Coachella to return in 2022

Popular music festival Coachella will return in 2022 after being postponed four times due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The music festival, which draws people from around the globe, was first moved from April 2020 to October 2020 before being cancelled. New dates were then set for April 2021, but in January 2021, the announcement came that the festival would have to be pushed back once again.

While some reports stated that the 2021 edition would take place in October, organisers did not confirm this news.

But now, they have confirmed dates for 2022. "See you in the desert. Coachella returns April 15-17 & 22-24, 2022," a post on the official Coachella Instagram account reads.

According toVariety, YouTube will once again be the official streaming partner for the event. 

"We're back and thrilled to be partnering with Goldenvoice for the 10th year to live stream the iconic Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival on YouTube," the company said in a statement. "As the world's biggest virtual stage, we are more excited than ever to celebrate live music and to bring two weekends of extraordinary performances to music fans around the world."

The line-up for the 2021 show has not yet been revealed.
