Who will headline Coachella 2026?
There is a definite pop flavor to this year’s main shows at the Empire Polo Club. Sabrina Carpenter tops the bill on Friday, marking the singer’s second time performing at the festival. She debuted her hit song Espresso at Coachella on the same day it was released, in 2024.
Justin Bieber headlines Saturday, marking the Canadian singer’s first full performance since he had to cancel a world tour four years ago due to health concerns. Bieber’s collection will likely continue to rely on his Swag albums, as well as previous albums by Justice and Believe.
Karol G performs during halftime of the game between the Kansas City Chiefs and Los Angeles Chargers at Arena Corinthians on September 5, 2025, in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
Both weekends will conclude with a reggaeton concert, with Grammy Award-winning international superstar Karol G performing every Sunday. The Colombian star, who will be making her second appearance at Coachella, is the first Latina to headline the famous festival.
Who else is performing at Coachella this year?
Arguably one of the most anticipated performances came from Young Thug, as the Atlanta rapper made his first major festival appearance since the conclusion of his high-profile legal battle. He is set to release tracks from his new album titled DBC (The Day Before Coachella).
Pusha T and Malice’s recent reunion at Clipse will continue with a Sunday slot, while DJ Snake is among the featured DJs hopping on the Quasar stage.
Although it’s fair to say that the festival is no longer the alternative, music-focused event it once was, there is no shortage of guitar-oriented acts hitting stages in Indio, including some big names returning to the art scene. New York indie stars The Strokes will play new tracks from their soon-to-be-released album, Reality Awaits, as The xx return live stateside after an absence of nearly a decade.
Veteran stars Iggy Pop and David Byrne play both weekends, with Byrne appearing on the outdoor stage and Iggy scheduled to appear on the Mohave stage.
Elsewhere, there’s big energy for girl group BINI, as the eight-piece group is set to become the first Filipino band to play at the festival. Meanwhile, Katseye will make her first appearance since the departure of group members Hybe and Geffen.
