Coachella Valley Residents Can Still Buy Passes to Sold-Out Stagecoach, Coachella Events

Coachella Valley residents can buy passes to the sold-out Coachella and Stagecoach music festivals next month, the festivals' organizer announced this week.

Residents from Palm Springs to Mecca can purchase two passes online with proof of residency, while supplies last. Passes are $375 for either weekend of Coachella and $249 for Stagecoach, according to organizer Goldenvoice.

Passes will be available 10 a.m. April 4 through April 10 for the first weekend of Coachella, which is April 11-13; 10 a.m. April 11 through April 17 for the second weekend of Coachella, scheduled April 18-20; and 10 a.m. April 18 through April 24 for Stagecoach, set for April 25-27. Goldenvoice typically offers tickets for locals after public sales end.

Passes purchased online can be picked up from the box office at Indian Wells Tennis Garden; they are non-transferable and proof of residency must be shown by a California driver's license or ID card. Festival attendees must be present because wristbands are placed on their wrists at pickup, according to Goldenvice.
