Goldenvoice opened registration and set general on‑sale for Sept. 19, 2025 with early access for 2024/2025 purchasers, and added new group‑camping options that require a minimum 10 spots per group. (coachellavalley.com) All festival passes were declared sold out just three days after tickets were released, an Instagram post from the festival confirmed as organizers urged would‑be buyers to join official waitlists. (vice.com) Regular three‑day GA pricing before sellout started in the mid‑hundreds of dollars, and resale listings surged on secondary markets such as StubHub and SeatGeek within 72 hours of the on‑sale. (usatoday.com) Organizers confirmed an expanded international roster that mixes established acts and returning festival favorites, including electronic artist Anyma, legacy bands The Strokes and The xx, and K‑pop group BIGBANG among the supporting bill. (coachellavalley.com) The 2026 program marks a milestone for Latin music representation on Coachella’s main stages by naming a Latina as a headliner for the first time in the festival’s history. (eonline.com) Rolling Stone reports that visa hurdles likely kept several música mexicana acts off the 2026 poster, a factor that tempered some of the festival’s broader representation across North American genres. (rollingstone.com) Coachella’s official announcement also confirmed YouTube as the exclusive livestream partner for both weekends and offered official hotel packages through Valley Music Travel alongside Ready‑Set and La Campana tent camping options.
