella performers in 2026.

Other acts worth planning around

  • David Byrne Still turning the concert itself into choreography — marching ensembles, no cables, nothing where you expect it.
  • Devo Akron's de-evolution theorists, whose jerky synth-punk turned out to be far more prophetic than satirical.
  • Black Flag The band that effectively invented American hardcore's touring model, on a festival stage in the desert.
  • Iggy Pop Six decades in and still the most physically committed frontman anyone has produced.
  • Deep Dish Dubfire and Sharam's Grammy-winning partnership, reunited for the Quasar Stage.
  • Laufey Standards-shaped songs for the people who found jazz through her — warm, wry, quietly virtuosic.
  • Turnstile Baltimore hardcore that long ago stopped being only hardcore; one of the most reliable live sets going.
  • Kacey Musgraves Took the Saturday Mojave slot on weekend two, in place of weekend one's Jack White.

Coachella 2026 lineup FAQ

Who headlined Coachella 2026?

Sabrina Carpenter headlined Friday, Justin Bieber headlined Saturday, and Karol G headlined Sunday — the first Latina artist to headline the festival. Anyma was billed as a fourth headliner on the Friday Coachella Stage.

When was Coachella 2026?

April 10–12 and April 17–19, 2026, at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, California. It was the festival's 25th edition.

Did the same artists play both Coachella weekends?

Almost all of them, yes. The exceptions in 2026: Jack White played weekend one and Kacey Musgraves played weekend two in the same Saturday Mojave slot, and the Quasar Stage ran a completely different Saturday bill each weekend — David Guetta, Afrojack and Shimza, and Joezi on weekend one; a DJ Snake takeover with Knock2, RL Grime, Flosstradamus, Madeon and Devault on weekend two.

How many acts played Coachella 2026?

168 across eight stages — the Coachella Stage, Outdoor Theatre, Sonora, Gobi, Mojave, Sahara and Yuma tents, and the Quasar Stage.

What happened to Anyma's first-weekend set?

It was cancelled after severe weather hit the festival grounds. Anyma returned later that weekend for a surprise Do Lab set with Marlon Hoffstadt, and performed the full headline production on weekend two with guest appearances from Lisa, Joji, Matt Bellamy and Swae Lee.

When is Coachella 2027?

Goldenvoice had not announced 2027 dates when this guide was last updated. Coachella has run across two April weekends at the Empire Polo Club every year since 2012, apart from the 2020 and 2021 cancellations, and the 2026 lineup was revealed in September 2025.
