Oh, Coachella. The superior music festival (or so they say). The time has come for the most epic two weekends of the year when celebrities, influencers, and us regular schmegular music lovers alike gather in the California desert of Palm Springs. The Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival hosts their first weekend April 14 to 16 and is followed up on April 21 to 23. Major names are written in bold this year (ehem Frank Ocean, Bad Bunny, and BlackPink), giving us no doubt that it will be another great celebration for the books. No ticket? No problem, you can live stream the performances. Attending on a budget? Also no problem. Coachella is offering multiple experiences free of charge. Here’s how to take advantage of your options.
Shoutout Technology AKA YouTube
Yep! You heard correctly. YouTube and Coachella have partnered up to give fans the opportunity to livestream the globally anticipated event for free. The streaming site will offer high-quality livestream content from the stage to behind-the-scene moments.
Check out the details on YouTube to start planning your at-home festival experience.

Carrera, the eyewear brand, has also partnered with Coachella to give a lucky someone a chance to experience the glamorous desert.
Named the official partner of Coachella, they will be the only featured eyewear brand on the festival grounds.
Take a trip to their website to enter yourself into the possibility of winning 4 VIP passes to weekend one of Coachella with airfare and lodging included.
The Coachella Haze
Well, more like the Desert Daze.
The Saguaro Palm Springs hotel creates a poolside oasis in the desert on April 15 from 12 noon to 4 PM PST with its own DJ lineup. The event is free [but just make sure to RSVP].
Get Artsy
By “artsy” we’re not talking about your next Instagram pose and aesthetic. We mean it quite literally actually. Coachella Art Studios is the festival’s “do it yourself” arts and crafts space to let your imagination run. They supply all of the materials you could ever need and it’s totally free.
But, just note, whatever you make, you must take.
Unwind, Recharge, and Feel Good Vibes At Coachella

So, no matter what you’re anticipating your Coachella experience to be, one thing you don’t have to stress is spending more money to make the most of your time there OR while streaming from home.
