Support & FAQ

After you’ve looked around the website, you may have a few more questions. This is a great place to look.

General

info icon
Will the Coachella lineup be the same both weekends?

That’s the plan!

*Except for our newest stage Quasar.

Wow, there are lots of artists performing! Will I see all of them?

There is no guarantee. Many artists will be performing at the same time and some areas will have limited capacities. You should plan accordingly and arrive early if there’s a particular performer you really want to see. Also, the lineup is always subject to change (whether due to volcanoes or any other reason).

Will you be posting set times in advance?
Yes. Set times will be posted on the Coachella Mobile App a couple of days before the festival. Lineup & Set Times subject to change.
Can my band play at Coachella? Can I DJ at Coachella? Can I perform at Coachella?

We’ll contact you if interested. Thanks!

What time does the festival end?

1am-ish on Friday & Saturday and 12am on Sunday - give or take a few. Subject to change. Review festival hours.

Is there an age limit/rule?

No. The festival is all ages. Kids 5 & under are free.

Must be 18 to camp.

What's the best time to arrive?
You should definitely plan to arrive several hours early to be on the safe side. Please be prepared for significant delays if you choose to disobey all signage and staff. Carpool, carpool, CARPOOL! For the easiest and fastest arrival and departure, take a shuttle.
What will the weather be like at the festival? How hot will it be during the day and how cold will it be at night?
What are you doing to ensure my safety at the festival?

For more on public safety, see our Health & Safety FAQ.

I'm a member of the media? How do I make arrangements for a media pass?

Please visit our contact page and select “Press/Media Inquiries”.

I'm a photographer (for a big, stuffy important publication, for a hip online news outlet, for my own blog, for myself, etc.). How do I make arrangements for a photo pass?
Photo Passes will be distributed at the discretion of the Festival and cannot be specifically requested as part of your press application. We will provide syndicated photos from our on-site photographers for use.
Are you hiring workers, volunteers, photographers/video people, etc for the event?

No, but thanks for checking! If we change our minds or anything opens up, we will post about it. You can review all Goldenvoice/AEG company jobs on our careers page. If it’s not listed there, it’s not something we are hiring for.

Bartenders contact us a lot too — for those roles, check the available listings.

(You will still show up in our records as the original purchaser. That can’t be changed.)

Please note: If your package is unable to be delivered for any reason whatsoever, you, the original purchaser, will be required to pick it up from the Box Office as no alternate Will Call pickups are allowed.

Please review our Shipping Info for more details.

How do I use my Payment Plan Default / Credit?

Here’s a Step-by-Step Guide:

  1. Once you’ve entered the Coachella AXS shopping cart, add your desired passes for purchase.
  2. On the Payment Info page of the checkout process, you will see your credit amount and select “Apply” to use the credit towards your purchase.
  3. If you change your mind and do not want to apply the credit to your order, you can click “Remove Credit” on the same Payment Info page.
  4. You can then choose another form of payment for your remaining balance.

If your credit amount does not cover the order total, you will need to pay the remaining balance with a different payment method. You can enter your credit card information on the Payment Info page for the remaining balance. A payment plan option is available for the remaining balance if it is over $100.

Where can I see my Payment Plan Default / Credit?

Your Coachella Credit will be in your FanAccount.

If you don't use your credit within 12 months from the date of issuance, you will lose it.

Can I apply my Payment Plan Default / Credit to another event?

Your Coachella credit will only be available to be used toward Coachella.

Can I apply my Payment Plan Default / Credit to a Waitlist Request/order?

No, however you can contact AXS Order Support after your waitlist order is filled and they can manually help refund your default / credit back to your credit card for that purchase.

Can I apply my Payment Plan Default / Credit to an AXS Resale Purchase?

No. Resale orders are sold from other fans and they don’t take credit.

Can I use a debit card for purchase?
We recommend using an actual credit card, not a debit card. If you are using a debit card, make sure you know your daily withdrawal limit. If you exceed that amount, your card may be rejected and order lost. Contact your bank to inquire about your debit card limit.
When is my order being shipped? How do I track my order?
Please review our Getting Your Order details.

The last day to update your AXS order shipping address is Wednesday, February 17, 2027 for Weekend 1 and Wednesday, February 24, 2027 for Weekend 2.

How do I bring my medical prescription?

All prescriptions must be in properly labeled containers that match the holder’s ID (No pillboxes!). Cold storage for medication is located at the Camping Main Medical and Venue Main Medical (located between Gobi and Mojave) tents.

How do I bring insulin or other medical-related items or supplies?

You should identify yourself to security as you wait to enter the Venue. Festival Personnel will locate the medical staff adjacent to the main entrance who will assist you in providing a secure area to store all items. Medical-related items that are not available for purchase on site, food included, may be brought in. You may be asked to provide an official doctor’s note or prescription detailing the necessity of the item. Cold storage for medication is located at the Camping Main Medical and Venue Main Medical (located between Gobi and Mojave) tents.

Hey, since cannabis is legal now, that means I can use it at Coachella, right?

Cannabis or cannabis products aren’t allowed inside the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival. If that changes, we will update this answer.

Are strollers allowed in the venue?
Yes. But, only if it’s for an infant or toddler.
How big is a medium backpack? How will this be enforced?

A medium backpack should be no bigger than 18”x13”x8.5” when fully packed. Bags will have to fit into a box of that size, similar to the system used to check the size of carry-on luggage at airports. If the bag doesn’t fit in the box, you won’t be allowed inside the Venue.

So, I can bring a parasol, but not an umbrella? What's the difference?

You’ve got it right. Here are some examples:  

umbrellas and parasols graphic

Parasols will not deflect water as an umbrella does. Most parasols are made of paper and a light wood as bamboo, not metal and water resistant material.

If it falls into the dimensions of 23” long / 32” wide opened its good.

Also non metal stemmed handle and scoping pole. Light weight wood such as bamboo.

Can I bring a sign or totem? Can you elaborate on your "no totems" rule?
No signs are allowed. This includes all handheld signs or signs and items attached to poles or pool noodles or apparatus used to display anything above the head. All instances of the above will be subject to surrender and not returned.
Can I bring Naloxone with me?

Yes, Naloxone is permitted for personal use.

Yes! Try this.

Can I bring a guitar or other musical instrument?

Acoustic instruments only will be allowed into camping. Please be courteous of your neighbors and abide by the noise curfew. If Crowd Management Staff (security) asks you to quiet down, please do so, damn it.

Can I bring family to the camping area?
All campground attendees must be 18 years of age or older, with ID. Or, if under 18, all attendees must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. (See below for information on Legal Guardianship) Every camper must have their own festival pass.
What defines a legal guardian?

A legal guardian is a person who has the legal authority and corresponding duty to care for the personal and property interests of another person, called a ward. Usually, a person has the status of guardian because the ward is incapable of caring for his or her own interests due to infancy, incapacity, or disability.

Most countries and states have laws that provide that the parents of a minor child are the legal guardians of that child, and that the parents can designate who shall become the child’s legal guardian in the event of death.

A legal guardianship is obtained through court order, and the legal process for doing so is initiated by the prospective guardian.

Please note: An older sibling, older friend or friend of the family does not automatically count as a legal guardian. A legal guardian is someone who would be held legally responsible for you by a court of law. Generally, a legal guardian is the one who takes care of the minor when the minor’s birth-parents are no longer living, in jail or have lost their legal rights.

How does the La Campana cooling unit work?

Portable cooling units included in La Campana Tents each features an adjustable thermostat. We recommend the units are set to 72° for best performance.

For context, each unit is rated to cool insulated, interior spaces up to about 875 sq. ft. Since canvas bell tents are not insulated and we’re in the desert, the units’ performance will differ from these specified conditions.

Can I run my La Campana cooling unit all day?

As long as power is pumping! We recommend raising the temperature when you are out of your tent to optimize energy usage.

Can I bring a cooler, extra chairs, tables, shade, etc. when staying in La Campana?

If it fits within your space!

What kind of speakers can I bring? What speakers are not allowed?

Here’s an example of Prohibited speakers:

Do not bring. Prohibited items are not allowed in.

If you don’t leave immediately with your prohibited item, you are not getting it back.
