Coachella is quickly approaching! Starting on 10 April, and kicking off the 2015 festival season – Coachella is one of the biggest annual music festivals. All of the tickets have been sold out weeks ago and festival goers are starting to prepare themselves for a weekend of music, art, sun and fun in Indio, California.
As everyone prepares, it’d be a good thing to note what Coachella doesn’t allow during the festival. Just recently enforced, the latest and most heart breaking additions “no’s” to this list are selfie-sticks or any other photo taking attachment! Yes, that’s right – no Go Pro attachments either. Other festivals, like Lollapalooza are following suit. We’re kind of getting the vibe that festival organizers might want everyone to put the phones down, and just enjoy the show in the moment.
On a more exciting note, Coachella is expected to have performances from all types of artists, including: AC/DC, Alesso, Azealia Banks, Clean Bandit, David Guetta, Drake, FKA Twigs, Florence + The Machine, George Ezra, Hozier, Marina and the Diamonds and The Weeknd.
If you’re not sure what to wear or just want to channel Coachella vibes for the summer, we’ve got a list of all the essentials right here. Coachella basically has its own range of clothing – typical Coachella-esque wardrobe pieces include: a hat (floppy or not), fringe, crop tops, high waistlines, maxi length and wide legged bottoms, lace, tribal/aztec prints, chunky yet comfortable boots, some trainers you don’t care much about, sandals, airy and flowing materials and a great pair of sunglasses.
That’s all you need to know! Now take the 2015 festival season by storm.
