Coachella 2026 will be poptastic.
Justin Bieber, Sabrina Carpenter and Karol G will headline next year’s Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, to be presented April 10-12 and April 17-19 at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, CA.
All three are at the top of their respective games. Bieber announced his return with the surprise album Swag, which bowed at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 in July and launched 16 songs onto the Billboard Hot 100, lifting his tally to 121 career entries on the singles chart — the 10th-most of all time.

Carpenter roared to No. 1 earlier this month with her new album Man’s Best Friend, for her second leader, following Short n’ Sweet in 2024. Karol G, meanwhile, made history last year as the first Latina named woman of the year at the annual Billboard Women In Music ceremony.

Other notable lineup details include Anyma, the Italian-American techno and melodic techno producer who has blown minds and melted faces with his residency at the Sphere. He’ll deliver a world premiere in what’s billed as “Anyma presents Æden” and is hyped under the day-by-day breakdown.
At the very bottom of the poster is the curious mention, “The Bunker Debut Of RADIOHEAD KID A MNESIA.” In 2021, Radiohead reissued their 2000 album Kid A and 2001’s Amnesiac as a compilation project titled Kid A Mnesia, so it’s possible fans will get to hear the classic projects in their entirety, just in time for the latter’s 25th anniversary.
Organizers Goldenvoice, a subsidiary of AEG Presents, have, once again, booked a deep pool of talent to satisfy every taste.
The first day of festivities will feature the likes of The XX, Disclosure, Teddy Swims and Devo. Day two will rumble on with performances by The Strokes, GIVĒON, Addison Rae, Labrinth, David Byrne and others. And day three will rollout with Young Thug, Kaskade, BIGBANG and many more.
Passes will go on sale Friday, Sept. 19 at 1pm ET.
