Stereogum — It has arrived. The Coachella Festival, America’s largest and most consequential live-music marathon, has announced the lineup for its 2025 edition, complete with a poster full of fascinating font-size politics. Coachella usually doesn’t unveil its lineup until January, but rumors have been swirling for weeks, and now the whole thing is here. Yesterday, Post Malone gave away the news that he’ll do Sunday night headliner duty. As TMZ reported earlier today, the bill also includes headliners Lady Gaga, Green Day, and Travis Scott. (Scott gets the same bottom-of-the-poster spot as No Doubt last year, and it’s billed as “Travis Scott designs the desert,” which looks goofy.) Contrary to previous reports, Fred again.. is not on this bill, but plenty of other people are. more info
