ATARASHII GAKKO! Returns to Coachella in 2027

ATARASHII GAKKO! will perform at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in 2027. The group is set to play on April 9 and April 16, marking their second solo appearance at the festival.

This makes them the first Japanese female artist to perform at Coachella twice. Their first appearance was in 2024, where they closed the Gobi Stage on both weekends.

The 2027 lineup includes headliners Dua Lipa, SZA, and Tame Impala.

In a statement, the group said the memory of their 2024 performance is "seared" into them. "We had a hope that seemed impossible, but possible," they wrote. "We will dive into Coachella as a richer, fuller ATARASHII GAKKO!, having experienced a world tour and with our new album 'From Tokyo with Love.' We will break through the limits of our youth."

The group completed a world tour across 33 cities in 2024, playing for approximately 110,000 people. They also performed at Europe's Primavera Sound festival that year and at Lollapalooza Berlin in 2026.

Their first Latin America tour is scheduled for December 2026, with stops in Santiago, Chile; São Paulo, Brazil; and Mexico City, Mexico. They are currently on a five-city Zepp tour across Japan, titled "From AG! with Love."

The group's song "Otona Blue" has surpassed 3.3 billion plays on TikTok. They made their global debut in 2021 under the label 88rising.

Coachella 2027 takes place over two weekends: April 9-11 and April 16-18 in Indio, California.
