Coachella cancelled their 2021 festival this year, and turned their focus on holding the festival in 2022. Co-founder Paul Tollett has divulged to the Los Angeles Times that Rage Against The Machine and Travis Scott (both of whom were supposed to headline in 2020) would top the 2022 bill, with a third headliner to be announced at a later date. Frank Ocean is slated to headline in 2023.
“Right now, it’s the Wild West,” said Tollett. “I’m just trying to be as fair as I can to artists and to the fans to make sure that eventually they get to see everyone that we talked about.” With COVID surging this summer, Tollett assured that safety is their number one priority. “We’re monitoring everything,” he said. “I don’t want to put anything in cement right now, because I just don’t know.”
Coachella will be just one part of Rage Against The Machine’s highly anticipated reunion tour.
