How Do I Get Tickets to Coachella 2026?

Coachella 2026 tickets officially went on sale September 19th. As of 7:00 p.m. local time, weekend One Coachella tickets are sold out. Some Weekend Two tickets — specifically GA w/ shuttle and VIP passes — are still available via the festival’s official website

Fans can also look for Coachella passes via StubHub, where orders are 110% guaranteed through StubHub’s FanProtect program. As a secondary market ticketing platform, StubHub prices may be higher or lower than face value, depending on demand.

What Types of Passes Are Available and How Much Do They Cost?

Coachella 2026 continues the tradition of offering 3-Day passes only — single-day passes are not available. The festival offers both GA (General Admission) and VIP tiers.

VIP Benefits: While VIP access has expanded in recent years (especially in 2025), it doesn’t guarantee pit access to Coachella’s various stages. However, VIP does include:

• Dedicated entry and exit lanes
• Access to preferred parking
• Special food and drink options
• Private entry lane for the Yuma tent
• Enclosed VIP areas by the Coachella Stage, Outdoor Stage, Sahara Tent, and Mojave Tent
• Air-conditioned restrooms and shaded seating areas
• Full no-host bars in VIP areas

What’s the Difference Between Weekend 1 and Weekend 2?

For the first time since the festival extended to two weekends in 2012, Weekend 1 is more expensive than Weekend 2. This price difference reflects several factors:

• The grass is literally greener during Weekend 1 (groundskeepers rehabilitate the fields between weekends, but fresh grass inevitably suffers during the first weekend)
• Higher percentage of livestream coverage and special guests typically appear during Weekend 1
• Different acts on rotating stages: The Quasar and DoLab stages feature different performers each weekend
• Surprise Guests: Recent years have featured surprise set additions split between weekends

Despite these differences, both weekends feature essentially the same lineup and headliners.

Can I Use a Payment Plan?

Yes! Coachella offers a payment plan option, and more than half of Coachella 2025 attendees financed their passes this way.

Payment Plan Details:

• $49 down at checkout
• Split remaining balance into equal monthly payments through February 2026
• No added interest
• $50 flat fee for the payment plan

So Who Is Actually Playing This Thing?

Coachella’s 2026 lineup is a bit divisive, and a lot of it hinges on how you feel about Justin Bieber. The pop star takes Saturday’s headlining slot for his first-ever solo Coachella performance, joining Sabrina Carpenter (Friday) and Karol G (Sunday) in what might be Coachella’s most pop-centric headlining trio to date. Rounding out the top line is Anyma, the Italian DJ/producer fresh off his Sphere residency, debuting his new show Æden.

The real story is in the undercard, where Coachella has packed an impressively eclectic mix. Punk is having a major moment with Iggy Pop, DEVO, and Turnstile, while indie rock makes a triumphant return via The xx, The Strokes, Interpol, and Wet Leg. Electronic music remains the festival’s backbone with Disclosure, Nine Inch Noize (Nine Inch Nails + Boys Noize), and Kaskade, plus international flavors from BIGBANG, Central Cee, and rising stars like Addison Rae and Sombr.
