Each year after the Coachella crew clears out of the Empire Polo Club in Indio, Southern California’s most anticipated Country Music Festival comes in, with country music fans filling the festival grounds to see their favorite artists.
Stagecoach is a one-weekend event (Friday through Sunday) headlined by major country music artists, plus many unknown and up and coming artists in a variety of genres including folk, bluegrass, roots rock, americana, and alt country.
Stagecoach has consistently been a star-studded event with major artists like Jason Aldean, Carrie Underwood, Garth Brooks, Tim McGraw, Miranda Lambert, Taylor Swift, Brooks and Dunn, Luke Bryan, and George Strait all gracing the stages here.
In 2012, Stagecoach sold out for the first time with 55,000 in attendance. In 2018, there was a record 75,000 spectators.
Stagecoach is an all-ages event and kids 10 and under are free.
