Goldenvoice sets Head Trip Festival for Oct. 10-11 in Indio
Goldenvoice, the organizer behind the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, Stagecoach Music Country Festival, and Just Like Heaven, announced the new festival on Tuesday, describing it as a lineup of electronic music artists planned for later this year in Indio.
The two-day event will take place at the Empire Polo Club, located at 81-800 51st Avenue. Goldenvoice positioned the announcement as a distinct, standalone festival, adding another major live music date to the venue’s annual schedule.
Lineup details: Calvin Harris, Swedish House Mafia, Skrillex lead
Goldenvoice outlined a split lineup across both days, with day one featuring Calvin Harris, Fisher and Chris Lake, Peggy Gou back-to-back with Four Tet, and Seth Troxler back-to-back with Ben Sterling.
Day two will include Swedish House Mafia, Skrillex, Dom Dolla back-to-back with Kettama, The Blessed Madonna, and DJ Harvey.
While Goldenvoice did not add further operational details in its Tuesday announcement, the bill places multiple top-billed electronic acts across both days, anchored by several back-to-back sets.
