About
The Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival is one of the most iconic and influential music festivals in the world. Held annually at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, California, it spans two consecutive three-day weekends in April. Known for its eclectic lineup that crosses genres from indie rock to hip-hop to electronic dance music, Coachella has become as much a cultural event as a musical one, attracting celebrities, fashion influencers, and art enthusiasts alongside music fans.
