Keeping watch for the Coachella lineup to drop is normally a post-New Year’s sport, but—surprise!—word of next year’s performers has arrived nearly two months earlier than usual.
Lady Gaga, Green Day, Post Malone and Travis Scott will headline the 2025 edition of the festival. Coachella will once again stage two weekends of nearly identical lineups in Indio from April 11 to 13 and April 18 to 20, 2025. (Post Malone’s involvement was teased just yesterday when he included two shows in Indio in his list of tour dates.)
Presale technically already came and went over the summer. But additional passes—also being dubbed presale—will go on sale Friday, November 22 at 11am. Including fees, general admission starts at $599 for weekend one—and weekend two actually costs less at $549. With a shuttle pass included, it’s $729 for the first weekend and $679 for the second. VIP costs $1,399 for weekend one and $1,199 for weekend two. It’s worth noting that all of these prices are listed as “starting at”; in the past, this has meant that prices increased slightly after the initial batches of tickets were snatched up.
Back to the lineup, the smaller-sized names at Coachella are always just as interesting as—if not more so than—the headliners. This year’s edition includes the likes of Missy Elliott, Charli XCX, the Original Misfits, Megan Thee Stallion, Zedd, Benson Boone, the Go-Go’s, Three 6 Mafia, Japanese Breakfast, Jimmy Eat World and LISA and JENNIE—both listed solo as opposed to part of BLACKPINK. We’re always curious to see what sorts of nostalgic trends make their way onto the lineup, and there’s a clear dose of kind-of-clubby ’90s English music on the bill, including the Prodigy and Basement Jaxx, plus Portishead singer Beth Gibbons (who leans much more singer-songwriter as a solo act). And as for the out-of-left-field surprises, you’ll find Yo Gabba Gabba! and the LA Philharmonic conducted by Gustavo Dudamel—who’s in the homestretch of his tenure in L.A. before heading to the New York Philharmonic in 2026.
If you’re trying your hand at tickets, it’s worth pointing out that passes for the second weekend didn’t sell out last year—in fact, it was the slowest year of Coachella ticket sales in a decade. (Of course there’s no guarantee that’ll be the case again this year.) Also of note: Headliner Travis Scott (who’s given a “designs the desert” credit for 2025) was supposed to top 2020’s canceled edition, and though he was tipped for the 2022 return, Scott didn’t end up making it onto that lineup, which was announced only a couple of months after the fatal crowd crush at the rapper’s Astroworld Festival in Houston.
So who’s headlining Coachella 2025?
Lady Gaga, Green Day, Post Malone and Travis Scott will headline 2025’s festival, with additional sets from Missy Elliott, Charli XCX, the Original Misfits, Megan Thee Stallion, Zedd and more.
And as a reminder, who headlined last year’s festival?
No Doubt, Lana Del Rey, Tyler the Creator, Doja Cat topped the 2024 lineup.
