As the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival prepares to take over the Empire Polo Club once again this April, one of its most unique destinations is officially set: Do LaB has unveiled its 2026 lineup, promising another year of boundary-pushing sound, immersive design, and unforgettable surprise moments.
Taking place across both festival weekends—April 10–12 and April 17–19—Do LaB continues its evolution as one of Coachella’s most vital creative forces. What began as a niche, experimental corner of the festival has transformed into a defining pillar of the Coachella experience, known for its renegade spirit and anything-can-happen energy.
Discovery and Iconic Moments
Do LaB’s reputation has been built on moments that feel both spontaneous and historic. Over the years, the stage has hosted surprise sets and intimate performances from artists like Billie Eilish, DJ Snake, and Anderson .Paak’s DJ PEE .WEE, while also serving as an early proving ground for now-global acts such as RÜFÜS DU SOL and ODESZA.
That duality—of showcasing both global stars and rising talent—remains at the core of the Do LaB ethos. It’s a place where genre lines blur, experimentation thrives, and audiences can stumble upon their new favorite artist without even trying.
Weekend One
Blending a dynamic mix of established names and emerging voices. Highlights include a DJ set from multi-platinum R&B innovator Tinashe, drum & bass heavyweight Andy C, and Italian techno standout Anfisa Letyago. Fans can also expect high-energy sets from OMNOM and Whethan, alongside Poolside’s signature Daytime Disco.
The lineup continues to dig deep into the global electronic underground, spotlighting artists like Starjunk 95, Deer Jade, MCR-T, and a new wave of fast-rising selectors including Omar+, FIFI, and Jackie Hollander.
Weekend Two
Shifting gears with a globally driven lineup led by tastemakers like Seth Troxler, SBTRKT, and The Brothers Macklovitch (A-Trak and Dave1). Acts like Eliza Rose, SARZ, Tourist, and Drama (DJ Set) further expand the sonic palette, blending house, R&B, and electronic influences.
A major highlight of the second weekend is its stacked series of back-to-back sets, including pairings like Ape Drums B2B Bontan and Level Up B2B Mary Droppinz—each promising spontaneous, high-energy collaborations that embody the Do LaB spirit.
The Magic of the Unexpected
Beyond its curated lineup, Do LaB’s most anticipated tradition remains its surprise special guests—announced day-by-day during each weekend. In 2025 alone, the stage hosted appearances from Mau P, Zeds Dead, and Bob Moses, continuing a legacy that has included names like Skrillex, Kaskade, SOFI TUKKER, and Major Lazer.
These surprise sets are more than just bonuses—they’re often the defining moments of the weekend, turning casual drop-ins into once-in-a-lifetime experiences.
A Glimpse Into Lightning in a Bottle
Do LaB’s Coachella presence also serves as a preview of what’s to come at its flagship festival, Lightning in a Bottle, returning Memorial Day Weekend (May 20–24) at Buena Vista Lake in Southern California.
The five-day immersive experience blends music, art, wellness, and sustainability, with a 2026 lineup featuring Empire of the Sun, Chase & Status, Zeds Dead, Tinashe, Maceo Plex, and many more. Beyond the music, attendees can explore interactive spaces like The Compass, movement workshops, and a wide range of community-driven programming.
From sun-soaked daytime disco sets to late-night surprise takeovers, Do LaB remains one of Coachella’s most essential experiences—where discovery, creativity, and community collide in the most unexpected ways.
