Coachella Tickets

Tickets for this year's festival were released back in January and, despite its premium price tag, were immediately sold out. Time reports that, as of this writing, there are still VIP tickets available for the second weekend.

VIP passes, which retails for $999, allows access to day parking lots, three VIP areas, and the GA camping areas.

Otherwise, the publication suggests looking for resale sites such as StubHub for available passes.

How To Watch Coachella 2018 At Home

For those who decided to avoid the crowd and the sweltering heat, Coachella 2018 will be streaming some performance online. The Mercury News says that the first weekend will be streamed on YouTube via three separate channels throughout the weekend. A fourth channel will offer a virtual reality experience of the festival.
