Coachella has revealed its 2027 lineup, with Dua Lipa, Tame Impala and SZA topping the bill across two weekends in Indio, California, in April 2027. Goldenvoice, the promoter behind the festival, unveiled the full poster late on Tuesday 10 November 2026, ending weeks of speculation about who would headline next spring’s desert gathering.
The announcement confirms the three names that had been circulating for weeks. TMZ reported on 30 October that Dua Lipa, SZA and Tame Impala would headline, and SZA herself had teased the billing to fans on her private Instagram earlier in the week. The official poster, billed “The return to innocence”, now makes it formal.

Three headliners, three very different Friday-to-Sunday arcs
Dua Lipa headlines Friday on both weekends, Tame Impala takes Saturday and SZA closes the festival on Sunday. The split gives each day a distinct identity: pop spectacle to open, psych-rock scale in the middle and alternative R&B to close.
For Dua Lipa, the slot is a first headline appearance at Coachella, and it caps a run of stadium-scale touring that has made her one of the most bankable live acts in pop. Tame Impala, the Australian project led by Kevin Parker, brings a headline set built for the main stage’s scale, while SZA’s Sunday closing set follows her own tease of the lineup earlier in the week.
Madonna’s return steals the second line
The biggest name on the poster may not be a headliner at all. Madonna will perform her own set in the Dance Tent on both Friday nights, her first Coachella performance since 2005. She appeared at the festival last year alongside Sabrina Carpenter, but the 2027 booking is a full set of her own.
Madonna’s billing sits just below the headliners on the poster, and it is the detail that has driven much of the reaction since the lineup dropped. Daddy Yankee, billed separately as performing “in the desert”, adds a reggaeton centrepiece to a poster that leans heavily on pop, dance and Latin music.
A day-by-day guide to the names that matter
Friday’s bill beyond Dua Lipa and Madonna includes Zara Larsson, Steve Lacy, JISOO, Diljit Dosanjh, Peggy Gou, Kehlani, Leon Thomas and Giorgio Moroder. Saturday pairs Tame Impala with Phoebe Bridgers, Weezer, Tiësto, Martin Garrix, Robyn, Måneskin, NCT and SB19, the Filipino group confirmed on the second day of both weekends.
Sunday closes with SZA alongside Don Toliver, DOM DOLLA, Kygo, Four Tet, Empire of the Sun, Becky G, BABYMONSTER, Amelie Lens, Sara Landry and Remi Wolf, among others. The breadth of the bill, from K-pop acts such as JISOO, NCT and BABYMONSTER to legacy electronic names such as Four Tet and Underworld, is the widest the festival has attempted in years.
The lineup also matters for fans planning around the I’m a Celebrity 2026 lineup, which ITV announced earlier this week, as both announcements land in the same crowded week for entertainment news.
Tickets, travel and the Friday sale
Passes go on sale at noon PT on Friday 13 November 2026 through the festival’s official website, with hotel packages already available. YouTube will livestream both weekends, a fixture of the festival in recent years that lets the lineup reach far beyond Indio.
Demand is likely to be intense. Coachella’s general sale has sold through quickly in past years, and the combination of three first-time headliners, Madonna’s return and a deep undercard gives Goldenvoice one of its strongest selling stories in some time. Fans who miss out on passes will still be able to watch the headline sets live online.
The festival’s return to the Empire Polo Club also keeps its place in the spring calendar secure. Two weekends, six days of music and a poster built around acts who rarely share a bill is exactly the formula Coachella has traded on for two decades, and the 2027 edition looks like one of its most deliberate attempts yet to balance heritage names with the acts dominating streaming now.
What the Coachella 2027 lineup tells us about festivals next year
The 2027 poster reads as a statement about where big festivals are heading. Three headliners who have never topped the Coachella bill, a legacy icon in a tent rather than on the main stage, and a genuinely global undercard suggest promoters are betting on breadth over a single unifying act.
It also shows how much the announcement itself has become an event. The lineup leaked in stages, from TMZ’s late-October report to SZA’s own tease, and the official reveal still landed as the day’s biggest music story. For Goldenvoice, that slow build is now part of the product, and the Friday ticket sale is the payoff.
