Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival has announced its 2026 line-up, with Japan represented by Fujii Kaze, Creepy Nuts, and ¥ØU$UK€ ¥UK1MAT$U across its two-weekend run in Indio, California, from April 10th–12th and 17th–19th.
Japan’s leading hip-hop duo Creepy Nuts are scheduled to perform on April 10th and 17th, joining the Friday line-up alongside The xx, Turnstile, Teddy Swims, Devo, Sexyy Red, and Central Cee. Fujii Kaze and experimental DJ ¥ØU$UK€ ¥UK1MAT$U will appear on April 11th and 18th, sharing the Saturday bill with Justin Bieber, The Strokes, Addison Rae, David Byrne, and PinkPantheress.
Fujii Kaze heads to Indio after a strong 2025 that included two sold-out nights at London’s O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire in July, his all-English third album ‘Prema’ released in September, and a North American run with stops at Lollapalooza, Outside Lands and Austin City Limits.

Creepy Nuts arrive at Coachella following a landmark year that saw ‘Bling-Bang-Bang-Born’ win Song of the Year at MUSIC AWARDS JAPAN, part of the duo’s nine-award sweep. February brought both their fourth album ‘LEGION’ and a sold-out Tokyo Dome show. They also became the first act to ever hold the top three positions on Billboard Japan’s Global Japan Songs Excluding Japan chart simultaneously, with latest single ‘Mirage’ at number one, followed by ‘Otonoke’ and ‘Bling-Bang-Bang-Born’. Before Coachella, the pair will embark on their first-ever Asia tour this autumn with dates in Seoul, Taipei, Hong Kong, Shanghai, and Beijing.
¥ØU$UK€ ¥UK1MAT$U continues a rapid international rise, from a multi-million-view 2025 Boiler Room set to a string of international tours and a headline show at Magazine London due on November 1st. A regular at forward-leaning club nights and festivals, his recent sets have drawn attention for adventurous selections and precision on the decks.
Additionally, South Korean group BIGBANG are also confirmed, performing as part of their 20th anniversary celebrations. Appearing on April 12th and 19th, their arrival ends the group’s long-awaited return to the festival after their originally planned Coachella debut in 2020 was cancelled due to the pandemic.
The headliners this year are Sabrina Carpenter (Fridays), Justin Bieber (Saturdays), and Karol G (Sundays), all taking on the top billing for the first time.
Other confirmed artists across the weekend include Nine Inch Noize, (an unannounced project expected to unite Nine Inch Nails with producer Boys Noize), Turnstile, Suicidal Tendencies, Hot Mulligan, Major Lazer, Laufey, Iggy Pop, FKA Twigs, Subtronics, and many more.
Tickets are on sale now, starting at $549 for general admission.
