Coachella 2027 Announces Lineup With Dua Lipa, Tame Impala and SZA Headlining
Coachella has revealed its 2027 lineup, with Dua Lipa, Tame Impala and SZA set to headline the festival across two weekends next April. The announcement brings together a mix of pop heavyweights, electronic music favourites, indie acts and returning festival regulars for the annual event at Empire Polo Club in Indio, California.
Each headliner will close out a different night. Dua Lipa will take the main stage Friday, April 9, marking her first full performance at Coachella. Her only previous appearance at the festival was as a guest during Martin Garrix’s set in 2017, before the release of her debut album.
Saturday belongs to Tame Impala, who will return for their second Coachella headlining appearance after topping the bill in 2019. The Australian project, led by Kevin Parker, previously performed at the festival in 2011, 2013 and 2015.
SZA will close out Sunday night, rounding out a headline trio that brings three very different sounds to the top of the poster.
The lineup has plenty of other big names competing for attention. Madonna is among the festival’s most prominent bookings, appearing in the dance tent rather than as a headliner. Phoebe Bridgers, Weezer, Robyn, Zara Larsson, Steve Lacy, Peggy Gou, Kehlani, Tiësto, Kygo, Don Toliver, Dom Dolla, Four Tet and The Neighbourhood are among the other notable acts.
There are plenty of additional names worth checking out, including Måneskin, Jisoo, Caroline Polachek, Remi Wolf, Tove Lo, MUNA, Underworld, Chase & Status, Victoria Monét, Leon Bridges, Magdalena Bay, Freddie Gibbs, The Avalanches, Social Distortion, American Football and The Damned. Pinegrove will make an appearance after spending much of the past few years on hiatus.
One of the more unexpected bookings comes from Daddy Yankee, who has been given a special “In the Desert” billing. The festival will have another attraction away from the main stages, too. Following last year’s Radiohead installation, the bunker will feature a Justice exhibit titled Blinded By The Lights.
Coachella 2027 will run April 9-11 and April 16-18, with the same lineup performing across both weekends. The festival will once again partner with YouTube for its livestream, marking the 15th year of the partnership. Viewers will be able to watch selected performances from both weekends online.
Tickets go on sale Friday, November 13, at 12 p.m. PT. General admission passes for both weekends are listed at Tier 2 pricing, starting at $779, with a three-day shuttle pass included. VIP passes start at $1,399 for Weekend 1 and $1,349 for Weekend 2.
