Justin Bieber, Sabrina Carpenter and Karol G headline Coachella 2026

Coachella 2026 was headlined by Sabrina Carpenter, Justin Bieber and Karol G. The lineup was announced in September 2025, and the festival took place over two weekends, April 10–12 and April 17–19, 2026, at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, California.

Each headliner took one night of the weekend. Carpenter closed Fridays, Bieber Saturdays and Karol G Sundays. For Bieber it was the first time on the official main bill, after earlier guest appearances at the festival. Carpenter had played Coachella in 2024, and Karol G had performed on the main stage in 2022. Other acts on the poster included The Strokes, The xx, Turnstile, Central Cee and Iggy Pop.

The lineup mattered because Coachella is one of the world's most-watched music festivals, and its headliners often set the tone for the summer festival season. It also sets the benchmark against which later announcements, such as the 2027 bill, are compared.
