Coachella 2025 brought a dynamic blend of veteran icons and new-era chart-toppers to the stage. Lady Gaga, Green Day, and Post Malone headlined the festival, each delivering unforgettable performances that lit up the Empire Polo Club across both weekends. Travis Scott also made waves with a special late-night set at the Coachella Stage on both Saturdays, drawing his large fan base. Still, some of the most jaw-dropping moments came from artists further down the lineup. Charli XCX’s Saturday night set attracted one of the largest audiences of the weekend, complete with high-octane choreography, surprise guests, and a setlist packed with fan favorites. Rising pop star Benson Boone stunned festivalgoers by bringing out Queen guitarist Brian May for a live rendition of “Bohemian Rhapsody”—and yes, Boone even pulled off a few backflips during his performance.
Surprise guests, genre-blending sets, and eye-popping visuals kept the crowd energized across the sprawling festival grounds.
Whether you were front and center at the Coachella Stage or discovering a hidden gem at one of the smaller tents, this year’s event continued the festival’s legacy as a trendsetting cultural moment—and fans are already counting down the days until 2026.
