Coachella 2026 Sells Out Seven Months Before the Festival
This comes after three years of the festival not selling out
Coachella 2026 is officially sold out of all pass types for both weekends. The mega festival, which is owned by AEG, announced its lineup on September 16. Tickets went on sale September 19, and they were sold out by September 22. The dates for the festival are April 10-12 for weekend 1 and April 17-19 for weekend 2.
Coachella ticket sales:
Waitlists are available for general admission and VIP tickets, in addition to multiple camping and lodging options that are sold out as well.
Coachella did not sell out both weekends in 2023-2025.
The September lineup announcement is much earlier than usual. Last year, the lineup was announced in November. The lineup historically came in January prior to that.
Coachella 2026 lineup:
Justin Bieber’s Saturday headlining set, which was surely a draw for ticket buyers, will be his first live performance in the US since 2022.
Bieber reportedly became the highest-paid Coachella headliner, earning $10 million across both weekends.
Sabrina Carpenter and Karol G will headline on Friday and Sunday, respectively.
Anyma will premiere a new audiovisual show, Æden, in the fourth headlining slot, which has been a part of the lineup since 2022.
