Coachella has announced its 2023 artist lineup, with Urbano music superstar Bad Bunny, K-pop girl group Blackpink, and R&B icon Frank Ocean set to headline the 22nd edition of the festival.
The festival is scheduled to take place over two weekends, April 14th–16th and April 21st–23rd, at Empire Polo Club in Indio, CA. This is the first year the festival will be headlined entirely by non-white artists.
Frank Ocean was originally scheduled to headline Coachella in 2020, but the festival was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Bad Bunny, Spotify’s most-streamed artist for the third year in a row, will be making his second Coachella appearance following a main stage set in 2019. He will be the first artist from Latin America and the first Spanish-language artist to headline the festival. Blackpink, who made a raucous debut at the fest in 2019, will return as a top-billed act on the back of its second album, Born Pink. The group sold out two nights at the Banc of California Stadium in L.A. in November and will be the first Asian act to headline Coachella.
The festival will also feature performances by Gorillaz, Burna Boy, Chemical Brothers, YUNGBLUD, Rosalía, boygenius, $uicideboy$, The Kid LAROI, Charli XCX, Marc Rebillet, Hiatus Kaiyote, Björk, Willow, and many more, plus large-scale art installations. View the full lineup below, and visit the festival website for additional information.
