Three First-Time Headliners
The desert is heating up for Coachella 2026, and for the first time ever, Justin Bieber, Sabrina Carpenter, and Karol G will headline the iconic California festival. The three-day event, held over two weekends (April 10–12 and April 17–19) at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, will see each artist take the main stage on separate nights: Carpenter on Friday, Bieber on Saturday, and Karol G closing out Sunday.
This marks a major milestone for all three stars. Bieber will finally make his long-awaited full Coachella debut, Carpenter returns after her breakout 2024 set with chart-topping success behind her, and Karol G will make history as the first Latina headliner in the festival’s 20+ year history.
A Packed & Diverse Lineup 🎤
Beyond the big three, Coachella 2026 is stacked with talent across genres. Fans can look forward to performances from Disclosure, The xx, David Byrne, FKA Twigs, Young Thug, Central Cee, Ethel Cain, Giveon, Wet Leg, Sexyy Red, Katseye, Iggy Pop, Turnstile, and Major Lazer.
Electronic fans will also be treated to a late-night set from Anyma, who debuts his ambitious Æden project as an additional headliner slot. Meanwhile, rumors swirl around “Nine Inch Noize,” a surprise collaboration between Nine Inch Nails and Boys Noize, listed on the official poster.
On top of the music, festival-goers can expect the signature Coachella experience: celebrity sightings, fashion moments, and viral surprise guest appearances.
Tickets, Dates & What to Expect 🎟️
Coachella will run across two weekends in April 2026:
- Weekend 1: April 10–12
- Weekend 2: April 17–19
Ticket sales are expected to open soon, with fans encouraged to register for passes now through Coachella’s official site.
The festival is notorious for selling out within hours, and with three first-time headliners at the top of their careers, demand is already skyrocketing. Fans on social media are split, with some calling it “the best lineup in years” and others less impressed. But one thing is certain — Coachella 2026 will be one of the most talked-about music events of the year.
