mostra di più- Founded by Paul Tollett and Rick Van Santen, Coachella initially aimed to be a one-off "anti-Woodstock" event, focusing on alternative rock and affordability.
- Low attendance at the first festival led to cancellation in 2000, but it returned in 2001 as a single-day success story with headliners like Jane's Addiction and Weezer.
- The festival expanded to two days in 2002, attracting big names like Radiohead and Beck. By 2004, it stretched to three days, solidifying its status as a major music event.
- Iconic performances like Radiohead's 2006 headlining set and Prince's surprise 2007 appearance cemented Coachella's legendary status.
- The global financial crisis affected attendance in 2008, but Coachella bounced back with diverse lineups featuring The Killers, Muse, and AC/DC.

- Art installations became increasingly elaborate, creating an immersive "festival within a festival" experience.
- Sustainability efforts gained traction, with Coachella aiming to become a carbon-neutral event by 2030.

- Livestreaming and on-demand content allow global audiences to experience Coachella virtually, expanding its reach beyond the desert.
- The festival's commitment to diverse lineups and social responsibility paves the way for a future that reflects the evolving cultural landscape.
- Highs: Beyoncé's electrifying 2018 headlining set, Radiohead's 2006 masterclass performance, Prince's surprise 2007 appearance, the rise of art installations, and the festival's dedication to sustainability.
