Rage Against The Machine And Travis Scott To Headline Coachella 2022

Coachella has revealed two major headliners for the 2022 edition of the festival.

Coachella co-founder Paul Tollett has confirmed Rage Against the Machine and Travis Scott will headline in 2022. Meanwhile, Frank Ocean, who was set to headline last year, had been bumped back to 2023.

“Right now, it’s the Wild West,” Tollett said during a Los Angeles Times interview. “I’m just trying to be as fair as I can to artists and to the fans to make sure that eventually they get to see everyone that we talked about.”

Tollett explained that Ocean was not available to play Coachella in next year, so his appearance has been moved to 2023. A third, as-yet-unnamed headliner has already been booked to take his place.

Tollett also confirmed that acts like Megan Thee Stallion and Doja Cat, who were booked for Coachella 2020, will play Coachella 2022.

Coachella 2022 takes place on April 15 – 17 and April 22 – 24.
