The Coachella 2027 lineup is the question everyone is asking, and the answer is starting to take shape. Industry reports have SZA, Dua Lipa and Tame Impala headlining the Empire Polo Club in Indio on April 9–11 and April 16–18, 2027, which is reason enough to get the group chat going.

Then there is the rest of the trip: coffee outside, a swim before getting ready, and a house where everyone compares their favorite sets over breakfast. Here is what is confirmed, what is still reported, and how to turn a Coachella weekend into a desert vacation.

Coachella 2027 lineup: the reported headliners

Lineup status, November 10, 2026: Coachella has not announced its 2027 lineup. The names below come from industry reporting, not from the festival, and day-by-day billing and set times are still to come. We will update this page the day the official lineup is out.

On October 30, HITS reported that SZA will join Dua Lipa and Tame Impala as the third headliner, completing a top line it first reported in September.

SZA: reported headliner

The newest name in the report, and the one that completed the top line. Live appearances have been rare since her Grand National tour with Kendrick Lamar, which makes a headline set in the desert a real event.

Dua Lipa: reported headliner

Dua Lipa has been on the Coachella stage before, as a guest during Martin Garrix’s set in 2017. This would be her first full set of her own at the festival.

Tame Impala: reported headliner

The most familiar name of the three. Tame Impala headlined in 2019 and played Coachella in 2011, 2013 and 2015 before that.

And Fred again..? HITS’ September column put him in the special slot at the bottom of the poster. Also reported, not announced.

When will the Coachella 2027 lineup come out?

Coachella has not said. The date has moved around in recent years: the 2024 lineup came out in January 2024, the 2025 lineup in November 2024, and the 2026 lineup in mid-September 2025, months earlier than usual. Going by that, the 2027 poster could arrive any week between now and January. Passes went on sale for 2027 back in May, before a single name was announced.

When it drops, this page gets the full headliner list, the notable names further down the poster, and which weekend days they play if Coachella publishes them. Watch coachella.com and the festival’s social channels for the official announcement.

Coachella 2027 dates: choose your weekend

  • Weekend 1: Friday, April 9, through Sunday, April 11, 2027.
  • Weekend 2: Friday, April 16, through Sunday, April 18, 2027.

Coachella says both weekends feature the same lineup, art, food and activities. A pass is good for the weekend you bought it for, and there are no single-day passes.

Weekend 1 is for the group that wants to see it before everyone else is talking about it. Weekend 2 lets you watch the first weekend’s coverage and fine-tune your plan. Either way, surprise guests are never guaranteed to repeat.

For an easy arrival, come Thursday and leave Monday: April 8–12 for Weekend 1 or April 15–19 for Weekend 2. Festival weekends often carry a minimum stay, so check the home you have in mind.

Stagecoach follows on April 23–25 at the same polo grounds, so the valley hosts three festival weekends in seventeen days. Homes near the festival go early. Our Stagecoach 2027 guide has that lineup.

Coachella 2027 tickets: where things stand

The 2027 advance sale is over. General Admission is no longer available, and the GA-plus-shuttle and VIP passes are waitlist only. Start with the official waitlist and resale links rather than a third-party site.

VIP adds the VIP areas at 12 Peaks and the Rose Garden: shaded seating, flushing restrooms, specialty food and drink and a full bar, subject to capacity. It does not mean artist access.

Getting there is sold separately: a weekend shuttle pass is $150 and preferred parking is $299. A Desert Luxury Estates reservation does not include festival passes, shuttle passes or parking.

Where to stay for Coachella 2027

Plenty of people search “Coachella Palm Springs,” but the festival is in Indio, at the east end of the valley. Choose the home around the trip you want to make at the end of the night.

Indio and La Quinta: closest to the festival

If the festival is the point of the trip, start with our homes close to the festival and La Quinta & Indio vacation rentals. Check the exact address and the bedroom layout, and plan how everyone gets there and back each night; a short drive in festival traffic is not a short walk.

Indian Wells and Palm Desert: room for the days in between

Indian Wells and Palm Desert suit a group that wants long lunches, shopping on El Paseo and pool time around the music. Both are on the shuttle network, including the two Park & Ride lots.

Rancho Mirage and Palm Springs: make it a longer escape

If the festival is one part of a longer stay, look at Rancho Mirage or Palm Springs vacation rentals. Palm Springs is the farthest base from Indio, so it works best when you are staying a few extra nights and want the town as much as the festival.

For a group, the best luxury is practical: enough real bedrooms, enough bathrooms that getting ready is not a queue, shade outside and one table everyone fits around. Every home we manage has a private pool; check each listing for its occupancy, parking and house rules.

The 2027 shuttle stops are already published

Worth knowing before you choose a house. Coachella’s 2027 shuttle list has fourteen stops, between about 5 and 25 miles from the festival:

  • Indio: Hampton Inn & Suites Indio.
  • La Quinta: La Quinta Resort & Club; Embassy Suites La Quinta.
  • Indian Wells: Indian Wells Tennis Garden (Park & Ride); Grand Hyatt Indian Wells.
  • Palm Desert: JW Marriott Desert Springs; Marriott Desert Springs Villas; Hampton Inn & Suites Palm Desert; Courtyard/Residence Inn Palm Desert; The Shops at Palm Desert (Park & Ride).
  • Rancho Mirage: Omni Rancho Las Palmas; Agua Caliente Casino Rancho Mirage; Westin Rancho Mirage.
  • Palm Springs: Palm Springs Convention Center.

The shuttle pass is sold on its own, so you do not need to stay at one of these hotels to ride. If you plan to drive to a stop, use one of the two Park & Ride lots; a hotel being on the list does not make its car park yours.

Shuttles run to the festival from 1 p.m. to 8 p.m., and the last ones back leave 60 minutes after the music ends. Plan both legs, home to stop and stop to home, before the first night, and check the shuttle FAQ again closer to April.

A better rhythm for a festival weekend

The set times will shape your evenings. The rest of the trip you can plan now:

  • Thursday: arrive, settle in, stock the fridge and agree on the transport plan over dinner together, before the festival takes over the conversation.
  • Friday: a proper breakfast and an unhurried afternoon getting ready. Leave for the first set you care about with time to spare for the shuttle and the gates.
  • Saturday: keep the morning free. A swim, coffee in the shade and a late breakfast are plenty before another long night.
  • Sunday: pack before you go out, so the last night is not followed by a scramble.
  • Monday: sleep in, then match your flight or drive to the checkout time and allow for festival traffic.

Our concierge team can have groceries waiting when you arrive, arrange a private chef for the Thursday dinner, or book in-home massages for the morning after. Tell us the dates and the house, and we will set it up.

What to pack for April in the desert

April averages about 87°F by day and 59°F at night, according to our Palm Springs weather guide. Indio can run a little warmer, and the evenings cool off fast once the sun drops behind the mountains.

Bring comfortable shoes for long walks on grass, sun protection, breathable clothes for the day, swimwear for the house and a layer for after dark. Check Coachella’s allowed-items and bag rules for 2027 before you pack the festival bag; they are published closer to the event.

When does the Coachella 2027 lineup come out?

Coachella has not given a date. Recent lineups have come out in January, November and, last year, mid-September, so the 2027 poster could land any week between now and January. Set times come out closer to the festival. We will update this page as soon as the lineup is official.

Is the lineup the same both weekends?

Coachella says both weekends feature the same lineup, art, food and activities. Surprise guests and one-off moments do not always repeat.

Is it better to stay in Palm Springs or closer to Coachella?
