HEAD TRIP (Indio, CA, USA) 2026

Goldenvoice will stage HEAD TRIP at the Empire Polo Club in Indio on 10 and 11 October 2026, a two-day electronic event announced in March as a one-time occasion on the same desert grounds that host Coachella every April. The promoter has built the weekend around a single stage with no overlapping sets, so nobody has to pick between two headliners playing at once. Entry is restricted to over-18s, parking lots open at 1pm and the venue opens at 3pm on both days, with curfew set for 1am on the Saturday and midnight on the Sunday.

Calvin Harris tops the Saturday bill, joined by Under Construction, the joint project of FISHER and Chris Lake, plus Peggy Gou back to back with Four Tet and Seth Troxler back to back with Ben Sterling. Sunday belongs to Swedish House Mafia and Skrillex, with Dom Dolla back to back with KETTAMA, The Blessed Madonna and DJ Harvey filling out the day. Running across both dates, Floating Points brings the Sunflower Sound System to the United States for the first time, housed in its own structure away from the main stage.

Two-day general admission passes opened at $499 with all service fees included, while a general admission and shuttle bundle was listed at $559 and VIP at $899; the standard general admission tier has since sold out on the official site. Payment plans start at $99 down, car camping on site is priced under $50 a night and dedicated shuttle routes run to a drop off close to the gates. Tickets for the music festival are sold through AXS, and cars left in the lots after 2am will be towed.
