The story
The Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival takes place in Indio, California, featuring a diverse lineup of music and art every year during two weekends in April.

The festival includes multiple stages and areas for performances, as well as on-site camping options for attendees.
Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival is a 10-day edm, electronic, pop festival at Empire Polo Club in Indio, United States. The April 2027 edition runs 9–18 Apr 2027. It draws around 75,000 people.
Expect stages split between EDM, Electronic and Pop.
At around 75,000 attendees it sits in the mid-to-large bracket — big stages and big production, but still walkable end to end. Everything happens at Empire Polo Club, in Indio. Indio · 2 km · about 5 min is the organiser's practical nearby base for accommodation and transfers to the festival site. On-site camping available for as low as $40 per night.
Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival keeps the same calendar slot each year: April 2027 for this edition, opening on a Friday and closing on a Sunday. It falls in spring, ahead of the summer festival rush, which usually keeps travel cheaper than the July and August dates. That slot matters for the budget — flights and rooms in Indio are priced for the festival weekend, not the week around it, so shifting your arrival by a day often saves more than any ticket tier does.

- 1Book the ticket first: tiers at Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival are sold in waves and the cheapest wave is gone long before the line-up is complete.
- 2Then price the travel from Paris — Cinderella compares train, bus, car and flight for the same dates, and the cheapest option is not always the obvious one.
- 3Reserve 11 nights rather than 10: the last night of a festival almost always ends after the last train home.
- 4If you fly into Palm Springs International Airport, check the transfer time to Indio before booking the earliest departure — the airport bus is usually the cheapest leg of the whole trip.
- 5Follow Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival on Cinderella to be emailed when a ticket price drops or a new tier opens.
