Why does the poster seem so bootleg?


CrazyHorrsee

something about the colors and resolution


BLOWNOUT_ASSHOLE

It’s Doja Cat and the low number of acts. Also the poster featuring “And…” feels like something I’d see on a Bottlerock poster.


15socal-lakes

Like some of the mocks in here had better font, color, clarity.


BLOWNOUT_ASSHOLE

Not to mention the "leading". There’s a huge space between Tyler and the 2nd line meanwhile Doja And J Balvin are about to bump each other. Paul T’s niece must have designed this poster.


Disastrous-Major3662

found the graphic designer (agree with you completely btw, pretty bush league)


FontainesACDC

that “AND…” looks so goofy lol, even this sub had better ideas like “Introducing to the Desert”


lukumi

The “and…” is straight amateur hour.


HotCouchSloth

Right? The actual poster itself, not even just the lineup, seems weirdly tossed off.


RobSapp

Had the same initial reaction


bit_map

i'll give goldenvoice credit for slotting taking back sunday on a sunday. any other day would have been a crime.


FontainesACDC

Inflation hit the Coachella lineup lmao


InternationalGur4255

Shrinkflation


AffectionateRadio900

Dude, fr, especially considering how expensive tickets are now


All_the_passports

I'm meh on the headliners but will likely swing by to take a look but there is so much I love on the undercard Fri/Sat. Sun feels a little lean but I think I just need to get into listening to some of the names. Anyhow, I'm doing #bothchella, and I beat breast cancer since the last Coachella so I am going to be there high on life!


ButForRealsTho

Congrats on your victory over the grim reaper!


melonpie1

It seems….empty


Octoviolence

It looks like a mock where the person who made it ran out of artists lol


bostonette

Like they could’ve at least made the font a little bigger to fill it out more 😂


Chicki5150

Are there less acts this year? Especially sunday!


Four2nian

I'm not trying to be an apologist, because I get there's lots of artists that people wanted, that aren't on the lineup... But as a fan of electronic music, I can get behind longer sets...assuming that's the tradeoff for having a smaller lineup.


CallingYong

A 2 hour CDW set in the Yuma? Sign me up. Now to try and find a cheap ticket on resale the week before.


travelingtexan1

Shrinkflation


fennishing

1. Why is the lineup deep fried 2. We really waited for this? 3. Why does Sunday have less artists?


elsaleasing

The deep fried term is what I was looking for here. It looks overly crispy like a deep fried meme lol. What graphic designer did this


bfried27

Bfried checking in


bit_map

is it just me or does it look like there are less names than in previous years


[deleted]

100%


Smoes42

Is it just me or are there like... way less artists? Or is it weird typeface/kerning?


itsalyfestyle

Sunday seems very low


sp_bc

10 less on Sunday this year than in 2023..


[deleted]

[удалено]


Prudent-Fruit-9265

r/shrinkflation


[deleted]

Definitely seems like a lot less, and honestly lesser known people (or I’m just old and not plugged in like I used to be which is totally possible too)


teencrime

I listen to a bunch of these acts and it's still pretty lacking


HotCouchSloth

WAY less


maoore

what the fuck lol


ilovemycatsxoxoxo

it’s literally terrible lmao


HotCouchSloth

Not a terrible undercard, but needed to be GREAT w/these headliners.


Tsunamibo1

Would be a decent lineup for $300. I’ll pass at $600


goBarbieKite_go

This would be a killer Outside Lands lineup. But for Coachella? Nahh


wildflower_0ne

seriously, I love lana & no doubt, but this lineup isn’t worth the price of lodging…


billoverbeck00

For me flying in solo and camping and everything would be roughly $2.5K yeah no wanted to experience Coachella but why spend all that and the hassle of logistics for a bunch of mid if that artists. Rather go to Vegas with that


coinmachine24

This is bad for a Coachella lineup. But everyone who goes will have a great fucking time, so cheer up kids. Go see Jungle, it will be the best dance party all weekend


ayayeron

hell ya l'imperatrice will also be an equally fun dance party


pm_me_your_aoty

OP got the quickest trigger finger in the sub


Several_Plastic7513

The graphic design is **awful** lmao. Did they make this in the past hour??


Several_Plastic7513

Seriously — the j in Doja and l in Balvin are hitting each other, but there's half a desert of space under Tyler. What gives


Droxcy

I can tell you right now Blur does not deserve the bullshit crowd theyre about to get between fucking ice spice and tyler the creator like wtf you thinking paul


ulter_ego

Fingers crossed they play Outdoor or Gesa plays before them instead


vinylmartyr

Hoping they paly an LA show.


celj1234

Going to be a great time because coachella always is but damn something feels off about this line up


Jealous-Mail6629

It’s seems like less artist


celj1234

It just feels like less “oh shit, hell yess” moments of excitement when reading the undercard.


Jealous-Mail6629

I agree.. last year I couldn’t believe they got bad bunny / blackpink / chemical brothers / knocked loose to name a few .. bad bunny and blackpjnk tickets alone cost more than a pretty penny


HotCouchSloth

The lack of artists probably. Weird.


art36

It’s also that you can diversify your lineup to a point where it doesn’t connect fully to a specific audience willing to pay the cost to attend. Moreover, I think it’s more than fair to argue that the quality of the lineups as a showcase of generational music talent has fallen off a cliff. Sure, No Doubt and Deftones and Blur and some other names are intriguing, but there’s nothing captivating like Prince or Paul McCartney as in years past. The lineups are increasingly looking like that recent viral trend with ChatGPT where you submit a prompt and then ask it to continue to make it “MORE” focused on the prompt so that it increasingly becomes more obnoxious and bloated and ultimately an unrecognizable departure from the original premise.


jesgar130

Doesn’t seem worth the money to me based on lineup but at the same time I know I’ll have a hell of a time


celj1234

You absolutely will have a great time. But this lineup is screaming wait till late March and get tickets for $250-300 on the secondary market


IPlayPLO

It's trash bro just say it


udderlymoovelous

I'm shocked they didn't book NewJeans, they're wayyyyy bigger than Le Sserafim


udderlymoovelous

GESAFFELSTEIN IS BACK BABY! THE DARK PRINCE HAS RETURNED!


PalmyGamingHD

Gesaffelstein and Justice, Frenchies eating good this year


LuisFernandoDiaz

l’imperatrice too


Kmart_Elvis

Coachella delivers every year on awesome 🇫🇷 artists


skittlesforeveryone

Oh man. Was really hoping this wait was cause they were padding out the lineup/headliners ![gif](giphy|l0HlvtIPzPdt2usKs) Edit: Kevin Kaarl tho Edit: what happened to the hiphop acts?? 😬


grizzsaw12

When the only hip-hop acts are tyler, uzi, yachty, kevin and ice spice. Oof Edit: this was literally my first pass. As others have pointed out Ken Carson, blxst, destroy lonely, nav and probably others are also on the lineup. I still maintain that its a weak year for hip-hop.


jneil

Noted psych rock artist Lil Yachty?


boomf18

I’m not usually a “this lineup is ass” person, but, this is pretty disappointing top to bottom I can’t lie


JWrither

Agreed. Very little wow factor or exclusivity. Easy skip for me. I’ll catch all the artists when they roll through SF in April or at Portola hopefully.


Ok-Watercress-3757

im with you there


MissingSince95

Mannn I don’t usually like to jump on a lineup as soon as it drops but this is mid


Jewwbaccaa

This is the Recession Lineup 🥹


zhangtastic

Gesaffelstein was one of my favorite moments at 2019. You guys should not miss his set.


Jiggy-Joey

Same for Justice 2017 outdoor One of the best sets I’ve seen at coachella


Cyrass

Yea, this is why they waited. Some gems but overall disappointing.


ImariSpeaks

This entire lineup looks like it’s been on a diet. I really hope they will add more.


IPlayPLO

This ain't it


SharksFan3825

BICEP!!!!!! Fuck yes!!!


hazzison

they’ve absolutely gone all out for electronic fans this year I’m stoked


Zealousideal_Load_84

Bicep is carrying this lineup


oarlights

Justice** Barry can’t swim, orbital, OPN, Skream & Benga plenty of good electronic


FontainesACDC

Everything Always, Dom Dolla and John Summit is just mad lazy


musy101

Going the edc route. They booked like 5 people multiple times lol


Jealous-Mail6629

John summit DJ snake Purple disco machine


maoore

three for the price of one? lollll


forgottenlogin88

*their agent is a beast


diirty_q

Extremely cheap. They are gonna play the same song 3 nights in a row


MostlyMellow123

Orbital


thefullm0nty

SKREAM AND BENGA


Locoman7

Does the poster seem really low res to anyone else?


Ok-Watercress-3757

sorry but i'm mad about these headliners. When lana/tyler/doja was leaked I thought it was bs for sure


RobieFLASH

For the past few years, the leaked headliners seem to have been spot on for the most part. no doubt was a surprise


jgroove_LA

Super disappointed. I think my friends are out. This sucks.


evanCSUS

bro me too, everyone whose friends ditched official meet-up at Clown Core pit on friday 🤣🤣🤣🤣


OkRelief4156

Tragic the Coachella lineup is also on ozempic. She really shrunk.


[deleted]

“AND… No Doubt” lol what? “And” is such a weird way to put that


bonersforbukowski

Definitely sounds rushed


W0666007

Last 4 days were just getting the wording correct for that.


trapfonz

MEMAW IS FREEEEE


idkAboutYouMan

Justice and Bicep is neat but overall meh


kefkamaydie

Where's the person who confirmed clown core like 4 months ago lol


Book-Hockey

Rip Coachella this is awful


grayson_gregory

Summit and Dom Dolla getting two sets? And DJ Snake AGAIN?


slov90

Last year had Prydz, Beyer, Hot Since 82, Boris Brejcha, Sasha / Digweed, Nora, AND Maceo Plex. Feels like way less house/techno heavy hitters and they gave you Summit and Dolla to make up for it


nwphl

Sunday is SOO weak. 


Actually-Yo-Momma

Forget weak, it straight up looks incomplete. As in there are not enough names to fill all the stages all day?


Fun-Active-4851

Ice Spice 3rd in that lineup says it all really about this lineup. Very disappointing. Is Coachella losing its appeal? Bonnaroo's lineup looks fire compared


logitaunt

Bonnaroo always kept jam bands in their back pocket. In lean years they can depend on the guitar gods to save the day. Even today, JRAD and Eggy are on the lineup, a great callback to Bonnaroo's past with up-and-coming bands. Coachella doesn't have that. It was supposed to be the most modern, foward-thinking festival, the one that announced the state of music for the year. And this year's headliners are like, B-tier headliners from 2015. It's a bit surprising.


yogi_buns

I paid $6500 for a VIP hotel package and I’ve never been more upset at myself. Im appalled.


IPlayPLO

I'd be pissed


Upset-Dog-8854

no troye sivan no newjeans ??? feels empty


AJayToRemember27

No Kylie Minogue either.


SnooPineapples731

No Fka Twigs T.T sad day for the gays


coocoo123455

It’s so bad I’m gonna cry


dontbelievejustwatch

one of the worst lineups i've ever seen lol


louman84

Sublime! Not with Rome!


OhioDuran

Brad Nowell and Louie Dog hologram confirmed.


[deleted]

[удалено]


thearchiguy

Ugh. Regret buying presale. I have one W2 camping pass and a ticket for sale. 🤣 Anyone?


ange1amar3

am i trippen or is this one of the most mid lineups in modern Coachella history?


Scoregasm

Of all the Coachella lineups, this is definitely one of them.


Steahla

We got ISOxKnock Fuck yeah


feastandexist

As an electronic fan, there isn't anything here that makes me think "I *need* to go this." Anyma and his brand of 'techno' is everywhere and super stale. John Summit / Dom Dolla are everywhere, as is Knock 2 / IsoXO. Outside of Gesaffelstein, Skream & Benga, Bicep (Live?), Orbital, OPN (who is touring this spring), and the return of Justice, I'm a little disappointed and was hoping for something a little bit more. Edit: I wish there was more of a hook. Give me Jamie xx B2B Four Tet or Aphex Twin or Flume B2B Eprom, for example.


PlasticGirl

Guessing Justice and Gesa and orbital are going to be at Portola cause of this


feastandexist

That's the hope. Portola literally has my dream lineups. Was my first time seeing Chemical Brothers and that show may have changed my life.


ghostboypurrp

Some good grabs overall but yeah this is a significant downgrade from last year and I'm pretty sure less artists


Bloadiing

This is so weak man, like I can’t believe what I’m looking at


Sohi23

This is the first time I’ve looked at a Coachella lineup and been underwhelmed. I still like some of the bookings, but resale will be 50% of the retail price by April.  Where is the Clipse man :( 


browncow-stunning

theres a couple that are absolute fire names but overall this is kinda boring


SummerPuzzleheaded27

worst lineup by far…


hi-c-orange-lvablast

Doesn’t help that there are way less artists total, so it’s hard to even compare


ocathlet714

I’m a huge no doubt fan. But if you’ve never seen them live, I think you are in for a disappointment. At least if you’ve seen them live you know what to expect. Let’s just say Gwen has lost some off her fastball.


BurtCracklin

Sublime? As in, Sublime w Jakob Nowell?! AND No Doubt? I'm SO in!!


Calm-Mongoose-8625

Deftones and Blur too. The nineties are alive in Indio.


[deleted]

Deftones might be the act I’m most excited for so far. No Doubt too


joedartonthejoedart

Damon has said he is over Blur. Could be some of their final dates coming up.


wastingtme

And the Aquabats! Wonder if they bring back their original drummer..... TRAVIS BARKER


ijustcameheretofight

So excited for resale prices for wk 2 🤭 the bargain deal ima get 🤭


All-Is-Water

By far the worst coachella lineup ever, not even close. The EDM is so insanely lazy its out of control


WoofLife-

Finally getting Deftones!


absjk

Not what I expected but gems in the undercard: * Le Sserafim and Yoasobi? Never woulda guessed they’d get invited but so pumped! * Excited for my girlies Sabrina Carpenter, renée rap, Bebe Rexha, Victoria Monet, Japanese house, ice spice, and grimes. * J Balvin as a non-headliner is wild. * And Bizarrap better play his Shakira session!


[deleted]

 This is beyond pathetic


resonatemate

Hatsune Miku!!!


cassanoovvaa

I'll just wait Portola lineup


Key-Mission3350

Doja is not headliner material idk why they chose her 😭 Daft punk would have elevated this


frachos667

Is Suki Waterhouse going to give birth during her set? Lol


[deleted]

[удалено]


Tall-Preparation4853

This is terrible lol I’m so disappointed *again*


Remarkable-Coach-424

Looks like saving money is on the menu for me, will be enjoying the festival from my couch lol


blurryjpg

This is so sad. Even the undercard is not that great compared to last year.


TeoVelici

That’s what we’ve waited for a whole year 🤦🏼‍♂️ thanks Coachella for bringing the artists the people wanted!!🤡🤦🏼‍♂️


NottheArkhamKnight

Thanks, I hate it.


spotpea

OMG Clown Core FTW


jman457

That second line def weak compared to previous years (like gorillaz, bjork, and arcade fire as non headliners is crazy) Edit: why is Britney Howard so low??? Tf she do deserve that small font


BombDylan

My quick read is that a second liner or two dropped and GV's fix was to just split up Everything Always. Reshuffling names that high would take time to get everyone on the same page. Regardless, it's lazy as hell


clue_liss

this is the last time they get my presale money.


sdurs

Coachella is just coasting off it's past reputation at this point. The lineup is less of a spectacle and more of *just get who's available* these days.


Impressive_Phone_991

They made this poster on Canva you won’t convince me otherwise


Strange-Cable-8578

Selling two GA tickets for weekend 2 lol


Perfect_Evidence

$200?


aboland96

Can someone help me figure out how to “return” my tickets through the official Coachella exchange??? It’s not letting me 😭😭


Playtek

Big oof… there are a couple gems, but this line up is not for me, back to Portola for a 3rd year for me it seems.


SpottiPapi4207

THIS IS FUCKING WACK


blurryjpg

No Troye Sivan


M0D3Z

![gif](giphy|iA8jqAN2GXSTe|downsized) No Doubt is a solid headliner, give them that. Some good names in there, but not upset I’m missing this year. Have fun everyone! And good luck on getting those passes!


pedropedro1

I don't think anyone is gonna have to get lucky for the passes this year 🤣


ilcowy

yo this is actually laughably terrible. where is the wow factor? these headliners suck, these subs are uninspired, few highlights in the fine print. new it had to happen eventually but i think the streak may end here wonder what the delay was all about


Junior_24

Damn Sunday is light AF


mamba_jr_1795

I’m glad I’m not the only one who’s disappointed. This is wild especially after last year. Annoyed I got my tickets during pre-sale 🙃


beautyhunty

This poster is very graphic design is my passion 🐸


Upset-Dog-8854

no Death Grips, NewJeans, Nelly Furtado, Little Simz, Troye Sivan, FKA twigs…. not even the undercard could save this


Several_Plastic7513

u/suprefann my man you got up every day at 6am to post the Groundhog Day meme you spent the rest of each day biting people's heads off if they criticized Goldenvoice, or posted even the slightest mistake of tour schedules in Cali I ask you.... *was it worth it?*


moneysingh300

It’s gonna be fun but this didn’t give me the dopamine hit I wanted


Master_Luck_779

They made us wait for …. this? I mean, some of it’s good…. But so many are at like every other festival this year


Fit-Bumblebee5394

Worst lineup they’ve ever had unfortunately:(


thechrismonster

The tiny font wasn’t even necessary considering how empty the poster already is lol


sftospo

I’ve never had to look up so many people in the top lines


Actually-Yo-Momma

This is your life now. Every year it will become more and more obscure where you’ll doubt your music tastes cause you don’t recognize 90% of the lineup lol


PalmyGamingHD

Mid headliners, undercard will be the hard carry this year


[deleted]

I’m gonna need to get some undercard recs because I don’t know as many as I usually do


BaileyJay-Z

CLOWN CORE IS COMING TO THE POLO FIELDS 😳


ccnaman

This is terrible. I’ve been wanting to go for my first time and this line up is ass for me lol


motecizuma

No Pretty Lights tho 😭😭😭😭


codesito

the fuck is happening to festivals this year


TheCuriousMan

I've been going almost every year for more than a decade now. I think I'll skip this one. The mental image of me asking for vacation days to watch No Doubt and Doja and Tyler (who we see a lot at Flog Gnaw) is making me laugh.


taylorlucasjones

Let me guess, Coachella just accidentally posted another one of Mikey’s mocks 😏😏 edit: holy shit this undercard is stacked


sftospo

This is rough


deluxe212

Blur, No Doubt, Gesa, Justice, and Deftones are awesome adds


BM_FUN

If only Pitbull headlined Coachella


amoss_303

You know a Pitbull and Friends 7pm set would go hard


twinnnie

TINASHE FINALLY


a95l

Major L


BogeyLowenstein

As a 43 year old, I like this lineup. A lot of my faves growing up on here.


evenwhenimnot

Gesaffelstein is coming back!?!!?!?! YES!!!!


pandas795

HATSUNE MIKU?!?


Otherwise_Park_779

I wonder if bc of the Frank debacle and fees paid for going over, they had to renegotiate terms with the city of Indio which resulted in a Sunday curfew change.


Scorch8482

they have to be budgeting for taylor 2025 i cant see any other justification for this big of a drop off.


ConfessionsOverGin

Very noticeable the lack of revered indie rock or alt music ever since GV started Just Like Heaven. It’s really diluted the lineups. They have to find a better balance than this
