How to get tickets to Coachella 2022: Harry Styles, Billie Eilish and More
After two years of pandemic-related cancellations, the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, more commonly known simply as Coachella, is kicking off the widespread return of music festivals this April. This year's festival takes place across two weekends: April 15 through 17 and April 22 through 24, and will be headlined by the performers Harry Styles, Billie Eilish and Swedish House Mafia with the Weeknd. Ye (aka Kanye West) was slated to headline, but dropped out the festival lineup last week.
Prior to the pandemic, Coachella was one of the biggest music festivals in the country, drawing nearly 100,000 festival attendees per day back in 2018, according to a report from organizer Goldenvoice. Following the release of this year's official Coachella lineup, the remaining tickets sold out in a little over an hour, setting the stage for what is likely to be an exciting return for the festival. But if you're looking to attend this year's Coachella, you're in luck, because some resell tickets are being sold for less than listing price, so you can snag yours right now at a major discount.
Who is playing Coachella this year?
The lineup for Coachella 2022 also includes Phoebe Bridgers, Megan Thee Stallion, Lil Baby, 21 Savage, Danny Elfman, Doja Cat, Run the Jewels, Carly Rae Jepsen, Vince Staples, Japanese Breakfast, Disclosure, Brockhampton, Girl in Red and more.
