Then, on Sunday, the final day of the festival, hitting the stage before Frank Ocean, who hasn't dropped an album since 2016, are Kali Uchis, A Boogie, and Latto among others.
Coachella will take place at the Empire Polo Grounds in Indio, California, on the weekends of April 14-16 and April 21-23.

After two years of living in the pandemic, people are gearing up to travel for their summer vacations in 2022. Leigh Barnes, the chief customer officer for adventure tours company Intrepid Travel, joined Cheddar News to talk about the year’s top travel destinations and tips on how to prepare. Regarding COVID restrictions, Barnes discussed needing to do your own research to make sure you should be hitting a destination at all. "I think that the last thing is, making sure that where you're going is, the communities want you there. Because I think one of the things that we're seeing from possibly a Western lens is vaccine equity," he said. "We've got high vaccine rates across a lot of the Western nations. They may not have that same COVID normal that we're experiencing. So you've got to look for places that do want tourists to come in or ways that we can support vaccine equity."
