The main stages are: Coachella Stage, Outdoor Theatre, Gobi Tent, Mojave Tent, and the Sahara Tent; a smaller Oasis Dome was used in 2006 and 2011, while a new Yuma stage was introduced in 2013.
According to a 2015 ranking by online ticket retailer viagogo, Coachella was the second-most in-demand concert ticket, trailing only the Tomorrowland festival.
2015 Set Times
The festival's origins trace back to a 1993 concert that Pearl Jam performed at the Empire Polo Club while boycotting venues controlled by Ticketmaster. The show validated the site's viability for hosting large events, leading to the inaugural Coachella Festival being held in October 1999 over two days. After a sojourn in 2000, the festival returned on an annual basis, beginning in April 2001 as a single-day event before reverting to the two-day format in 2002. The festival was expanded to a third day in 2007 and eventually a second weekend in 2012. Organizers began permitting spectators to camp on the grounds in 2003.

Impact and legacy
The success of Coachella in its early years proved music festivals
could work and succeed in a destination form, as opposed to a traveling
festival. The year of Coachella's debut was also the year of Woodstock '99, which was marred by riots, fires, and rapes, turning many people off of music festivals.
In the years following Coachella's success, many other festivals have
followed in its footsteps, copying its format as a destination festival
with multiple stages, attractions, art, and camping. Some of these new
festivals have grown to achieve the same success as Coachella, such as Lollapalooza in Chicago and Bonnaroo in Tennessee.

Features and surroundings
Camping
In 2003 Coachella started allowing tent camping as an option for festival lodging. The campground site is on a polo field adjacent to the venue grounds and has its own entrance on the south side of the venue. 2010 introduced many new features, such as re-entry from the campsite to the festival grounds, parking next to your tent, and recreational vehicle camping spots. For that festival, there were more than 17,000 campers. At the 2012 event, on-site facilities included recycling, a general store, showers, mobile phone charging stations and an internet cafe with free WiFi.Weather
The festival takes place in a desert setting as the city of Indio is a part of the California Desert. Temperatures during the festival's history have ranged from 107 °F (42 °C) on April 21, 2012 to 41 °F (5 °C) on April 14, 2012.Sustainability
Organizers of the Coachella festival manage its carbon footprint by
involving employees and attendees. The festival organizers promote
carpooling and reward people who participate: cars with four or more
people that display the word "carpoolchella" somewhere on their car may
be selected by a secret spotter to win VIP tickets/pass for life for
everyone in the car. In 2007, Coachella teamed up with Global
Inheritance to start a 10 for 1 recycling program, in which anyone who
collects ten empty water bottles receives a free one. In 2009, the
festival introduced ten dollar refillable water bottles, which
purchasers could refill at water stations inside the festival and within
the campgrounds.
