YouTube and Coachella share a unique ability to bring artists, creators, and fans into one space to create and celebrate culture. We’re honored to extend that sold-out festival experience to a global audience by livestreaming the incredible music and special moments to fans everywhere. Whether you’re hosting a watch party or tuning in on the go, this year’s Coachella on YouTube experience is more immersive than ever—tailored for however, and wherever, you want to watch.
The Ultimate Festival Upgrade: What’s New & Improved
● 7 Stages: This year we are livestreaming seven stages simultaneously. This includes the Quasar stage in both horizontal and vertical formats, with the vertical feed shot on Pixel.
● 4K Resolution: For the first time the Coachella Stage, Outdoor Theatre and Sahara will livestream in 4K, bringing the sets to life with extraordinary clarity for your big screen.
● Bringing Stations to Coachella: In addition to the festival livestream fans will have access to “Coachella TV,” a 24/7 interactive and uninterrupted music viewing experience featuring both iconic archival performances and 2026 festival highlights. The station will be updated with performance highlights following each weekend.
Multiview Living Room Experience: Last year, over half of Coachella’s total livestream watchtime came from the living room. With Multiview, fans don’t have to choose between their favorite sets. They can stream up to four stages at once on their TVs and effortlessly toggling between audio feeds for a custom festival experience from home.
● “Watch With” is Back: Our interactive “Watch With” series returns weekend two. Join Valkyrae for KATSEYE, vibe to KAROL G with Terry and Kaniyia, or dive into Fujii Kaze with Daniel Wall. It’s the ultimate watch party, shared with the creators you love.
● Virtual Merchandise Store: Shop like you’re at the festival and grab limited-edition merchandise through YouTube Shopping. This year fans can snag exclusive drops from BINI, Ethel Cain, Foster The People, KATSEYE, Laufey, The xx, Turnstile, Young Thug. Whether you’re on your phone, at your desk, or watching on the big screen, just click the shopping button or scan the QR code – and voila, your items will come to you!
