The annual Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival is almost here, and festival-goers still have a chance to get tickets. Headliners Lana Del Rey, Tyler, The Creator, and Doja Cat are among the many highly anticipated performers scheduled to appear at the Indio, California festival. With just over a week until the festival starts, we’ve put together a guide on how to get Coachella tickets for the best prices.
The 2024 festival comes after a bumpy couple of years, where headliners like Frank Ocean and Kanye West pulled out either before or mid-way through the two-weekend festival. In the past, original standard tickets for the festival have sold out in a matter of hours or sometimes days, but ticket sales this year were slower at launch than they’ve been in the past ten years. So, if you’ve been hoping to get your hands on some tickets, this might just be your chance.
