Coachella

I'm sure a lot of people are quite familiar with the music and art festival, Coachella. This annual event takes place in Indio, California since the early 1990's that started because of a protest against the Ticketmaster. Since then, the festival was liked by many so it was made an annual event. Many celebrities like Vanessa Hudgens, Kendall and Kylie Jenner, Nina Dobrev and many more that go quite frequently. This year Coachella will be Friday, Saturday, and Sunday April 10-12 and April 17-19. Tickets are very expensive, granted they're general admission and cost $375 per person.

At first when I saw how much the tickets were I was completely shocked.  I thought the tickets would only be like $100, no wonder a lot of celebrities go to this even. Who in the world would pay almost $400 for concert tickets? That can pay for a round-trip plane ticket to Florida (if planned months in advance). However I then looked at the list of performers and recognized many names and rethought about the price. Granted the tickets, I believe, are for the whole weekend. If that's the case, $400 is too low. Some people pay $50-$100 for just one of the artists on the list, like The Weeknd or Drake, however with $400 you can see both along with other really good artists and other different genres.

The image above shows the artists that are playing, as well as what days they are playing. The artists go from most well known, shown in bigger and bolder letters and as the popularity decreases, the size corresponds respectively. All the music artists that play at Coachella range in genres, there are some rap, hip-hop/pop, alternative, trap/

There are many great artists this year. Those like The Weeknd, Drake, Vic Mensa, Hozier, ODESZA, Brand New, Marina and the Diamonds and Kygo. Honestly going to Coachella is on my bucket list of things to do before I die. Spending the whole day, outside, in California and listening to a wide-range of music genres and looking at beautiful art with a great group of friends. Being able to dress in cute boho clothes with a flower headband and cute sunglasses, who would complain about that?
