For years, Coachella has been one of the most prominent names within the music entertainment business. The festival is seen as one of the most elite on the calendar, and it is an event all artists and music lovers wish to come and see. However, the bar for attendance is high - and this means that it is not often that a K-pop group gets to take center stage.
In 2019, Blackpink made history when it became the first K-pop girl group to take part at Coachella. The show was such a hit that they received a request for return visits, with their infectious energy ensuring fans came away stoked. From fans of the group to people coming by the event by chance, Blackpink has done a huge amount to help promote K-Pop to a Coachella audience.
That ground-breaking success ensured that Blackpink became one of the most prominent names in the K-Pop scene. Not only was the performance an incredible success, but it has made it easier for the band to return. In the 2023 showpiece event, Blackpink will be back - and bigger than ever.
Blackpink is set to take center stage at Coachella 2023
Why? Because the band has been allowed to become a headline act for Coachella 2023. They will be among the main headliners alongside the likes of Frank Ocean and Bad Bunny. Bad Bunny, too, will become the first Latin artist to headline at Coachella. In a year of firsts, then, this looks set to be a transformative experience for all who attend the event.
Blackpink will helm the second day of fun at Coachella in 2023, and they will be joined by other major artists like Labrinth, Charlie XCX, 070 Shake, and Mura Masa. This is sure to create a highly energized second day, with the first day featuring the likes of Blondie, Becky G, and Yungblud. So, plenty of big names are coming along to Coachella - but for K-Pop fans, none are quite as prominent as Blackpink!
Since they first appeared on the scene in 2016, Blackpink has done a huge amount to help bring K-Pop to a wider audience. In 2022, they released Born Pink, their next album, and announced their second world tour. Being at Coachella will only help further to elevate the size and scale of their tour.
Given their 2019 performance was dubbed as "unforgettable" by the media, a return to Coachella has always been seen as a key part of their development as a group. They will be on-stage for one of the largest music festivals in the world, so it makes sense that, arguably, K-Pop's most popular band should be the headline act. As the genre continues to capture hearts worldwide, charismatic groups like Blackpink are a key reason why K-Pop continues to grow larger and larger-thinking of attending a Coachella concert to watch Blackpink live? Now you can do so. Tickets are available for purchase, so you can ensure you do not miss out on seeing one of the fastest-growing names in South Korean entertainment.
