Coachella just rolled out its much-anticipated 2018 lineup, with headliners The Weeknd, Beyoncé and Eminem topping a lineup heavy on urban music genres. 

Presented by Goldenvoice, the annual Southern California festival returns to the Empire Polo Club in Indio April 13-15 and April 20-22, with the same list of acts playing each weekend.

 

Beyoncé was supposed to headline the 2017 festival but had to back out of the gig, being replaced by Lady Gaga, after finding out she was pregnant. Queen Bey will make up for the cancellation by headlining Saturday. She previously took the stage in 2014 as a surprise appearance during her sister Solange’s performance.

The Weekend, who played Coachella in 2012 and 2015, headlines Friday night, April 13 & 20. 

Eminem wraps up both weekends, April 5 & 20. He previously made a guest appearance in 2012. The rapper is expected to announce more performances soon. Hip-hop power agent Cara Lewis recently told Pollstar that Eminem will be touring select dates, including his first U.S. gigs since 2014. 

The lineup also boats include SZA, HAIM, Odesza, Kygo, Tyler, The Creator, Portugal. The Man, St. Vincent, David Byrne, Migos, The War On Drugs, alt-J, A Perfect Circle, Vince Staples, Post Malone, Cardi B, Miguel and many more.
