Those who attended it seem to remember it wistfully as the “best kept secret” and it was a far more intimate affair, spread as it was across just two consecutive days and with a peak attendance of around 33 000 people.
While by no means truly underground the 2003 acts were definitely…alternative…when compared to today and had you been there you would have seen the likes of the White Stripes, the Mars Volta, Queens of the Stone Age and N*E*R*D right before they truly exploded onto the scene…
The following year the secret was out and Coachella attendance doubled and by 2006 it had cemented its place as one of the biggest and most financially successful music festivals in the world…
The 2023 event for example was spread across two weekends, with 200 acts including some of the biggest names in pop culture, multi-million dollar sponsorship deals and 125 000 people attending daily including some of the wealthiest people in the world.
