The Coachella 2026 lineup has been unveiled, featuring some prominent artists, yet not everyone is pleased.
Coachella is one of the most renowned festivals annually, attracting celebrities worldwide to California, clad in fringe and cowboy boots, for a music-laden weekend.
The festival has a history of hosting music greats such as Oasis, Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Coldplay, and Drake.
This year’s headliners are significant as well, with Justin Bieber, Sabrina Carpenter, and Karol G topping the bill.
Other notable acts include The Strokes, Nine Inch Noize, David Byrne, Iggy Pop, Disclosure, Young Thug, Addison Rae, Labrinth, Teddy Swims, Moby, Wet Leg, Little Simz, Major Lazer, FKA Twigs, and PinkPantheress, among others.
Scheduled over two weekends in April 2026, Justin Bieber will perform on April 11 and April 18.
Despite the impressive lineup, many Coachella enthusiasts are not thrilled.
“This is the most boring line-up ever,” a user commented on Twitter.
Another concurred, saying, “This line up is a** [sic],” while a third added, “Thanks. I hate it.”
One more person criticized, “This line up is a** but congrats to who made it this year lol.”
“The lineups get worse and worse every year,” another person noted.
Yet another skeptic wrote, “These gotta be the worst headliners in a while.”
However, there are fans who are eagerly anticipating Coachella’s ‘stacked’ lineup.
“JUSTIN BIEBER HEADLINING COACHELLA OH MY F**KING GOD,” an excited fan exclaimed on Twitter.
“Damn, this Coachella Line up is actually impressive,” commented another on the festival’s recently revealed lineup.
“Sabrina and Bieber headlining together is wild,” another shared, also noting: “but lowkey excited to see what Anyma brings.”
“This lineup is electric with so many incredible artists, each performance promises unforgettable moments and pure musical energy,” said another positive music enthusiast.
Meanwhile, some have highlighted that Sabrina Carpenter ‘manifested’ her headlining at the major festival.
Carpenter introduced her hit ‘Espresso’ at Coachella in 2024, expressing at the time: “Coachella, see you back here when I headline.”
Following the lineup announcement, one fan remarked, “Miss Sabrina Carpenter returning to Coachella as a headliner like she said she would.”
Another supporter expressed: “Sabrina said a year ago that she’d headline Coachella when she would next be there and now look at where she’s at. I’m so proud of her.”
