Coachella 2014 Lineup Announced With Arcade Fire, Outkast & Muse Headlining
Get ready for some desert fun, music-lovers! Coachella announced their 2014 lineup with Arcade Fire, Outkast (reunited!), and Muse as headliners over two weekends, April 11-13 and April 18-20.
Arcade Fire and Muse will be making their return to the Empire Polo Fields in Indio, as they both played at the fest back in 2011 and 2010, respectively. Other major acts include Motörhead, Lorde, Queens of the Stone Age, Neutral Milk Hotel, Lana Del Rey, Beck, Disclosure, Chvrches, Skrillex, The Replacements, MGMT, HAIM, Calvin Harris, Skrillex, Broken Bells, Empire of the Sun, The Knife, Blood Orange, Ty Segall, Chromeo, Washed Out, Ellie Goulding, Chance the Rapper, Sleigh Bells, and much more.
Festival passes will go on sale for both weekends on Fri., Jan. 10 at 10 a.m. PST. General admission festival passes for Weekend 1 must be purchased as a shuttle combination. However, all pass types are available for Weekend 2. And unfortunately, kiddos, layaway options are no longer available for either weekend.
