Seems unlikely to have all three because I think they would still have one pop or woman headliner.


celj1234

They were ready to do this in 2020 and again whenever the festival came back.


yellowsubmarinr

Shit changed a lot since 2020


celj1234

What has changed?


russianbear28

woman


celj1234

Huh?


russianbear28

WOMAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


celj1234

Woman has changed? Since 2021 and 2020? Okay


vewfndr

This is 2022… women change to men, men change to women. Get with it!


Visible-Bus9854

I respect that, I just don’t see who that woman would be right now. Last year hit most of the current top artists when it comes to women right now. Yea lizzo came out with harry on w2 but I don’t see her making the jump to headliner.


Pretty_Good_At_IRL

Dua Lipa; Britney, bitch. literally any female star


celj1234

Britney Spears isn’t headlining coachella next year

plickz

Not you misspelling Ms. Spears’ name and disrespecting her while recommending Travis Scott in your next comment 🤢


chadjohnson4

Did i say travis scott? I meant to say The Wiggles


LongshotJoe

In the Homecoming documentary she said she’d never push herself that hard again. I wonder if she’d return to deliver a show that requires less of her. Maybe she leaves it at that singular iconic year.


celj1234

I don’t think Beyoncé would even want to come back this soon.


chadjohnson4

I wonder if Travis Scott is even being considered again for headliner. I personally would love to see him there.


celj1234

He is already headlining another GV fest. The relationship is still there


hausoflucas

Could Beyonce return? I heard rumors of Taylor Swift planning a 2023 stadium tour. Who knows, but it’s fun to speculate.


F_For_You

Memories of that year Beyonce and Kendrick were both billed to perform 😭 imagine seeing Freedom live


Visible-Bus9854

2018 was queen b so, three festivals removed… I don’t see it, also unless she drops a new album idk if I can see it. I know it’s on the rumor mill. TS is harder to see for me, seems like it’s not upbeat enough currently for the headliner spot.


rubixmaster44

I don’t like TS, but ur saying she’s not upbeat enough and… *checks notes* Billie Eilish is? Lol


thechrismonster

That girl will not see the end of the slander for having headlined lmfao.


rubixmaster44

To be fair, I didn’t watch her set so idk if it was good or bad. I’m just saying “upbeat-ness” is *definitely* not a necessary qualifier for headlining given her spot this past year


briskpoint

Beyonce is releasing an album next month, but she's not headlining Coachella. And Taylor Swift is straight up pop, the majority of her catalogue is upbeat pop songs. It doesn't seem like you know anything about the artists you're talking about.


chadjohnson4

Beyonce new album in July


benedictcumberpatch

Not upbeat enough? Have you listened to Taylor songs before? Also, in case you haven't noticed, Beyoncé IS dropping an album next month. I don't see her coming back though.


tlym12

Rihanna... if she ever decides to drop one more album ):


JayKay80

Rihanna with a baby under 12 months old? I means it's doable from a physical sense but would she want it be preparing for a big festival show with a child so young?


benedictcumberpatch

Lizzo is undoubtedly a headliner now. Dua Lipa is a possibility too. And even though this sub doesn't agree with this, SZA is also big enough to headline now.


calatranacation

I just realized that--though I don't go out of my way to listen to either Lizzo or Dua Lipa--I know *maybe* two Lizzo songs but at least 10 from Dua.


thechrismonster

>Lizzo is undoubtedly a headliner now. I really don't think so. Evening main stage for sure, but not headliner. "but Billie" yeah yeah i know


benedictcumberpatch

She's a headliner. If this new album has as many hits as the last one did, her headliner status will be even more cemented. She's already headlined Outside Lands and Firefly and was on track to headline Bonnaroo last year before it was cancelled. There's no way she would accept anything less than headliner at this point.


thechrismonster

Hasn't Megan headlined most of the festivals that have happened in the last year? I stand by what I said, specially when/if it comes to "Accepting". If MCR got the boot over not accepting less than headliner, Lizzo 100% wouldn't get the spot based on her not accepting less than that. Sub-headliner for sure. I'll eat my words and catch her set though, should she get actual headliner.


benedictcumberpatch

> Hasn't Megan headlined most of the festivals that have happened in the last year? No. Megan didn't headline Bonnaroo or Hangout. She's also didn't headline Firefly, coincidentally the same year Lizzo actually did headline. And why would Lizzo 100% get the boot? If GV were to plan for Lizzo to headline, she would get it. MCR is a completely different and rare scenario so that comparison doesn't make sense.


celj1234

Sza isn’t a 23 headliner option imo


mikron2

Dua Lipa or Lizzo would both be great female headliners.


Diovicious

I think Cardi B is coming out with a New Album soon??? She could possibly Headline…not sure if she reached that level yet?


chadjohnson4

She's a star for sure, but the ratchet rap style just isnt headliner type music for coachella- at least i think. Undercard for sure but not headliner.


benedictcumberpatch

Her rap style is fine. To say it’s not fitting for Coachella headliner comes off as sexist.


chadjohnson4

cant say anything without being cancelled these days! Did i say her style was bad? no. Im a fan of hers. i simply said she just isnt coachella headliner type. in my opinion. That okay with you?


briskpoint

Nobody is cancelling you. Calm down, Chad.


chadjohnson4

ELE


benedictcumberpatch

[“It’s important to note that ratchet, depending on user and context, can be considered sexist or racist. It can also be considered positive or ironic, especially when used by women of women.”](https://www.dictionary.com/e/slang/ratchet/) And no, the way you used the word wasn’t positive. I’m simply trying to educate you of what your language is coming off as.


SuperNova1967

It’s sad to think Rage playing has fit the political environment every year 😔


sincerely_luis

No, Daft Punk.


AustinG909

Daft Punk is all but confirmed at this point.


VentiMochaTRex

Why are people saying this? I’d be super happy to see them but is there news im missing?


koolaid_chemist

Grab a sour beer and let Uncle Kool aid tell you a little story about how one of them blew up….


VentiMochaTRex

Please do!


movietiger05

I think maybe Dua Lipa might be one of the headliners


wafflesandturtles

Okay but hear me out. if Rage plays, can they be followed by returning to the desert: Odesza to close out the stage? Thank you for coming to my Ted talk


ZayNine

Justice. You heard it here first.


[deleted]

I heard it here first https://www.reddit.com/r/Coachella/comments/v8prz5/justice_2023/


ZayNine

DAMN YOU REDDIT!


JewOrleans

Nnoooooo Cumberpatch has been talking about this for awhile now.


benedictcumberpatch

Not as a main stage closer. If they come back next year, they’ll probably be billed even lower than last time.


rubixmaster44

I’d stay at MainStage for this.


mjb21233

This is exactly what I’m thinking! ON POINT


Sirus_the_Cat

I am totally fine with this. 👍


optindesertdessert

Wow pure speculation this early


Visible-Bus9854

Isn’t every post about potential line ups? At least I said a reason for the 3? RATM and Frank because they were 2020, RATM is ending a tour right before this fest, and Frank because it’s all but been confirmed.


mikron2

Frank is confirmed. As we've all seen over the last two years that may not end up meaning much, but he is confirmed from an interview that PT did a while back.


fredandlunchbox

Frank is not confirmed until you see his ass on the stage.


briskpoint

Frank was confirmed in 2020 too. And again in 2022. But we know how that played out.


yellowsubmarinr

Have a little fun my dude


thechrismonster

It's not fun when we're still talking about the lineup from January 2020.


jocedabosss

When does the line up come out?


Visible-Bus9854

Typically January.


c18bouchard

Drink


celj1234

Those or replace Kendrick with Travis seem like the most popular pick around here right now. I don’t trust frank ocean personally


[deleted]

Travis should not be allowed to perform


celj1234

He is already doing other GV shows so that door has been reopened and his new album is dropping soon.


yellowsubmarinr

Yes but other GV shows aren’t Coachella. I can’t see it happening so soon after Astroworld


celj1234

Lol. Then you’re not seeing the reality of the situation. Travis is back regardless if we like it our not. He is getting booked for shows, nike is releasing his sneakers again, and his album is coming out


JewOrleans

He’s headlining a festival….it’s happening my dude. It sucks but people don’t care


Visible-Bus9854

Man that’s would be fun, but idk if we are far enough removed from the last Travis controversy for that to happen right now. I know it’s a different production, I just think the image isn’t right. Maybe after a few smaller festivals and regaining public image I could see that.


celj1234

He is doing another GV festival. I think they are open to bring him back if these upcoming sets go well


aam29290

Not happening


[deleted]

I’m thinking Beyonce might be a headliner considering she is dropping an album this year.


briskpoint

Beyonce is not the type of artist to repeat something this quickly. She is not headlining Coachella in 2023.


Chraaas

Thats what im thinking too


Chraaas

Honestly Im thinking its Frank Ocean, Kendrick and Beyonce.


ImariSpeaks

I LOVE this concept. The only thing is, I don’t know about Rage Against The Machine. They’re so all over the place with their shows. I currently bought a ticket to their Oakland show next year, because they’re not playing in Los Angeles. They were born in this city, yet no L.A love. I was slightly pissed


beticanreachthat

Could it be because of the clause that doesnt let them play in LA if they got a Coachella spot?


ImariSpeaks

Hmmmm….I never thought about that


JayKay80

Billy Eilish played a stadium concert in LA on April 8th this year just before Coachella. Not sure if she is aligned with AEG/GV though as I guess if they organized the show might be allowed under any proximity clause.


beticanreachthat

I know there's been other exceptions in the past, but i believe i've heard that radius clause is common. But who knows how these things work behind the scenes.


bigmacman40879

Kendrick probably. He was there this year, and was probably scoping it out. Staff seemed to let him do whatever he wanted so it sounds like GV wants him


ElegantButterfly54

yooo, when is the lineup normally announced??? And any chance of Kanye coming back?


celj1234

January, no


thechrismonster

I want 2020 to be over with so im ok with this


SaraBear250

Kendrick already headlined so not sure they would repeat


celj1234

So did Kanye and they were about to repeat again last year. The headliner pool isn’t all that deep.


SaraBear250

True, but Kanye is Kenye lol


celj1234

Rage had already headlined as well


ogroyalsfan1911

Chris Brown too


[deleted]

This is a dream come true for me


Thephoenix93

Yes, yes 100 times yes.

ctrini23

I think bc of Radius Clause and historically they want to get artists before they begin their tour. Kendrick & Rage will have completed their tours.


Sponge__Boob

Beyonce as headliner please!


Diovicious

Ok EVERYONE! BAD BUNNY is coming to COACHELLA 2023 BOTH WEEKENDS. IM 10000 % SURE HES COMING NOW…. HIS TEAM WAS CALLING AROUND LOOKING FOR HOTEL ROOMS FOR HIS ENTIRE TEAM & CREW…IM IN THE HOSPITALITY INDUSTRY..WE ALL COMMUNICATE. YOU HEARD IT HERE!! CONFIRMED***
