Overview
- YouTube announced it will stream both Coachella weekends on the festival’s YouTube channel, with reminders now open and a companion app that builds a personal schedule using Google Gemini.
- Coverage expands to seven simultaneous stage feeds, including a Quasar stream in horizontal and a new vertical view shot on Google Pixel, plus first-time 4K for the Coachella Stage, Outdoor Theatre and Sahara.
- A Multiview option on TVs lets fans watch up to four stages at once and switch which performance they hear, a setup built for couch viewing after last year’s watch time skewed to the big screen.
- Programming stretches beyond live sets through Coachella TV, a 24/7 channel with archival shows and fresh highlights after each weekend, and weekend-two creator watch parties with Valkyrae, Terry and Kaniyia, and Daniel Wall.
- A virtual merch store on YouTube Shopping brings limited drops from artists such as The xx, Young Thug, Laufey and KATSEYE, with brand partners varying by weekend and region, including NYX Professional Makeup, T-Mobile, Coach, Tide Evo and Falabella.
