You don't need to be in the desert to catch the biggest moments from the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival this year.

The 2026 festival -- headlined by Justin Bieber, Sabrina Carpenter and KAROL G -- is officially sold out, but fans can still stream every major performance live from home.

Organizers have also released set times, helping fans plan which performances to watch in real time.

This weekend, music fans can watch Kacey Musgraves, who has been added to Coachella's second weekend lineup with a 3 p.m. PT set on April 18, a slot typically reserved for surprise acts.

As with previous years, multiple stages -- including the Coachella Stage, Outdoor Theatre and Mojave tent -- will feature back-to-back performances throughout the day and night.
