JUSTIN BIEBER AND SABRINA CARPENTER TO HEAD COACHELLA 2026

Sabrina Carpenter, Justin Bieber, and Karol G have been revealed as the headliners for next year’s Coachella festival, set for April 10-12 and April 17-19 at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, California. It marks the first time any of the three artists will top the bill at the iconic event, which draws around 250,000 fans to the California desert. Sabrina will open the weekend as Friday’s headliner, while Bieber and Karol G will take the Saturday and Sunday slots.

Also confirmed for the line-up are Teddy Swims, Katseye, Central Cee, Young Thug, Major Lazer, and CMAT. UK acts will be well represented too, with Disclosure, Wet Leg, Lambrini Girls, Little Simz, and FKA Twigs all set to perform. The festival, held annually at the Empire Polo Club in Indio since 2002, runs across two weekends. Tickets for the festival will go on sale very soon. Fans can register for access on the official Coachella website. The sales will begin on Friday, September 19, at 11am Pacific Time.

Coachella is known not only for its music but also for its star-studded audience. Last year saw Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner among those in attendance, along with Bieber and his wife Hailey. That edition featured performances from Lady Gaga, Charli XCX, Travis Scott, Post Malone, and Green Day, though it was also marked by long delays linked to a new camping reservation system.

Reactions to the 2025 line-up have been mixed. Some fans praised it as “insane” and said they were determined to get tickets, while others were far less impressed—one critic on X described it as “the worst Coachella lineup in the history of the festival.”
