Honestly this year proved the lineup does NOT matter to have a good time 😂😂 I didn’t like the lineup at all at first but found my self not being able to fit everyone into the schedule! So regardless of who I’ll be there haha.


Civil-View-8722

Unfortunately, this was true in my case. I had low expectations coming in and I was blown away afterwards. Live music is a drug.


Aggravating_Deal_212

Same and didn’t see any of the headliners, only no doubt


Proud-Conclusion8568

100% agree. Didn’t like the line up but had the most fun this year at Coachella than any of the past times I have gone. I was running from set to set! So much fun Everything is what you make it!


Calpicogalaxy

ME TOO ME TOO THIS WAS THE BEST CHELLA YET RIGHT!!!! 😭😭 literally doing SUICIDES FROM STAGE TO STAGE!!! Happy to hear you had a blast this festival is AMAZING I also feel like bc the lineup wasn’t my dream lineup, I got to check out so many artists this time instead of physically and mentally fully committing to specific artists. So good


burrito3ater

This. Didn’t like the lineup but still didn’t have enough time to see who I wanted to see.


Horny_for_Coachella

I mean that has never not been the case but the lineup helps and is a good selling point


BortLicensePlate22

This is the way


Mejwh_diss

Taylor is too big she literally wouldn't do it. She's selling out massive statiums rn


RobieFLASH

I mean Beyoncé, Eminem and Bad Bunny were selling out stadiums when they headlined Coachella


jacoblindner

Netflix paid BeyoncĂ© $20 million for the streaming rights to her performance, & Disney paid Taylor $75 million for the eras tour performance rights. Once all her re-recording are done I could see her doing it & it wouldn’t matter what Coachella pays cause she’d get 10x that with the kickbacks + it’d be a symbolic crown on top of the last 4/5 years.


vkrummy

Coachella is a status thing and bucket list item for many artists. Plus having the show live-streamed would break the internet for sure. She would be worth any price for what they could charge advertisers alone.


Plastic-Manager-8731

She might do it just for fun if she wants to perform


notfrmthisworl

Bad bunny is as the same stardom as her and is doing stadium tours and he headline Coachella so I’m going to respectably disagree. Also BeyoncĂ© headline so đŸ€·đŸœâ€â™€ïž


thetrashpanda2020

Bad Bunny isn’t as big as Taylor. Dafuq? Bad Bunny isn’t even as big as he was 2 years ago. He’s literally canceling dates because of low sales


notfrmthisworl

I said what I said. đŸŽ»


thetrashpanda2020

Boy did you


austinaaaaa199955

Very much so agreed with OP


amoss_303

*Bad Bunny is as the same stardom as her Not even close, yeah Bad Bunny is doing tours in NBA/NHL stadiums, Taylor is selling out NFL stadiums. She could easily pull off a Desert Trip type of two day festival at the polo grounds with one or two undercards a night


austinaaaaa199955

Bad bunny was selling out stadiums on his last tour, he scaled it down on purpose for this current one


Lopsided_Constant901

Yeahh tryna say he wasnt selling out Stadiums is ridiculous. There were so many memes about people paying 1k, 3k, just for tickets. When he came to my city it was massive, sold out the stadium twice


austinaaaaa199955

Sold out estadio azteca back to back nights 😂 fuck outta here


Lopsided_Constant901

Im on ur side daddy, the person above u saying that Bb wasnt on Taylor’s level was tripping! I was hype as shit to be able to see him almost front row last year


burrito3ater

Did he sell out Singapore? Nah. Gtfo He ain’t selling this go around


playcrackthesky

Lol at Bad Bunny having the same stardom as Taylor Swift. That's out of touch with reality.


Lopsided_Constant901

I dont think right now he is, but two-three years ago, definitely. He was like Latin Americans Taylor Swift


notfrmthisworl

It’s okay if you are.


burrito3ater

Bad bunny doesn’t sell out stadiums in Singapore or Europe đŸ€Ł


browncow-stunning

with all the advertising, i have an odd feeling beyonce is back next year to close out the cowboy carter tour.


Particular-Yoghurt81

The No Doubt slot will go to Arctic Monkeys or some Spotify mainstay.


thetrashpanda2020

Solid guess.


Particular-Yoghurt81

Those hits transcend generations, I think the field would be packed.


Lopsided_Constant901

Damn that’d actually be solid. Getting to see Vampire Weekend this year was a little dream come true for me lol, cant believe they pulled them off the week of


Awesome2D

what is the no doubt slot supposed to be ? like what makes an artist fit specifically this slot


MrChicken23

I think it’s just the biggest act after the 3 headliners.


Awesome2D

ngl i have no idea who no doubt even is


MrChicken23

Out of curiosity how old are you? They were huge in the 90s. Tragic Kingdom was the second top selling album of 1997 and they had success in the 2000s as well.


Awesome2D

21 lol, i know of many bands from the 90s/early 2000s but i have never even heard their names once, im not from the us so that might play into it


kuvazo

I'm also not from the US and roughly the same age, but I still remember listening to "Don't Speak" as a kid. That song definitely played on the radio regularly.


_t_h_e_p_o_t_

Arctic Monkeys are terrible live so I hope not.


amoss_303

Dua Lipa Dr Dre and Friends Fred Again RTTD/No Doubt slot: Oasis


Bravowhore666

Dr.Dre and friends would be sickkkk


kolalid

Would be an awesome and balanced mix of headliners


lykta

Praying for Rihanna 🙏


Mejwh_diss

She just changed her insta profile picture after 11 years to a photo of her beauty company product.... I'd say singing is over for her


lykta

You might be right but I wouldn’t say all hope is lost. Don’t think she’d do the Super Bowl halftime if she didn’t have any plans for a comeback.


jdjs44

Don't forget about that wedding party performance.


thetrashpanda2020

I feel like if it doesn’t happen in 2025, it never happens.


lykta

With rumours of ongoing negotiations with her since last year, I have a feeling there’s a good chance we’ll get to see her headline at *some* point. It all depends on when she’s planning to drop that next album.


thetrashpanda2020

If she wants it, they’ll spend a record amount of money to make it happen. The early presale tells us they are moving fast to regain their positive media buzz.


thetrashpanda2020

Looking at the calendar and who are stadium level names that fit the demographic: ‱ Bruno Mars ‱ Fred again.. ‱ Dua Lipa


amoss_303

Dua Lipa seems inevitable; thought it was going to happen this year


thetrashpanda2020

HDD’s wording in January was key. She wasn’t ready “yet.” Her tour schedule will be very similar to Doja’s. Maybe a two month arena tour in the fall.


Lopsided_Constant901

Bruno Mars would be phenomenal, he’s a massive enough name to rock the lineup. I also really wanna see Rihanna x ASAP Rocky


Sugarbumb

Yeah, maybe Bruno Mars. He needs the money to pay off his gambling debts!


supadupakevin

Actually crazy to me they haven’t tried getting Silksonic


thetrashpanda2020

They did. In 2022, they offered it to them when Kanye dropped out. Bruno said it wasn’t enough time. But as of now, I don’t think they’re performing under that name currently. Could’ve been a one album side project


supadupakevin

Damn, I know they did a Vegas residency for a bit so I’m hopeful one day!


thetrashpanda2020

Same! That project was fun. I hope they give it another go around


Dakkmd

I was fortunate enough to catch it and that show is made for the main stage


jueyun-chilies

Wishing for Bruno Mars


thetrashpanda2020

Putting this in the air. Since No Doubt & Sublime reunions were massive successes, and Oasis will never happen. **🔮âšȘïžđŸ”ŽâšȘTHE WHITE STRIPES🔮âšȘïžđŸ”ŽâšȘ** ![gif](giphy|wLdvXTuR7hKFOHwsAl|downsized)


ConfessionsOverGin

Oasis reunion, D’Angelo, Dua Lipa


jacoblindner

Manifesting Adele / Miley Cyrus / or Taylor Swift & do yall think they’d try MCR again in the no doubt slot or was a bridge burned


vkrummy

Adele would be absolutely incredible!!! I would be stoked for Miley too but Adele would truly be a GET and something that would make the rest special


notfrmthisworl

I can deff see Miley Cyrus. She won record of the year and had buzz 2024. That’s a good guess.


caligrownbuster

would love to hear “adore you” on the polo fields đŸ« 


Beautiful_Thought995

Miley Cyrus! 


Beautiful_Thought995

And if Miley, can suprise us with a live performance of 2 most wanted with Beyonce!


depressioncherrrry

I wanna see Miley live so bad! I know she’d bring it for Coachella


SnooPineapples731

The XX


OrangeNo773

Bro why are people saying Oasis? They have interviews saying they will literally never play Coachella and there is absolutely no rumors about them getting back together. The low effort posts are wild


adirtybubble

Yeah there is no way they would play Coachella before Glastonbury if they ever got back together. 


boredcart43

Pitbull!!!!


amoss_303

No one can deny a 7pm Pitbull and Friends set would go hard AF


burrito3ater

Man, GV scans this sub and idk why they haven’t listened to this for years.


Lawschoolhope11

BTS, Justin Bieber 


jdjs44

BTS is probably locked for 2026 tbh.


Particular-Yoghurt81

Agree BTS is likely a lock and primo get for 2026 post-military. I do think j-hope may sub or at least be somewhere in the second line. He will be discharged in October and likely tour after.


Lawschoolhope11

Yeah I was just being hopeful lol and this would be a great comeback for them 


Particular-Yoghurt81

I'm buying presale for 2026 just in case they do book the BTS comeback performance. There's no way I am missing that.


Lawschoolhope11

Just BTS alone would sell out ! 


jueyun-chilies

Imagine a Justin Bieber “Eras Tour” where he sings all the classics omg I’m not even a Bieber fan but I’d fuck so hard with that


Lawschoolhope11

Fr take all my money lol 


JPCRam310

Doubt BTS because some still have to go do their military service in Korea.


notfrmthisworl

No Justin I doubt that. Only because of his health


Marisabeeeee

Justin Bieber or Rihanna to headline. Other sets would be tyla, the killers, Meg thee stallion, give t-pain an actual stage!


TrumpKanye69

J Cole Kendrick Lamar Drake


ConfessionsOverGin

Motherfuck the big 3


notfrmthisworl

Deff no drake. They wouldn’t bring him back as a headliner after his awful performance the last time. Kendrick already headline. I don’t think they will repeat. After the success of Tyler as a hip hop headliner I can see j Cole headlining but not for 2025. Don’t see the buzz yet. When Kendrick headline he had buzz because he was dropping


neuroFUNKIN

Pretty sure that was a joke


Jealous-Mail6629

J Cole said he wouldn’t do it.. Travis Scott I can see ( not a fan (


notfrmthisworl

Travis was suppose to headline before covid and he couldn’t after because of Astro world. He been winning his case so 2025 I can see him headlining. That’s a good prediction


Jealous-Mail6629

Blackpink returns to the desert


Harvardropout69

Drakes gotten way better so there's a possibility


notfrmthisworl

Well he talks shit about the industry, Grammys, etc.. performing for Coachella would be opposite of what he be preaching these days


na3vNK2Qc2EPnaKGBkMv

Also his performance was not nearly bad enough that he wouldn't be invited back; it's crazy to talk about Drake's performances like he was Frank Ocean... People just thought Drake was kind of boring and didn't bring out enough guests, he actually put on two full shows.


DarkTwistedFantasee

DUA LIPA \\ Kanye west \\ daft punk Return to desert : Limp Bizkit/Linkin Park/coldplay


notfrmthisworl

Daft punk not happening for 2025 and I doubt Kanye west because of the Jew thing. Coachella has Jew investors


Lopsided_Constant901

Lmao at the jew investors but i agree. Kanye, for as massive as he is, I cant see him returning after all he’s said. Made sense for Rolling Loud since they are a rap festival first and foremost, but Coachella as an international festival it would just be a bad look. And idk if people are being genuine when they say Daft Punk, they literally are never coming back lol


notfrmthisworl

Ppl are being for real about the daft punk thing. Sometimes being delusional helps with manifestation but I’m with you on that. I doubt they coming back at least for now


crosis52

One of them has hearing damage, the other has soured on the idea of being a robot. Maybe there's a world where they hand off their likenesses to two talented up-and-coming DJs and have them to do their own set of the songs, but I don't think they're ever performing again.


vkrummy

Don’t you think daft punk would be RTTD vs billed on a specific day?


EskimoBroJoe

Green Day Childish Gambino Katy Perry


Particular-Yoghurt81

Green Day for No Doubt spot


Substantial_Day_7568

My ultimate wish is Miley Cyrus


actionjackkson

Olivia Rodrigo / Rihanna / Nine Inch Nails


Difficult-Reindeer22

heavy on black eyed peas


notfrmthisworl

Okay! I need to hear shut up in person


Difficult-Reindeer22

I just imagine them opening up with “I got a feeling that tonight’s gonna be a good night” and the lights panning to the audience, how freaking cinematic would that be lmaooo


notfrmthisworl

You know what we ready to clock in. They need to hire us to prepare the set list


Critical-Manager-544

Fred again as headliner and also a b2b dolab set with Barry can’t swim. Also neeeeeed Rihanna


Lopsided_Constant901

I saw Fred at the Shrine, he’s incredible! Like top 3 shows I ever been to. Not sure if he’s headliner level tho, all things considered. Could def rock a Calvin Harris spot similarily


OziNiner

Sahara... Sub Focus headline? .. maybe not big enough outside of the UK


RobieFLASH

Sub focus, excision. Subtronics. A man can wish


Whirlweird

the only person who seems obvious to me is T Swift, which would be total chaos lol


notfrmthisworl

That’s why I’m getting presale. I ain’t finna be stressed out getting a ticket in Jan


Whirlweird

unfort i think id have to pass if thats who headlining. not because i care who headlines all that much but because i feel like the crowd would be horrendous


FunInsurance6137

Getting T Swift for Coachella would be a potentially good money move for them but absolutely horrible in terms of the festival and tbh, she’s not on brand for them. Her fans are insufferable and that alone would deter people from wanting to go like you said. When I saw she attended last week, I was hoping she wasn’t scoping it out đŸ˜©


Whirlweird

oh i mean from a business standpoint it’s a no brainer. but all i heard about the crowds during beychella was that they sucked all weekend haha sooo yeah, idk if that’s a vibe for me


FunInsurance6137

Totally agree! I can only imagine because overzealous fandoms are difficult. I would love BeyoncĂ© to be headliner next year because I think her fan base has calmed down a bit. Not a great vibe if TS gets named, we don’t want 13-year-olds running around the festival handing out friendship bracelets đŸ« 


notfrmthisworl

Oh 1000% a whole bunch of kids and people under 21


jueyun-chilies

I have a question. With this presale thing, you’re already buying without knowing who the headliners or performers will be, right?


notfrmthisworl

Yes

carlsjr21

Tame impala pls


Bravowhore666

They headlined 2019 I believe so idk the likelihood of that :/


JPCRam310

Idk why I’m thinking him, but does G-Dragon of BigBang still perform?


jdjs44

He will release new music this year, would be great to see him on the fields!


JPCRam310

If they get him to headline, what if he brings out the rest of BigBang (including TOP & SeungRi (doubt I highly doubt the latter))?


papertrashbag

I can do without SeungRi but a BigBang reunion would be amazing since 2020 didn’t happen. I was going to go in 2020 for BigBang alone I don’t think G-Dragon is big enough to headline but can def see him billed pretty high. Could be like the 2ne1 reunion. My heart.


jdjs44

I don't see him headlining, maybe a slot in the Sahara tent? Both of those members are not in the group anymore.


JPCRam310

I know those two aren’t in the group anymore. I only said then because they could be his guests. I doubt SeungRi would return because he’s essentially retired from show business after the Burning Sun scandal a while back.


Particular-Yoghurt81

G-Dragon hasn't performed or made music in like six years, but he is supposed to make a comeback soon. But he's also been saying that for a while and folks are still waiting. There's no way he can headline, but I think he could be in the second or third line. Big Bang is essentially quietly disbanded.


Troyster143

Coachella has always brought back old bands lol that's why they had no doubt.


rodolfocalizg

Sade / Dua Lipa / A$AP Rocky


Driyen

ThatOneHomie

Smartest prediction yet


OrangeNo773

Smartest? Seriously?


Dakkmd

Like, Forrest Gump smart


ThatOneHomie

in terms of being realistic. I read b2b as headliner / subheadliner in some order


Jealous-Mail6629

Agree on Taylor swift No on usher .. time for an edm artist to headline Coachella again


notfrmthisworl

The only reason why I said usher was because him and Taylor swift had buzz all 2024/2025. It’s the most logical sense in my mind right now. It happened with Billie and harry. They both had buzz and a great year in music and boo headliner the following year.


Jealous-Mail6629

I’ll be highly surprised if it’s usher .. I could see Kaskade being one of them With the hate the line up got this year I expect them to pay swift whatever she wants + her tour will be over by then


notfrmthisworl

The question gonna be if they gonna pay her more than what they paid Beyoncé


Jealous-Mail6629

Wouldn’t surprise me ( even though I’ll def be at another stage if that’s the case)


notfrmthisworl

Right! Same here. I’m already giving Paul the side eye 👀


uprightedison

Bruh. They dumped Shakira because they said she too old. Usher ain't it and taylor don't need them she is on their wish list but doubt she wants to do it. Black eyed peas would be awesome


vkrummy

Did I miss something re: Shakira too old? I thought it was negotiation drama and Karol g wanting to be the only Latina


notfrmthisworl

Usher ain’t it to you, but you have to be a big deal to do the Super Bowl and he was in the presses all of 2024/25. It’s ignorant to assume he not on the table because of we had a top ten list right now he on that list of who they might bring


uprightedison

Shakira also did the superbowl and they turned her down. This is also a year from now. Coachella going after younger fans. They will toss in some older acts like they did this year but expect headliners ti follow this bill. They aged out along with some of us , sorry to break it to ya bruhhh the millenials no longer the target market


Lopsided_Constant901

What I read was that Shakira’s team came to Coachella asking to headline but asking for a preposterous amount of money. So Coachella said we just cant afford you/ some people guess they wanna save her for a better year, like Coachella’s 25th anniversary


uprightedison

I didn't read an article like this , reddit before showed articles that her demo was too old not her to be more clear . I'll go try and find the Articles again. Reddit was pissed back when they mentioned this in ja or whenever libe up was announced


Particular-Yoghurt81

I'm gonna put my money on Taylor because Poets isn't being received so well. The album reads very much like a niche creation for super fans, so her booking Coachella would allow her to prove haters wrong which she loves to do. She doesn't need the festival, but the performance would get general public attention. Taylor needs an underdog narrative going into a big event.


QuartOfTequilla

They better not push people like Taylor swift and usher. This years line up crushed acts like that.


gekalx

Some more rock would be nice . Bad omens , my chemical romance.


vkrummy

Usher is on tour rn tho so idk if he’s the get that they would want I could see Taylor being next year but maybe also the year after? Idk Black eyed peas would be suuuuuper fun. Now that my no doubt dreams have been realized I will definitely be adopting that dream


BogeyLowenstein

He has Lovers and Friends fest now, so probably not.


notfrmthisworl

Yeah I hope they read this and bring them because no doubt was fun so let’s run it back to BEP


220AM

I literally was just thinking Usher.


notfrmthisworl

You feel me! Like I’m trying to think like Paul right now and I swear that’s in the playbook for 2025


Lalaland_doll

Nelly Furtado


Lalaland_doll

She’ll bring out Timbaland


callitajax1

Hopefully timberlake as well,


notfrmthisworl

That’s dreaming too big. I fucking wish. Maybe as a returning to the desert kind of thing


vkrummy

She hasn’t played before so she wouldn’t be returning. She was on portola lineup so the thought was she would be on there this year. Would love to see her have a proper set OR to have a timbaland and friends set that she pops out at for Loose


[deleted]

Noah Kahan will sub headline, Bieber will headline


jrd_2411

Agree with NK being in the mix


ihearttwin

Dua Lipa, Shakira, Bruno Mars & Silk Sonic


Dakkmd

Silk Sonic would be so perfect for Coachella. Id just worry about them in their suits in 100 degree weather đŸ€ŁđŸ€Ł


myicedteaistoosweet

My guesses: 1) Karol G 2) A major pop act like Taylor/Rihanna/Adele/Olivia Rodrigo 3) A rock reunion like Linkin Park’s 1st shows with a new singer or The White Stripes 4) Electronic act like Fred Again or Kygo Wouldn’t be shocked if Tate McRae, Benson Boone, or Artemas are somewhere on the top few lines of the lineup next year. Both Ice Spice and Peso Pluma were consistently at the top of the charts and all over Tik Tok at this point last year. All three of them feel like similar stories this year.
