After back-to-back weekends of the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, with performances from a reunited No Doubt, Tyler, the Creator, Lana Del Rey and Doja Cat , sister event the Stagecoach Country Music Festival has rolled into Indio’s Empire Polo Club, in Indio, California.
Stagecoach, which will feature performances by Eric Church, Miranda Lambert, Morgan Wallen, Willie Nelson, Post Malone, Dwight Yoakam and others, has grown in popularity since it started in 2007. This year it sold out well in advance of the fest.
So if you’re wondering how Southern California’s two largest music festivals, compare, here’s a primer:
While the lineups are vastly different, there is one artist who is spending three consecutive weekends in Indio: Carin León, a Mexican music star
While Coachella is known for plenty of pulsing EDM beats, that has begun to transfer over to Stagecoach in recent years, Stagecoach has the Honkytonk dance tent, which started out as a place for traditional line dancing.
