On the wide grounds of the Empire Polo Club in Indio, the announcement of head trip signals a new kind of fall gathering: a two-day electronic music festival planned for Oct. 10-11 at the same venue known for hosting Coachella and Stagecoach.
What is Head Trip, and where will it take place?
Goldenvoice, the organizer behind the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, Stagecoach Music Country Festival and Just Like Heaven, announced a new festival Tuesday that will feature a lineup of electronic music artists, slated for later this year in Indio.
head trip is described as a two-day festival set for Oct. 10-11 at the Empire Polo Club, located at 81-800 51st Avenue. The venue is the same site that plays host to Coachella and Stagecoach, placing the new event in familiar surroundings while shifting the focus to electronic music across both days.
Who is on the lineup for Head Trip?
The announced lineup splits by day. Artists set to perform during the first day include Calvin Harris, Fisher and Chris Lake, Peggy Gou back-to-back with Four Tet, and Seth Troxler back-to-back with Ben Sterling.
The second day lineup includes Swedish House Mafia, Skrillex, Dom Dolla back-to-back with Kettama, The Blessed Madonna and DJ Harvey.
The festival is framed as one-time-only in the provided headlines, with a roster built around major names and several back-to-back sets, signaling a program designed around shared billing and collaborative pairings rather than strictly separate solo appearances.
When do passes go on sale?
Passes are scheduled to go on sale Friday at 11 a. m. (ET). The announcement states that passes can be purchased through the festival’s website.
