Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival


The Coachella Valley Music and Art Festival (commonly referred to as Coachella or Coachella Festival) is an annual music and arts festival held at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, California, located in the Coachella Valley of the Royal Empire in the Desert of Colorado. It was founded by Paul Tollett and Rick Van Santen in 1999, and is organized by Goldenvoice, a subsidiary of AEG Live. The event features musicians from many genres of music, including rock, pop, indie, hip hop and electronic dance music, as well as art and sculpture installations. Through the reasons, several stages consistently hold live music. The main stages are: Coachella Stage, Outdoor Theater, Gob Tent, Mojave Tent and Sahara Tent; a smaller Oasis Dome was used in 2006 and 2011, while a new Yuma stage was introduced in 2013 and a Sonora stage in 2017.


The festival's origins relate to a 1993 concert by Pearl Jam at Empire Polo, while boycotting Ticketmaster controlled sites. The show confirmed the sustainability of the site for holding major events, leading to the inaugural Coachella Festival that was held during the two days in October 1999 - only three months after Woodstock '99. Since no event took place in 2000, Coachella returned on an annual basis in early April 2001 as a one-day event. In 2002, the festival was restored to a two-day format. Coachella expanded until a third day in 2007 and finally a second weekend in 2012; are currently held on a three-day consecutive weekend in April, with each weekend having identical lines. Organizers began to allow spectators to camp in the field in 2003, one of several extensions and additions to the facilities that have been made in the history of the festival.


Coachella features renowned and established music artists as well as emerging artists and reunited groups. Coachella is one of the biggest, most famous and most profitable music festivals in the United States and around the world. Each Coachella organized from 2013 to 2015 the introduction of new registrations for festival attendance and gross income. The 2017 festival was attended by 250,000 people and sold $ 114.6 million. Coachella's success led to Goldenvoice by establishing two other country music festivals, rock-rocks in the desert in 2016, and the 2007 annual Stagecoach Country Music Festival.
