Two of the three Coachella 2027 headliners are on a lot of phones in India. The festival has put Tame Impala on top of Saturday and SZA on top of Sunday, with Dua Lipa closing Friday. All three play both weekends, so the same lineup runs on 9 to 11 April and again on 16 to 18 April 2027 at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, California.
Passes go on sale on Friday, 13 November, at 12pm Pacific (1:30am IST on Saturday, 14 November) through coachella.com. The festival is also selling pass bundles with hotels and shuttles. Prices were not published with the lineup, so check the passes page before you plan around a number.
The days that matter if you live on Blonde and Currents
Saturday is the indie day. Tame Impala headline, and the bill under them includes Phoebe Bridgers, Weezer, Robyn, Magdalena Bay, Underworld and Måneskin, alongside dance names such as Tiësto, Martin Garrix and Charlotte de Witte.
Sunday is the R&B and rap day. SZA closes. Don Toliver, Becky G, Caroline Polachek, Four Tet, The Neighbourhood, Empire of the Sun, Chase & Status and BABYMONSTER are on the same day.
Friday has Dua Lipa on top, with Madonna, Steve Lacy, Kehlani, Zara Larsson, JISOO, Peggy Gou and Leon Thomas. Steve Lacy and Kehlani are the two names there that sit closest to the R&B end of our readers' taste.
Daddy Yankee is also on the poster, listed separately from the three days.
Why it counts for this side of the world
YouTube is the exclusive livestream partner for the festival's 15th year, with both weekends available live and on demand. Because Coachella runs on Pacific time, headline sets land in the early hours of the next morning in India. The stream schedule had not been released at the time of writing.
Neither headline is a surprise to anyone who followed the rumours through the autumn. What only became official on the poster is the detail: who plays which night, and who sits underneath.
