Diljit Dosanjh to return to Coachella 2027 lineup alongside Dua Lipa, SZA

Punjabi singer-actor Diljit Dosanjh is set to return to the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in 2027, joining an international line-up featuring Dua Lipa, Tame Impala, SZA and Madonna.

The singer’s verified Instagram account, @teamdiljitglobal, shared the festival poster on Wednesday with the caption, “COACHELLA 2027 MAIN STAGE 😈 Coming Back Stronger ❤️”, signalling his return to the California music festival.

Dosanjh made his Coachella debut in April 2023, becoming the first Punjabi artist to perform at the festival. He took the stage at the Sahara Tent on April 15 during the opening weekend, with the festival’s official YouTube channel later sharing his performance of ‘G.O.A.T.’. His set brought Punjabi music to one of the world’s best-known music festivals.

According to the festival poster, Diljit is listed among the performers for Friday, April 9 and April 16, the opening day of both festival weekends. His team has described the appearance as a main-stage comeback.

Coachella 2027 will be held on April 9-11 and April 16-18 at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, California. The dates and venue are listed on the festival promoter Goldenvoice’s official website.

The 2027 line-up features Dua Lipa, Tame Impala and SZA as the three headline acts across the festival’s Friday, Saturday and Sunday programmes, respectively. Madonna is also billed for the Dance Tent, while Daddy Yankee has a special “In the Desert” billing.

Other performers on the roster include JISOO, Zara Larsson, Steve Lacy, Peggy Gou, Kehlani, Phoebe Bridgers, Weezer, Martin Garrix, Robyn, Don Toliver and BABYMONSTER.

Diljit’s return marks another international milestone for the Punjabi music star, who has taken Punjabi music to major global stages and expanded its audience beyond the Indian diaspora.

The festival’s official website lists the two-weekend schedule, while its YouTube partnership announcement confirms that the performances will be streamed globally on the platform.
