Coachella is predominantly an Indie, Rock, EDM and Hip Hop based festival, this is reflected in the headlining acts; with Guns N’ Roses of course being the biggest deal; however LCD Soundsystem are also making a comeback at Coachella this year.
Further details on the festival and ticket availability can be found here.
Coachella was first formed in 1999, however the inspiration for the festival came six years before in ’93 wherein Pearl Jam performed in Coachella Valley due to a major dispute with Ticketmaster and so refused to play in Los Angeles. Coachella has since grown exponentially in size and structure with thousands of people flocking to the Colorado Desert every year to see their favourite artists perform. Coachella has also had some pretty huge names performing as well, with the likes of AC/DC, The Black Keys, Wu-Tang Clan, Jay-Z, White Stripes, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Foo Fighters, Rage Against the Machine, Kanye West and many more.
This year promises to be a huge festival, the significance of Guns N’ Roses reuniting cannot be overstated! Tickets go on sale January 6th at 11am Pacific Time.
