Dua Lipa, Tame Impala and SZA will headline Coachella 2027, the festival said when it published its poster on November 10. Dua Lipa closes Friday, Tame Impala closes Saturday and SZA closes Sunday, on both weekends at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, California.
Weekend 1 runs April 9 to 11, 2027 and Weekend 2 April 16 to 18. Daddy Yankee is billed at the foot of the headline tier and will make his Coachella debut. Madonna is booked into the dance tent.
Who else is on the poster
Below the three headliners the bill is deliberately wide. Phoebe Bridgers, Weezer, Robyn, Zara Larsson, Pinegrove, Steve Lacy, Four Tet and Peggy Gou are all listed, along with JISOO and Kehlani. Day-by-day placement of the smaller acts differed between outlets on the day of the announcement, so check the festival's own schedule before planning a weekend around one name. We covered Bridgers' North American tour dates on November 12, and Daddy Yankee's Latin Grammy nominations on November 9.
Madonna's booking drew the most discussion. Rolling Stone's takeaways piece pointed to her dance-tent slot as the poster's special spot. Stereogum's reaction column, headed "19 thoughts", noted that Tame Impala and SZA have each played Coachella several times before.
The names that are missing
Drake is not on it. Consequence reported that he had been in talks for 2027 and that he answered the festival's Instagram announcement with a single crying emoji. Neither Coachella nor Drake's team has said publicly why the deal did not happen. Rolling Stone also remarked on how few veteran rock acts the poster contains; Weezer is the closest to one in the upper rows.
What a pass costs, and when you buy it
Passes for 2027 went on sale in May 2026, six months before anyone outside the festival's organisers knew who was playing. Reported advance-sale prices for general admission ran from $599 to $699 across three tiers for Weekend 1 and from $549 to $649 for Weekend 2, with VIP starting around $1,299 and $1,249. Those prices included fees but not $16 shipping per order. A payment plan took $49 down and equal instalments through January 2027, and it closed on May 31.
A further wave of passes was reported to go on sale on Friday, November 13, after the lineup reveal. Sources conflict on what is left: one listing treats standalone general admission as sold out for at least one weekend, while another says Coachella had not published prices or plan terms for this sale. Resale is not covered by a payment plan.
Last year's bill as a yardstick
The 2026 edition was led by Sabrina Carpenter, Justin Bieber and Karol G, one per day on each weekend. A Dutch outlet reported all 250,000 tickets gone within three days, and Latin Post cited estimates of $220 million to $240 million in total revenue, with resale prices for general admission often above $2,000. Both figures come from secondary reports, not from Coachella's promoter.
The 2027 bill keeps the formula: one pop headliner, one alternative act, one R&B star, and a Latin name placed where the audience will notice. Tame Impala, an Australian psychedelic project, is the only guitar-adjacent act at the top.
What to watch before April
The festival normally livestreams both weekends, but no 2027 broadcast arrangement has been announced. The undercard order and set times usually follow in the spring. Surprise guests are a Coachella tradition, so any Drake appearance would have to arrive unannounced.
