Couldn’t get tickets to Coachella 2026? Not an issue. For the non-influencers and the otherwise hard up, there will always be YouTube.
This year’s edition of the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival runs across two weekends: April 10–12 and April 17–19, at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, California. Headliners include Sabrina Carpenter (Friday), Justin Bieber (Saturday), and KAROL G (Sunday), with a lineup that also spans BIGBANG, KATSEYE, FKA twigs, The xx, The Strokes, Clipse, Turnstile, Disclosure, and more.
Here's everything you need to know about watching from home.
The entire festival is streaming live and free on Coachella’s official YouTube channel, across all seven stages, every day of the festival — April 10–12 and 17–19. No subscription, no paywall.
You can tune in via YouTube on your browser, the YouTube app on mobile or smart TV, or through the official Coachella app (available on iOS and Android), which lets you sync the schedule to your time zone and build a personalized viewing lineup.
This year marks the first time the Coachella livestream is available in 4K. Three stages — the Coachella main stage, the Outdoor Theatre, and the Sahara — will be viewable in 4K, while the Quasar stage can be watched in both horizontal and vertical formats.
The multiview feature lets you watch up to four live stages simultaneously on your TV through the YouTube app, with audio toggle between feeds. The Watch With feature, returning from 2025, allows creators to stream live commentary and reactions alongside performances.
YouTube Shopping is also integrated into the livestream this year, letting viewers purchase official Coachella and artist merchandise directly without leaving the stream — with an accelerated mobile checkout for faster purchases.
Streams begin at 4 p.m. PT / 7 p.m. ET daily. For international viewers, that’s midnight BST, 4:30 a.m. IST, and 8 a.m. SGT/KST.
If start times aren’t ideal for your time zone, the livestream replays on a loop after the final set of each night, so there's plenty of opportunity to catch up.
Friday, April 10: Sabrina Carpenter headlines the main stage at 9:05 p.m. PT, following The xx at 7 p.m. and Teddy Swims at 5:30 p.m. KATSEYE takes the Sahara stage at 8 p.m. PT in what marks the group's Coachella debut — performing as five, with member Manon confirmed to remain on hiatus. Disclosure closes the Mojave at 10:35 p.m.
Saturday, April 11: Justin Bieber headlines at 11:25 p.m. PT in one of his most significant live returns in years. The Strokes open the main stage night at 9 p.m., with Giveon at 7 p.m. and Addison Rae at 5:30 p.m. David Byrne plays the Outdoor Theatre at 10:20 p.m., and Labrinth follows at 8:30 p.m.
Sunday, April 12: KAROL G headlines at 9:55 p.m. PT. BIGBANG, making a rare group performance as a trio (G-Dragon, Taeyang, and Daesung), takes the Outdoor Theatre at 10:30 p.m. — their last full group performance was at the 2024 MAMA Awards. Young Thug performs at 7:50 p.m., and FKA twigs hits the Outdoor Theatre at 8:45 p.m. CLIPSE opens the afternoon at 5:15 p.m.
Not every artist at the festival is guaranteed to be broadcast. A separate YouTube livestream schedule is made available on Coachella’s official website and app ahead of each weekend — check there before building your viewing schedule.
The same headliners and lineup repeat across weekend two, with set times expected to mirror weekend one. The official schedule for April 17–19 will be released closer to the date via the Coachella app and website.
Tickets for both weekends are sold out, though resale options remain available. AXS Official Resale is Coachella’s preferred vendor; single-day passes start around $820, with three-day passes from approximately $2,700.
For most fans, the free YouTube stream remains the most accessible — and increasingly competitive — way to experience the festival.
