Coachella Sideshows are like the festival’s cool, low-key cousins—smaller, more intimate shows happening in L.A. and surrounding areas while Coachella takes over the desert.
Think of them as a way to catch some of the lineup without committing to the full festival grind.
Big artists, surprise sets, and a totally different vibe than the massive main event.

Not everyone wants to spend three days in the heat, dodging influencers and fighting for a good view.
Sideshows give you killer performances in proper venues with better sound, actual air-conditioning (sometimes), and fewer distractions.
Plus, tickets are usually cheaper, and you don’t have to road-trip to the middle of nowhere.
You roll up to a club or theater, grab a drink (or an overpriced matcha if that’s the move), and suddenly, you’re watching an artist that just played a massive Coachella stage—only now, they’re right in front of you.

The energy is high, but the crowd is less chaotic, so it feels more like a real show than a social media flex.
Some sets get wild, some are more intimate, but either way, you’re in for something special.
