Stagecoach 2026

Three days at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, on the same desert grounds Coachella uses the weekend before. Stagecoach is country at its loudest and most populist, but the booking has long since stopped pretending it’s only country: Post Malone headlines after a year of crossover hits, Lainey Wilson and Cody Johnson hold down the modern Nashville centre, and the lineup makes room for Brooks & Dunn and Hootie & the Blowfish on the legacy end. The Late Night Diplo tent is where things turn properly weird, with Bush, Marshmello, Pitbull and Journey passing through across the weekend. It is a country festival that behaves like a destination event, with food, rodeo and the same dust and palm trees the rest of the Coachella Valley calendar trades on.
