Coachella Announces 2018 Lineup With Beyoncé, Eminem, The Weeknd Headlining
A year after disappointing scores of fans because she just had to go and have twins, Beyoncé is back in the Coachella fold. The zeitgeisty California festival announced its complete lineup on Tuesday night and the Queen Bey is among the headliners, along with The Weeknd and Eminem. As usual, Coachella will be staged on consecutive three-day weekends in April, with identical lineups each weekend.
The Weeknd, appropriately, will kick things off on April 13 with a lineup that includes SZA, The War on Drugs, St. Vincent, Vince Staples and Bleachers. On April 14, Beyoncé will lead a bill featuring HAIM, Tyler the Creator, David Byrne, Alt-J, Fleet Foxes, Angel Olsen and First Aid Kit. On April 15, Eminem will top a bill featuring ODESZA, Portugal. the Man, Migos, Miguel, King Krule and Kamasi Washington. Each of the lineups will be repeated the following weekend.
None of last year’s headliners—Radiohead, Kendrick Lamar and Lady Gaga, who replaced the pregnant Beyoncé—are appearing this year.
The last decade has seen an explosion in the creative industry. While navigating the rapidly changing landscape, many creatives have to adapt to the gig economy; freelancing. Creatives are always doing something, going somewhere, or connecting with their audience. The cliche, “your network equals your net-worth”, is important when identifying the rooms and spaces that generate exciting authentic connections. Especially in the city that never sleeps.
