Coachella is back with one of their biggest line-ups yet! This will be the 18th year that the festival invades sunny Indio, California for back to back weekends of incredible music.
Radiohead, Beyoncé, and Kendrick Lamar were leaked back in August but they’re just at the beginning of the knock-out lineup. Fans will also be able to see Dillon Francis, Martin Garrix, Empire of the Sun, Justice, Porter Robinson & Madeon, Kaytranda and many, many more. One of the biggest surprises of the lineup: Hans Zimmer, the German composer behind the soundtracks of movies like “The Lion King”, “The Dark Knight”, and “The Pirates of the Caribbean” series.
Recent years have hosted classic reunion acts, but this year’s lineup seems to be looking toward the future of music. It’s arguably one of the more mainstream and hip-hop heavy lineups the festival has had, but fans of the genre will be thrilled with acts like Travis Scott, ScHoolboy Q, Gucci Mane, and Mac Miller performing.
The event takes place April 14-16th, and 21-23rd. As usual, tickets sold out almost instantly. If you’re lucky enough to snag one of these high-demand tickets you’re in for the weekend of a lifetime!
