Coachella 2027 puts Madonna in the Dance Tent

Coachella has revealed its 2027 lineup, and Madonna is billed "In the Dance Tent." She plays Friday, the first name under headliner Dua Lipa. Tame Impala headline Saturday and SZA headlines Sunday, across two weekends at the Empire Polo Club in Indio: April 9 to 11 and April 16 to 18.

Her first Coachella set, in 2006, was in the dance tent too, and it overflowed. When she joined Sabrina Carpenter's Friday headline set this April, Madonna told the crowd that 20 years earlier she had been "in the dance tent," playing her Confessions on a Dance Floor songs in America for the first time.

She shared the 2027 poster on Instagram behind a Confessions II image that reads "Meet me in the Dance Tent!" Her new album, Confessions II, came out in July as the sequel to that 2005 record, and one of its tracks, "Bizarre," is a collaboration with Martin Garrix.

Garrix plays Saturday, his first Coachella since 2017, five weeks after his own album, Marty, is due out. Underworld, who played the very first Coachella in 1999, are on the same day.

Saturday has the most dance names on our list, including Tiësto, Solomun, Charlotte de Witte and Cloonee. On Sunday, Amelie Lens and Sara Landry are billed together, and Boris Brejcha plays a year before his farewell run in 2028.

The poster doesn't sort acts by genre, so these lists are our pick of the DJs and dance acts on each day. Each day's acts play both weekends.
