Coachella 2020 announces a powerful lineup featuring Brazilian superstars Anitta and Pabllo Vittar, alongside headliners Travis Scott, Frank Ocean, and Rage Against the Machine. Despite its diverse roster, the festival draws criticism for having no women among the top headliners for the first time since 2016.
Brazilian pop icons Anitta and Pabllo Vittar bring global representation to Coachella 2020
We are beginning a new year, and for many of us living in the U.S., 2020 already has eyes set on April with the official Coachella 2020 lineup, which includes two Brazilian superstars: Anitta and Pabllo Vittar.
They are scheduled to perform on Saturdays, April 11 and April 19 respectively, alongside major headliners such as Travis Scott.
There are a plethora of musical acts waiting to wow festival attendees over two weekends in mid-April.
According to the official lineup release:
- Weekend 1 (April 10–12) is already sold out due to advance sales
- Weekend 2 (April 17–19) tickets are still available via pre-sale
- Remaining tickets go on sale Monday, January 6, 2020 at 3 PM (Pacific Time)
Headliners and Major Acts
On the night of January 2nd, rumors were confirmed when the full Coachella 2020 lineup was revealed.
This year’s main headliners include:
- Travis Scott
- Frank Ocean
- Rage Against the Machine
The festival returns to Indio, California, starting Friday, April 10th.
Global Highlights and Reunion Moments
A major highlight of the festival is the reunion of K-pop legends BIGBANG, returning after a hiatus. Their last group activity was in March 2018, with the release of “Flower Road.”
Other major performers include:
- Lana Del Rey
- Run the Jewels
- Lil Uzi Vert
- Calvin Harris
- FKA Twigs
- 21 Savage
- Lil Nas X
- Charli XCX
- Summer Walker
- Megan Thee Stallion
- DaBaby (Coachella debut)
Travis Scott, Frank Ocean, and Rage Against the Machine headline the festival in Indio, California.
Gender Representation Debate
A key point of discussion this year is the lack of female headliners.
After consecutive years featuring:
- Lady Gaga
- Beyoncé
- Ariana Grande
Coachella 2020 will have no women among the three main headliners, marking the first time this has happened since 2016.
This becomes even more notable considering Lana Del Rey, often associated with Coachella’s aesthetic, is positioned in a supporting slot rather than headliner status.
Brazilian Presence at Coachella
Brazil is represented this year by two major artists:
- Anitta
- Pabllo Vittar
Both are part of the growing global influence of Brazilian pop music in international festivals.
