Groups BIGBANG, SHINee’s Taemin, and KATSEYE will perform on the dream stage of the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival.
On the 16th (local time), it was announced that Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival (hereafter “Coachella”), which will be held in Indio, California, from April 10–12 and April 17–19, 2026, will feature Justin Bieber, Sabrina Carpenter, Karol G, and Anima as headliners. Known as the world’s largest music festival, being selected as a headliner symbolizes an artist’s status and influence. Last year, Lady Gaga, Green Day, Post Malone, and Travis Scott headlined, while in 2023, BLACKPINK made history as the first Asian act to headline the festival.
Among Korean artists, BIGBANG, SHINee member Taemin, and KATSEYE will be performing. BIGBANG was originally scheduled to perform at Coachella in 2020, but the event was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, leading to the cancellation of their stage as well. For both Taemin and KATSEYE, this marks their first appearance at Coachella, raising anticipation for the performances they will bring to the iconic stage.
Also set to perform are The xx, Disclosure, The Strokes, Giveon, Young Thug, and Kaskade, among others. Coachella 2026 will take place over six days, from April 10–12 and April 17–19.
