Music. Art. Fashion. Fun. The Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival<\/a> returns to the Empire Polo Club in Indio, Calif., for its 25th anniversary, with a sold-out crowd for its twin weekends and millions of people watching the livestream from home.<\/p>\n

Our team is in the field to capture what it\u2019s really like to be at Coachella, from the biggest stars on stage to the only-at-the-festival vibes of the field. <\/p>\n

Sabrina Carpenter<\/a>, Justin Bieber<\/a> and Karol G<\/a> headline, but there are more than 100 acts on the bill, including the Nine Inch Nails<\/a> and Boys Noize collaboration Nine Inch Noize, girl groups including Katseye<\/a> and Bini<\/a>, rock royalty like Iggy Pop and David Byrne<\/a> and more.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ll be updating our gallery all weekend long with images of the performances, iconic art installations, the people, the fashion and more.<\/p>\n

If you want to see what Coachella used to look like, take a trip down memory lane with our gallery of photos going back to 1999<\/a>. <\/p>\n
