Coachella announces dates for April 2022 return

The Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival will return next year for the first time since 2019. Organizers announced the festival will be held the weekends of April 15-17 and 22-24, 2022.

Earlier this year, Coachella 2021 was canceled by the public health officer in Riverside County, California, having been rescheduled to April 9-11 and 16-18, 2021. The cancelation was due to the resurgence of COVID-19 worldwide, and within Riverside County.  Last March 2020, Coachella was postponed from its original dates in April to October due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and by June 2020 it was cancelled for the first time in 20 years.

Coachella 2020 was slated to feature Frank Ocean, Rage Against the Machine, and Travis Scott as headliners, with a full lineup including Lana Del Rey, Lil Uzi Vert, Thom Yorke, Run the Jewels, Danny Elfman, FKA twigs, DaBaby, 21 Savage, Caribou, Lil Nas X, and more.
