Pre-sale tickets to the 2018 Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival went on sale today.
I feel like I just got all of that sand and dirt out of my shoes!
I was logged on at 9am to the Coachella ticketing website and I was able to purchase tickets to weekend 2 by 11:04am…just four minutes after they went on sale. That was seriously record time as I’ve waited up to 40 minutes to purchase them before.
ALL weekend 1 tickets sold out in less than ONE HOUR which is insane. Tickets to weekend 2 sold out by 2:30pm. A 3-day GA pass is $429 – up $30 from this year. A VIP pass increased by $100 to $999. You can still purchase shuttle passes, camping passes and other add-ons HERE.
Let me know if you had any issues getting tickets today by commenting in the comments section.
Capacity was increased by 25,000 this year and you really felt it. For 2018, I hope that Goldenvoice re-designs stages like Sahara to accommodate the extra people as you couldn’t even enter it at times. That was my biggest gripe of 2017 – not enough room at stages.
I’m eagerly awaiting the return of the Antarctic experience by HP as well. That was the highlight of my Coachella. I’m also excited to see Beyoncé destroy the desert.
If you missed out on the pre-sale, your next chance will be during the regular on-sale date later this year or in early 2018.
Passes are already being sold out ticket re-sale sites like Stubhub for over $500! The Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival is set for April 10-13 and April 20-22 at the Empire Polo Club in Indio.
