The 11th Coachella Valley Music & Arts festival lineup was announced yesterday. The artists include Thom Yorke, Vampire Weekend, Faith No More, David Guetta, Devo and many more. Coachella runs from Friday, April 16 – through Sunday April 18 at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, CA.

Coachella is one of the most fun concerts a music lover can go to. It is exhausting, but worth it. The best part of Coachella is being exposed to new bands. Festival goers can purchase 3-day festival tickets starting January 22, at 10am. There are always layaway payment plans for onsite camping. In the past they have listed individual days for sale, but that is only if there are tickets after the 3 day sale. Three-day weekend passes are $269 plus surcharges. You can find all information at www.coachella.com.
