Post Malone Seemingly Confirms He’s Headlining Coachella

Updated: Nov 21, 2024


Post Malone has announced a 2025 North American stadium tour that will feature support from fellow country music stars Jelly Roll and Sierra Ferrell. The tour, called the Big Ass Stadium Tour, will begin in Malone’s adopted hometown of Salt Lake City, Utah, and wrap up, on July 1, in San Francisco. He also revealed that he will be headlining Coachella.



Post Malone appeared to let the cat out of the bag about two of his biggest 2025 tour dates. In an Instagram post announcing his most ambitious outing to date — next year’s Big Ass Stadium Tour with Jelly Roll — Malone also included a pair of shows on April 13 and 20 in Indio, CA.


That happens to be the same city that hosts the Coachella Festival and those dates coincide with the two weekends that the festival is booked for next year. At press time neither spokespeople for Malone nor Coachella had answered Billboard‘s request for confirmation of the booking.


Coachella has not yet announced the lineup for next year’s show, one of the most anticipated reveals on the concert calendar. Organizers of the two-weekend event have confirmed that it will take place from April 11-13 and April 18-20. In another twist, the official press release announcing Malone’s Big Ass stadium tour did not include the two Indio dates. Malone’s version also noted that neither Jelly Roll nor the Big Ass tour’s other opening act, Sierra Ferrell, will be joining him in Indio.


Malone and Jelly Roll’s 25-date spring/summer run of shows in baseball/football stadiums is slated to kick off on April 29 at Rice-Eccles Stadium in Salt Lake City, within weeks of the apparent Coachella performances. The Live Nation-produced North American tour — Posty’s biggest headlining run to date — will also hit Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas and the Alamodome in San Antonio, before moving on to Dallas, Atlanta, St. Louis, Detroit, Minneapolis, Chicago, Philadelphia, Toronto, New York, Miami, Denver, and Portland before winding down on July 1 at Oracle Park in San Francisco.




It's also being reported that Lady Gaga, Green Day, and Travis Scott are also headlining Coachella. Honestly, you can pay it with Post Malone.


He may be loved by the Country music community, but I don't think he's the right fit for the pretentious, wannabe-hipster Coachella crowd.


As for the other rumored headliners, Green Day are great live performers, and Gaga can use Coachella to give fans a taste of what to expect from the LG7 live era.


Travis Scott I feel is a controversial choice, especially when 10 people died at his Astroworld festival.


UPDATE: Here's the full list of performers who will be taking the stage at Coachella 2025
