American Express has been a sponsor of Coachella for several years now offering benefits to card holders at one of the US’s most prestigious festivals and they just announced the perks for 2023.
First up are expedited merch lanes. Those who have been to Coachella understand how vital this perk is as many attendees want exclusive clothing, posters, or items as collectibles and a physical memory.
From 4PM to 6PM every day, Amex Card holders can show their card to enter a dedicated member fast lane, speeding up the process and getting back to the music faster.
Next up is the Y2K Amex Experience, often known as the Amex Lounge. The lounge is open from 12PM to 8PM daily and card holders can even bring up to three friends to take group aesthetic photos.
Card holders can also take a complimentary Ferris wheel ride. No trip to Coachella is complete without riding the Ferris wheel up to the top and taking in the breathtaking views of Coachella Valley and all the incredible art and stages. Amex holders can ride free one time in 2023.
Last is the Kimpton Merch pop-up at the Kimpton Hotel in Palm Springs. The pop-up will be open Thursday from 3-7PM and Monday from 9-12PM and the Amex card must be used for purchases made here.
Card holders will get access to merch outside of the festival, potentially avoiding missing sets and snagging sold out pieces.
Eligible card members can also enroll in a one-time $10 statement credit after spending $50 or more at the festival at participating on-site merchants.
