Coachella lineup tweak

Coachella’s second weekend opens Friday, April 17, with a different Saturday surprise: Kacey Musgraves is now on the Mojave stage. (coachella.com) Musgraves is scheduled for Saturday, April 18, from 3 to 3:50 p.m. in Mojave, the same slot Jack White played during Weekend 1, according to Coachella’s updated set times and local coverage. (coachella.com) (latimes.com) Anyma is also back on the schedule after his Weekend 1 set was canceled, with his “ÆDEN” production listed for midnight during Weekend 2. The Los Angeles Times reported the earlier cancellation came with wind concerns that are not in Thursday’s forecast. (latimes.com) The changes underscore how Coachella’s two weekends are no longer exact repeats, even when the festival keeps the same April 17-19, 2026 closing weekend format at the Empire Polo Club in Indio. Coachella’s own FAQ says the lineup is not guaranteed to be identical both weekends. (coachella.com 1) (coachella.com 2) That matters for people deciding whether to go in person or watch from home. Coachella says Weekend 2 will stream live on YouTube from April 17-19 across seven stages, and YouTube listings show the broadcast starting at 4 p.m. Pacific on Friday. (coachella.com) (youtube.com) USA Today’s Weekend 2 guide and other livestream roundups say major sets on the stream include Justin Bieber and Sabrina Carpenter, giving viewers access to many of the festival’s biggest names without a pass. (usatoday.com) (consequence.net) On the ground, logistics are tighter than the lineup shuffle. Weekend 2 lockers are sold out, and Coachella’s locker page says General Admission lockers are inside the venue near the main entrance and come with a refundable $10 deposit on the combo lock. (usatoday.com) (coachella.com) With no locker reservations left, attendee guides are pushing basics that fit in a day bag: sunscreen, wipes, portable chargers and comfortable shoes for hot days and colder nights. Coachella’s locker page separately warns that 18 by 13 by 8.5 inches is the largest bag size allowed. (nationaltoday.com) (coachella.com) Festival rules are also shaping what people can carry through the gates. Coachella’s ticketing and festival information pages bar outside food and drinks, professional cameras, and illegal substances, and say bringing prohibited items can lead to ejection. (axs.com) (coachella.com) So Weekend 2 arrives with a new country-pop set, a rescheduled electronic spectacle, and less margin for packing mistakes. For fans, the choice is now clearer: chase the revised schedule in Indio, or catch the reshuffled festival on the livestream. (coachella.com 1) (coachella.com 2)
