Coachella 2026 lineup: When does it start, when is Justin Bieber performing, how much is he being paid, what is their bag policy?
The likes of Sabrina Carpenter, Justin Bieber and Karol G are set to debut as headlines at Coachella 2026.
Coachella 2026 may not have started yet, but Justin Bieber has reportedly been seen rehearsing in the desert in preparation. One TikTok user shared a clip of Justin Bieber and wrote: “Part 1 Rehearsals check from my backyard🤯🤯 @Justin Bieber @Hailey Bieber #justinbieber #coachellajustinbieber #coachella2026 #coachellaweekend1.”
In response one TikTok user said: “Netflix should be live streaming his Coachella performance,” whilst another said: “He was also rehearsing (Favorite Girl, One Less Lonely Girl and Baby) 😭😭😭😭😭😭.”
Five days ago a Reddit user asked the question: How many of you guys are going just to see Bieber? And where are you coming from?
One Reddit user wrote: “He convinced me to get a ticket this year (Minnesota). I’ve wanted to see him live forever but never had the money (I am in my mid-30s). There are other artists I’ll be checking out but seeing his name made the $$ worth it.
“It’s similar to me as last year — I went because of Lady Gaga. The added shows of ed Sheeran, charli xcx, missy Elliott, the go-gos, etc were bonus :).”
Another Reddit user said: “I bought last minute tickets mainly for Bieber. I’m coming from Florida and figured this may be the only Coachella I ever go to and Bieber is in my top 3 artists I want to see live. And my expenses for this trip is around 20k including safari guest glamping.”
One other Reddit user wrote: “Yorkshire, England 🙌.”

According to the Coachella website, “A medium backpack should be no bigger than 18”x13”x8.5” when fully packed. Bags will have to fit into a box of that size, similar to the system used to check the size of carry-on luggage at airports. If the bag doesn’t fit in the box, you won’t be allowed inside the venue.”
