Coachella is officially here, and the desert is calling. Taking place over two weekends—April 10 to 12 and April 17 to 19—the iconic music festival will once again offer ticket holders an unforgettable lineup of performers.
Among them is a full-on pop comeback moment: Justin Bieber headlines Coachella on Saturday, April 11, marking his first major live set in years—and one of the most anticipated performances of the festival. Here’s everything you need to know before he takes the stage.
What day is Justin Bieber performing at Coachella?
Bieber headlines the Coachella Stage on Saturday, April 11, and Saturday, April 18.
What time is Justin Bieber performing at Coachella?
The April 11 performance is scheduled to start at 11:25pm, following sets by artists including the Strokes earlier in the evening. Like most Coachella headliners, expect the set to run well past midnight. If you want a decent spot, plan to camp out during the preceding acts, because this will be one of the weekend’s most crowded sets.
How many times has Justin Bieber headlined Coachella?
This is Bieber’s first time headlining Coachella. Not only that, but this is something of a live performance comeback after several turbulent years, including health issues that forced him to cancel a 2022 tour. He only recently returned to the stage with a Grammy Award performance and a small warm-up show in Los Angeles, making this his first major festival set in years.
Has Justin Bieber’s setlist for Coachella been announced?
Not yet, but we can likely expect a mix of hits and newer material from his recent albums Swag and Swag II, which he previewed during a surprise show ahead of the festival. Fans on-site during his recent soundcheck claimed he performed “Sorry,” “Yukon,” “Baby,” “Favorite Girl,” “One Less Lonely Girl” and “All That Matters.”
Will any special guests be joining Justin Bieber’s Coachella set?
It’s Coachella, so almost definitely, although nothing is confirmed. Still, Bieber has a deep bench of collaborators and a history of surprise appearances, so fans can expect at least one high-profile guest. If Bieber is playing early-career hits, that might include Usher and Ludacris—and Swag collaborator Dijon is playing his own Coachella set April 10.
Can I livestream Justin Bieber’s Coachella set?
Yes. Coachella will livestream major sets on YouTube, including Bieber’s on Saturday from 11:25pm to 12:55am; you can catch the main stage feed below.
What’s the rest of the Coachella 2026 schedule like?
You can check out the full festival schedule below, which also includes Sabrina Carpenter, Karol G, Anyma and Katseye—plus a surprise last-minute weekend one performance from Jack White.
