With Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival just around the corner, things are heating up in Indio, Calif. Lady Gaga, Green Day, Travis Scott and Post Malone are headlining the main Coachella stage at the festival taking place over the next two weekends, April 11-13 and April 18-20.
Missy Elliott, Benson Boone, LISA, GloRilla, Tyla, Artemas and more performing on both Fridays ahead of the “Rain on Me” singer’s night-closing performances. The Saturday lineups will be led by the “American Idiot” rock band and also feature Charli XCX, Clairo, ENHYPEN, Jimmy Eat World, T-Pain and more. Posty leads the Sunday shows, and Megan Thee Stallion, Zedd, JENNIE of BLACKPINK, Beabadoobee, Ty Dolla $ign, Rema, Shaboozey and more will perform on the final days of both weekends, wrapping up the festival.
Ed Sheeran and Weezer were also recently added to this year’s lineup, both at the Mojave tent, shortly after FKA Twigs dropped out of the fest due to “ongoing visa issues.” Additionally, Anitta had to cancel her Coachella performance this year, citing “unexpected personal reasons.”
In addition to the star-studded lineup during the festival itself, there are countless parties and events in between sets and after hours where fans can enjoy even more action — from Neon Carnival and Revolve Festival to White Claw Sessions powered by Billboard and beyond.
