Sabrina Carpenter, Justin Bieber, and Karol G will all debut as headliners at the music festival, and Karol will even make history as the first Latina to take top billing at the event.
There’s lots in store beyond headliners, too. Young Thug, Katseye, and Geese will each deliver highly anticipated, memorable sets. The lineup also offers iconic comeback stories: The xx will return to the festival and so will The Strokes. It’s going to be a festival to remember. Check out the 20 artists we’re most excited for below.

Dijon

The musician will hit the stage on Friday, and the performance comes just a few months after he released his second studio album, Baby. Last year, the LP took Dijon out on the road for an intimate tour that lends itself to the shared experience of watching an artist truly in their element, making Coachella a perfect place to watch it come to life. —Larisha Paul
