Each year, the Coachella lineup manages to mix together familiar music festival headliners, out-of-left-field reunions and under-the-radar buzz bands. Get the rundown of every artist playing the fest with the full Coachella 2022 lineup—and keep up with schedule info, must-see acts and local shows.

Who’s headling the Coachella 2022 lineup?

Harry Styles, Billie Eilish and Ye (formerly known as Kanye West) top this year’s lineup, with additional sets from Swedish House Mafia, Lil Baby, Phoebe Bridgers, Flume, Megan Thee Stallion, Disclosure, 21 Savage, Danny Elfman, Doja Cat, Joji, Jamie xx and Run the Jewels, among others.

When will the Coachella set times be released?

The full Coachella schedule (which is slated for April 15–17 and 22–24) is typically released a few days before each respective weekend. That means you’ll have to hold tight until April before you can sort out any schedule conflicts (though the folks behind Coachella are typically pretty great at programming each day).

Where’s the festival map for this year?

Like the schedule, the map arrives only days before gates open. Recent fests had made some meaningful changes to accommodate the increased crowd capacity (notably moving the Sahara tent), so we’ll see if the first Coachella in three years has any additional changes in store.

What’s the full Coachella 2022 lineup?

Check out the poster for full Coachella lineup, followed by the list of artists (current as of January 12) in alphabetical order.

Coachella 2022 festival lineup: 5 big takeaways

]

The lineup for the 2022 edition of the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival finally arrived late Wednesday, though its headliners — Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, Billie Eilish, and Harry Styles — had leaked in the days and hours before.

And perhaps more than any pre-pandemic year, it’s a tricky lineup to assess.

There are a good number of returnees from the 2020 lineup that was not to be, 21 Savage, Carly Rae Jepsen, and Hot Chip among them, though that year’s headliners — Rage Against the Machine, Travis Scott, and Frank Ocean — are absent.

And while 2019, the last Coachella we had, featured a worldly and diverse mix of acts — BLACKPINK from South Korea, J Balvin from Colombia, Burna Boy from Nigeria —Coachella has continued its global reach, with Asian acts especially well represented.

So while there’s much more research to be done — some of these artists weren’t on anyone’s Coachella radar two years ago, after all — we’ll take our first pass at running the lineup through our ought-to-be-patented InstantLineupAnalyzer and see what five themes for 2022 our trusty machine spits out.

Pop rocks: Billie Eilish is cool pop. Harry Styles is pop rock. And Carly Rae Jepsen, well, she’s my queen. Pop traditionally meant fluffier stuff, songs and artists who sold a ton of records. But here we’ll make the case that it’s simply music with irresistible melodies, smartly crafted, and aimed straight at the heart of its listeners.

Some of it rocks a lot: if you’ve seen a Harry Styles show you know how much he loves ’70s rock, and Phoebe Bridgers does more singer-songwriter kind of lower-volume rock.

Some is introspective: Japanese Breakfast writes beautiful songs that make strong emotional connections. Others, like Doja Cat, whose spot in the lineup is much higher now than it was in 2020, come from a hip-hop aspect.

If it’s a song you wanna sing along to, and it moves your heart, it doesn’t matter how much it sells, we’re calling it pop.

The 88rising effect: Like in 2020, the 88rising music company gets special billing on the 2022 Coachella lineup poster, with a tagline at the bottom pledging Head In The Clouds Forever, a shoutout to its festival which 88rising in general champions Asian and Asian American artists.

Scattered across the lineup are names that just played the third Head In The Clouds festival in Pasadena a few months ago: Niki, Rich Brian, Joji, Beabadoobee and Japanese Breakfast among them.

But the diversity of the lineup goes beyond that one company and festival. Japan’s Kyary Pamyu Pamyu returns from 2020’s lineup, and the heavy metal Mongolians the Hu are back, too.

Rock or pebbles: If a time traveler from Coachella 2005 happened on this lineup they wouldn’t know what to make of the rock bands on the poster, or lack thereof. This isn’t a new trend by far, but with Rage Against the Machine dropping out of a headlining spot it feels more obvious this year.

You do still have some fine choices though. The British-Irish band Idles is a terrific post punk band. The English electronic rock band Spiritualized will float you off to some distant, groovy cloud. Australia’s King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard traffic in psychedelia. I’m looking forward to Måneskin, the Italian hard rockers who won the most recent Eurovision Song Contest.

Rap still rules: With the former Kanye West headlining again this year, rap has a prestige spot on the lineup. But the undercard is solid too: 21 Savage, Megan Thee Stallion, Run The Jewels, Brockhampton and Lil Baby are guaranteed to draw huge crowds.
Fresh faces and oddballs: Every Coachella has a good portion of acts that you kinda-really-wanna-got-to-catch. They might be rising stars like Yola or Caroline Polachek or elder statesmen like Fatboy Slim and Richie Hawtin.

Others might not fit neatly into any mold: Danny Elfman is both an acclaimed film composer and the leader of beloved and defunct band Oingo Boingo. What he does at Coachella will pull one of the widest age ranges of any set.

Orville Peck is the fringe-masked Canadian country singer — I’m there for that. The Avalanches were fantastic last time they played the desert — I’ll be back for them.

Watch: They’re Back! ‘TS2 Terminators 2: Primary Targets’ Short Film

He’s back! A few years ago, a French editor named Fabrice Mathieu put together a fun fan film titled TS: Terminators, mashing up footage from all of the Terminator movies to tell a different story involving Arnold Schwarzenegger’s various robots fighting each other. He’s back again with TS2 Terminators 2: Primary Targets, the highly anticipated sequel to his first TS short. The story in the sequel takes place after James Cameron’s Terminator 2: Judgment Day - “this time, the Connors are on their own.” As amusing as this is, there’s so much creativity in taking existing content and remixing / re-editing to make something new. That rad little car from the movie Black Moon Rising is pretty dang cool, I want one now. Fire this up and enjoy.

Thanks to Fabrice for the tip on this. Story description from YouTube: “After the destruction of the T-1000, Sarah and John changed their identities and began a new life. But, the T-800s are back to eliminate them. This time, the Connors are on their own.” TS2: Terminators 2: Primary Targets is a short film edited and directed by French filmmaker Fabrice Mathieu - follow him @MathieuFabrice for more updates, or visit his Vimeo page to see more of his work. This features footage and music (by Marco Beltrami, Danny Elfman, Brad Fiedel) from all of the other Terminator movies (except for last year’s Dark Fate), as well as tons of other movies (full list on YT).
