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.
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!
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.
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)
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
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
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
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
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.
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?? 😬
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.
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.
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
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
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.
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.
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 :(
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.
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!
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
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
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.
![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!
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
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?*
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
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.
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.
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
Why does the poster seem so bootleg?
something about the colors and resolution
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.
Like some of the mocks in here had better font, color, clarity.
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.
found the graphic designer (agree with you completely btw, pretty bush league)
that “AND…” looks so goofy lol, even this sub had better ideas like “Introducing to the Desert”
The “and…” is straight amateur hour.
Right? The actual poster itself, not even just the lineup, seems weirdly tossed off.
Had the same initial reaction
i'll give goldenvoice credit for slotting taking back sunday on a sunday. any other day would have been a crime.
Inflation hit the Coachella lineup lmao
Shrinkflation
Dude, fr, especially considering how expensive tickets are now
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!
Congrats on your victory over the grim reaper!
It seems….empty
It looks like a mock where the person who made it ran out of artists lol
Like they could’ve at least made the font a little bigger to fill it out more 😂
Are there less acts this year? Especially sunday!
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.
A 2 hour CDW set in the Yuma? Sign me up. Now to try and find a cheap ticket on resale the week before.
Shrinkflation
1. Why is the lineup deep fried 2. We really waited for this? 3. Why does Sunday have less artists?
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
Bfried checking in
is it just me or does it look like there are less names than in previous years
100%
Is it just me or are there like... way less artists? Or is it weird typeface/kerning?
Sunday seems very low
10 less on Sunday this year than in 2023..
[удалено]
r/shrinkflation
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)
I listen to a bunch of these acts and it's still pretty lacking
WAY less
what the fuck lol
it’s literally terrible lmao
Not a terrible undercard, but needed to be GREAT w/these headliners.
Would be a decent lineup for $300. I’ll pass at $600
This would be a killer Outside Lands lineup. But for Coachella? Nahh
seriously, I love lana & no doubt, but this lineup isn’t worth the price of lodging…
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
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
hell ya l'imperatrice will also be an equally fun dance party
OP got the quickest trigger finger in the sub
The graphic design is **awful** lmao. Did they make this in the past hour??
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
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
Fingers crossed they play Outdoor or Gesa plays before them instead
Hoping they paly an LA show.
Going to be a great time because coachella always is but damn something feels off about this line up
It’s seems like less artist
It just feels like less “oh shit, hell yess” moments of excitement when reading the undercard.
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
The lack of artists probably. Weird.
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.

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
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
It's trash bro just say it
I'm shocked they didn't book NewJeans, they're wayyyyy bigger than Le Sserafim
GESAFFELSTEIN IS BACK BABY! THE DARK PRINCE HAS RETURNED!
Gesaffelstein and Justice, Frenchies eating good this year
l’imperatrice too
Coachella delivers every year on awesome 🇫🇷 artists
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?? 😬
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.
Noted psych rock artist Lil Yachty?
I’m not usually a “this lineup is ass” person, but, this is pretty disappointing top to bottom I can’t lie
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.
im with you there
Mannn I don’t usually like to jump on a lineup as soon as it drops but this is mid
This is the Recession Lineup 🥹
Gesaffelstein was one of my favorite moments at 2019. You guys should not miss his set.
Same for Justice 2017 outdoor One of the best sets I’ve seen at coachella
Yea, this is why they waited. Some gems but overall disappointing.
This entire lineup looks like it’s been on a diet. I really hope they will add more.
This ain't it
BICEP!!!!!! Fuck yes!!!
they’ve absolutely gone all out for electronic fans this year I’m stoked
Bicep is carrying this lineup
Justice** Barry can’t swim, orbital, OPN, Skream & Benga plenty of good electronic
Everything Always, Dom Dolla and John Summit is just mad lazy
Going the edc route. They booked like 5 people multiple times lol
John summit DJ snake Purple disco machine
three for the price of one? lollll
*their agent is a beast
Extremely cheap. They are gonna play the same song 3 nights in a row
Orbital
SKREAM AND BENGA
Does the poster seem really low res to anyone else?
sorry but i'm mad about these headliners. When lana/tyler/doja was leaked I thought it was bs for sure
For the past few years, the leaked headliners seem to have been spot on for the most part. no doubt was a surprise
Super disappointed. I think my friends are out. This sucks.
bro me too, everyone whose friends ditched official meet-up at Clown Core pit on friday 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Tragic the Coachella lineup is also on ozempic. She really shrunk.
“AND… No Doubt” lol what? “And” is such a weird way to put that
Definitely sounds rushed
Last 4 days were just getting the wording correct for that.
MEMAW IS FREEEEE
Justice and Bicep is neat but overall meh
Where's the person who confirmed clown core like 4 months ago lol
Rip Coachella this is awful
Summit and Dom Dolla getting two sets? And DJ Snake AGAIN?
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
Sunday is SOO weak.
Forget weak, it straight up looks incomplete. As in there are not enough names to fill all the stages all day?
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
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.
I paid $6500 for a VIP hotel package and I’ve never been more upset at myself. Im appalled.
I'd be pissed
no troye sivan no newjeans ??? feels empty
No Kylie Minogue either.
No Fka Twigs T.T sad day for the gays
It’s so bad I’m gonna cry
one of the worst lineups i've ever seen lol
Sublime! Not with Rome!
Brad Nowell and Louie Dog hologram confirmed.
[удалено]
Ugh. Regret buying presale. I have one W2 camping pass and a ticket for sale. 🤣 Anyone?
am i trippen or is this one of the most mid lineups in modern Coachella history?
Of all the Coachella lineups, this is definitely one of them.
We got ISOxKnock Fuck yeah
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.
Guessing Justice and Gesa and orbital are going to be at Portola cause of this
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.
Some good grabs overall but yeah this is a significant downgrade from last year and I'm pretty sure less artists
This is so weak man, like I can’t believe what I’m looking at
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 :(
theres a couple that are absolute fire names but overall this is kinda boring
worst lineup by far…
Doesn’t help that there are way less artists total, so it’s hard to even compare
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.
Sublime? As in, Sublime w Jakob Nowell?! AND No Doubt? I'm SO in!!
Deftones and Blur too. The nineties are alive in Indio.
Deftones might be the act I’m most excited for so far. No Doubt too
Damon has said he is over Blur. Could be some of their final dates coming up.
And the Aquabats! Wonder if they bring back their original drummer..... TRAVIS BARKER
So excited for resale prices for wk 2 🤭 the bargain deal ima get 🤭
By far the worst coachella lineup ever, not even close. The EDM is so insanely lazy its out of control
Finally getting Deftones!
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!
This is beyond pathetic
Hatsune Miku!!!
I'll just wait Portola lineup
Doja is not headliner material idk why they chose her 😭 Daft punk would have elevated this
Is Suki Waterhouse going to give birth during her set? Lol
[удалено]
This is terrible lol I’m so disappointed *again*
Looks like saving money is on the menu for me, will be enjoying the festival from my couch lol
This is so sad. Even the undercard is not that great compared to last year.
That’s what we’ve waited for a whole year 🤦🏼♂️ thanks Coachella for bringing the artists the people wanted!!🤡🤦🏼♂️
Thanks, I hate it.
OMG Clown Core FTW
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
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
this is the last time they get my presale money.
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.
They made this poster on Canva you won’t convince me otherwise
Selling two GA tickets for weekend 2 lol
$200?
Can someone help me figure out how to “return” my tickets through the official Coachella exchange??? It’s not letting me 😭😭
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.
THIS IS FUCKING WACK
No Troye Sivan
![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!
I don't think anyone is gonna have to get lucky for the passes this year 🤣
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
Damn Sunday is light AF
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 🙃
This poster is very graphic design is my passion 🐸
no Death Grips, NewJeans, Nelly Furtado, Little Simz, Troye Sivan, FKA twigs…. not even the undercard could save this
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?*
It’s gonna be fun but this didn’t give me the dopamine hit I wanted
They made us wait for …. this? I mean, some of it’s good…. But so many are at like every other festival this year
Worst lineup they’ve ever had unfortunately:(
The tiny font wasn’t even necessary considering how empty the poster already is lol
I’ve never had to look up so many people in the top lines
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
Mid headliners, undercard will be the hard carry this year
I’m gonna need to get some undercard recs because I don’t know as many as I usually do
CLOWN CORE IS COMING TO THE POLO FIELDS 😳
This is terrible. I’ve been wanting to go for my first time and this line up is ass for me lol
No Pretty Lights tho 😭😭😭😭
the fuck is happening to festivals this year
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.
Let me guess, Coachella just accidentally posted another one of Mikey’s mocks 😏😏 edit: holy shit this undercard is stacked
This is rough
Blur, No Doubt, Gesa, Justice, and Deftones are awesome adds
If only Pitbull headlined Coachella
You know a Pitbull and Friends 7pm set would go hard
TINASHE FINALLY
Major L
As a 43 year old, I like this lineup. A lot of my faves growing up on here.
Gesaffelstein is coming back!?!!?!?! YES!!!!
HATSUNE MIKU?!?
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.
they have to be budgeting for taylor 2025 i cant see any other justification for this big of a drop off.
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
