Coachella is a large annual music festival held in Indio, in California’s desert. It takes place over two weekends, with many of the same performers appearing at each, and draws audiences for pop, rock, electronic and other kinds of music.
Headliners are the acts given the most prominent place on the bill, while the festival also features many other performers. Dua Lipa is a British pop singer, Tame Impala is the Australian music project led by Kevin Parker, SZA is an American singer-songwriter, and Daddy Yankee is a Puerto Rican artist known for his role in bringing reggaeton to a global audience.
