If you’ve got some money kickin’ around this April, you may want to head to Indio, Calif., where Coachella is trying something new this year.
Instead of the usual one weekend show, which has been enormously successful (though incredibly busy), the festival announced it’ll be running the exact same lineup two weekends in a row: April 13-15 and April 20-22.
With a mix of some of music’s most legendary artists (Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre anyone), and a $285 weekend fee, you’ve got a week or so to decide whether you’re going.
Tickets go on sale 10 a.m. PT on Jan. 13 and last year it took a mere seven days for them to sell out.
Here’s hoping the second weekend makes for smaller crowds and better access.
