Post Malone is also set to headline the festival’s Sunday nights
More of the Coachella 2025 lineup is coming together. Rolling Stone can confirm that Green Day will join Post Malone as a festival headliner, and Travis Scott will perform during a special guest slot.
The rock band and rapper’s addition to the lineup comes a day after Rolling Stone confirmed that Malone would perform a “mind-blowing set” on the Sunday nights of the festival. (He teased the news on his Big Ass Stadium Tour poster earlier on Tuesday.)
Scott’s performance at the festival comes four years after he was set to headline the 2020 edition that was canceled due to Covid. According to Variety, he was then removed from the 2022 lineup following the Astroworld tragedy. Scott last performed at the fest in 2017 in a second-liner slot, headlining the Outdoor Theatre stage. He recently concluded a massive tour, Circus Maximus, for the album Utopia.
Post Malone last played at Coachella in 2018, closing out the Sahara tent that year. Green Day has never headlined the fest, although Billie Joe Armstrong made a special appearance with the Replacements in 2014.
Last year’s Coachella was headlined by Lana Del Rey, Tyler, the Creator, and Doja Cat. It featured several iconic moments throughout the weekend, including Will Smith performing with J Balvin, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce catching Bleachers’ and Ice Spice’s sets, and No Doubt reuniting after decades. It also marked the genesis of Chappell Roan and Sabrina Carpenter’s dominant year in music.
The 2023 edition festival featured Bad Bunny, Blackpink, and Frank Ocean, although Ocean was replaced for Weekend Two as Four Tet, Skrillex, and Fred Again took over the slot with a DJ set.
