Coachella 2023: A Guide to the Desert’s Trendiest Events

Palm Springs will be the it-destination for thousands of music lovers across the next two weekends where the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival is taking place on April 14–16 and April 21–23.

As one of the world’s most in-demand music festivals, the fun extends far beyond Coachella grounds with a lineup of events — including one taking place in Leonardo DiCaprio’s former desert digs — that will serve as an oasis for artists and attendees.

Coachella 2023 will see a historically international lineup that includes Bad Bunny (first Latin headliner) and Blackpink (first K-pop act to headline); other top-billed artists include Icelandic icon Bjork, Spain’s Rosalía, Nigeria’s Burna Boy and British-Indian singer Jai Paul. For those looking to catch the action at home, both weekends will be fully live-streamed on YouTube.

To help navigate the numerous parties happening over the weekend (be warned, most are invitation-only), we’ve put together a comprehensive guide to the festivities below.
