As we approach the end of the year, festival enthusiasts are buzzing with excitement for the highly anticipated Coachella 2025 lineup announcement. While music industry insiders are hinting at possible headliners, the full lineup remains under wraps. However, reports suggest that Fred again.. is almost certain to be a major headliner at this year’s festival.
According to HITS Daily Double, this rising star is expected to be prominently featured on Coachella’s lineup next year. Nevertheless, the rest of the main acts are still uncertain. Speculations are swirling about potential pop-country crossover artists like Jelly Roll, Morgan Wallen, or Post Malone making the cut.
Another intriguing factor is the identity of the sub-headliner special guest, a spot previously held by No Doubt and Calvin Harris. With Fred again.. being a frontrunner, there’s a possibility he may even headline the festival outright this time around.
Notably, two artists who will not be headlining Coachella in 2025 are Rihanna and Kendrick Lamar. Both have declined the opportunity due to other engagements—Lamar’s upcoming participation in the Super Bowl, while Rihanna’s overwhelming success as an artist and entrepreneur has made her less reliant on festival appearances.
