According to a recent report from Rolling Stone, Coachella has likely booked two of its three headliners for next year’s festival. Sources indicate that both Sabrina Carpenter and Karol G are set to perform, with plans currently underway to finalize a third headliner.
While Coachella organizers, Goldenvoice, have yet to comment, festival goers can expect the official lineup to be announced in the coming months. Historically, the festival’s lineup is released in January, but 2025’s lineup was revealed two months early, in November.
If the rumors hold true, this will mark the second appearance for both artists at the iconic California festival. Carpenter debuted in 2024 with her hit “Espresso,” while Karol G first took the stage at Coachella in 2022.
Coachella 2026 is scheduled for April 10-12 and April 17-19. Tickets will be available for purchase here.
The previous festival, Coachella 2025, featured headliners like Lady Gaga, Green Day, and Post Malone, along with notable performances from artists such as Charli XCX, Travis Scott, Beth Gibbons, and many more.
Among the standout moments was a brief feud between Charli XCX and Green Day fans, igniting after Charli wore a “Miss Should Be Headliner” sash at an afterparty following her performance just before Green Day closed the main stage.
Kneecap also made headlines for their performance, where their livestream was interrupted after they led the crowd in a chant supporting a free Palestine, which raised significant controversy regarding freedom of speech at the festival. This incident even led to tour cancellations and serious discussions around their message at the festival.
