The Coachella 2026 livestream returns with a multi-channel lineup for weekend 1, making it easy to enjoy the desert festival from your living room. If you plan to tune in remotely, think of this as Couchella — a home-friendly version of the event that runs across seven dedicated YouTube channels, each covering a different stage. This guide lays out the entire weekend 1 roster in Pacific Daylight Time (PDT), highlights the major headliners, and offers timing advice so you don’t miss the performances you care about.
Streaming begins on Friday, April 10, 2026, and runs through Sunday, April 12, 2026, with nightly rebroadcasts of the full lineup for viewers in other time zones. Note that some on-site set times differ from the channel feeds: always check the official livestream schedule in addition to the festival’s on-site lineup. For example, an artist listed on the festival grounds earlier in the day may not appear on the stream until the corresponding channel goes live later in the afternoon.
How the streams are organized and how to watch
Each of the seven channels mirrors a physical stage and streams in sequence throughout the day. The platforms to follow are the Coachella Stage (Main Stage), Outdoor Theatre, Sahara, Mojave, Gobi, Sonora, and Quasar. Three channels — Coachella Stage, Outdoor Theatre, and Sahara — stream in 4K for viewers who want higher resolution. After the live runs end, the channels typically rebroadcast the entire day starting around midnight, so if you miss a set you can often catch it later that night or the following morning.

Headliners and viewing tips
The three weekend headliners to prioritize are 9:05 PM PT Friday Sabrina Carpenter, 11:25 PM PT Saturday Justin Bieber, and 9:55 PM PT Sunday Karol G. If you want to optimize your at-home experience, pick the channels for the acts you most want to see and keep a second tab open on YouTube for any overlapping sets. Remember that each channel will generally replay the full day starting around midnight, which is useful if you miss a live appearance or want to watch the set again in full.
Finally, treat the rebroadcast windows as a safety net: the channels often loop the day from late night into morning so you can catch performances on your schedule. Bookmark the official Coachella YouTube hub and the individual stage channels to jump straight to the feed, and set reminders for the headline times listed above to avoid surprises.
