The Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival has been running since 1999. Today, it’s probably the most significant music festival in America. It features world-famous, established artists alongside up-and-coming acts, from a wide range of genres.

Coachella: Travel Details and Dates 

This year, Coachella is taking place over two consecutive weekends (April 14th 16th and 21st 23rd). Artists include Calvin Harris, Frank Ocean, Gorillaz, Björk, Bad Bunny, Blondie, Rosalía  and Blackpink.

This huge annual festival Coachella is held at Empire Polo Club in Indio, California, and there are shuttles to Los Angeles Airport. However, if you’re heading there to join in the fun, we recommend chartering a private jet to Coachella. Why? Let us explain.

Four Reasons to Book Private Flights to Coachella

Travel should be an enjoyable, comfortable and convenient part of any experience. By booking your Coachella flight via private jet rather than commercial, that’s almost guaranteed.

Fly More Directly to the Festival

If you travel via commercial airlines, your flight to Coachella can only be to and from the airports they serve. If you fly privately, you can access around ten times more airports than you can via commercial flights. This means you can often leave from an airport closer to home and land at an airport of your choice. This may be close to the Festival, your accommodation, or another area you want to explore. In turn, this can mean shorter, simpler transfers at both ends, usually saving time, stress and maybe even money.

When you book private flights to Coachella, there are several airports to choose from. The closest three, all within 20 miles, are:

Enjoy Comfort, Convenience and Safety

Warning: when you travel by private jet, Coachella may not be your favorite part of the weekend! As much as you may enjoy the bands, the art, and the atmosphere, the private flight facilities might make Coachella pale in comparison.

Imagine it:

No requirement to arrive hours early at your departure airport. No long queues to check-in or collect luggage. No crowds. No disagreeable fellow passengers.

Instead, expect private lounges. High-quality catering. Comfortable seats in a spacious cabin. Extra amenities tailored to your needs, such as bespoke menus, transfers and security services. There’s also the benefit of increased safety from Covid-19 and other viruses due to much less face-to-face contact, both at the airport and in flight. You may never want to fly commercial again!

Arrange Your Private Flight to Coachella to Fit Your Schedule—Not the Other Way Around

One of the main benefits of private jet charter is the ability to fly when you want. There’s no need to travel to Coachella—or any other event—hours or even days before you want to. Inconvenient or infrequent flights are only available commercially! Your private jet to Coachella can be booked to suit your plans. If you want to arrive a few days early or leave a few days late to explore the area—or catch another event—you can. 

Prefer to arrive just in time to see your favorite band?  That’s fine. Need to leave straight away afterwards, to fit Coachella into a tight schedule? No problem. You’re the boss.

Extend Your Stay: Book Private Flights to Coachella and Beyond 

Your private flight to Coachella could be just the start of your vacation. Private jet charter makes it easy to tailor your travel around your holiday wish-list. Staying as long as you want or having a two-center holiday is simple.

If you like country music, one great reason to extend your stay in Indio is the Stagecoach Music Festival. Held at the same venue as Coachella, this year it takes place April 28th – 30th. Acts include Luke Bryan, Kane Brown, Bryan Adams, Chris Stapleton and ZZ Top.
