ANAHEIM, Calif. — The lineup for the 2023 edition of the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival arrived Tuesday, and with headliners Bad Bunny, Blackpink and Frank Ocean at the top of the bill it’s clear the global drift of Coachella in recent years is here to stay.
Puerto Rican rapper-singer Bad Bunny, whose “Un Verano Sin Ti” held No. 1 on the Billboard charts for 13 weeks and was the top-selling album of 2022, becomes the first Latin artist to headline at Coachella when he plays both Fridays in April.
K-pop girl group Blackpink, who in 2019 packed the Sahara Tent at Coachella when they became the first K-pop act to play the festival, now return as the first K-pop headliners. They play Saturdays both weekends.
