Coachella Line-Up Announced as Californian Festival Approaches

Coachella festival gears up for a double weekender packed with chart toppers and upcoming talent.



    LONDON, ENGLAND, February 19, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival line-up has now been confirmed, and with acts such as Radiohead, The Black Keys and Snoop Dogg, it's one of the most exciting events on the music calendar. The festival takes place in Indio, California, on the Empire Polo Grounds. Last year over 90,000 people attended each day of the festival, and this year's turnout is expected to be even greater. The event will span two weeks in April across two weekends, and there are plenty of special attractions that will be taking place alongside the musical acts.

Included in this year's line-up are:

- Radiohead
- The Black Keys
- Snoop Dogg
- Swedish House Mafia
- Kaskade
- Pulp
- Metronomy
- At the Drive-In
- Dr. Dre
- Justice

One of the major highlights of this event will be a live Friday night performance by the legendary Jimmy Cliff, Cat Power and a unique electronic act known internationally as M83. In conclusion to the Coachella Festival, on two Sunday nights, collaborative performances will be given by Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre. Since the demand for tickets is especially high this year, you will need to reserve your own as soon as possible.

Getting to California for the summer will also require some planning ahead, so be sure to look into flights to Los Angeles or Palm Springs, or you can fly to elsewhere to the US and book a domestic flight nearer to Indio, CA. For those not planning on staying for more than two full weeks, the cost of round-trip airfares are often more budget-friendly.

While Indio's size may be smaller when compared to the booming population of an urban locale like Los Angeles, this community actually hosts a vast array of hotel chains, resorts, restaurants and recreational activities that visitors will be able to enjoy during their stay. Whether you want to go clubbing, visit a local bar or take a tour of the city, accommodation are provided to satisfy each and every need.
