At Coachella 2026, the landscape itself becomes part of the lineup. This year’s art program unveils new immersive works by Dutch artist Sabine Marcelis, London architect Kyriakos Chatziparaskevas, and The Los Angeles Design Group ( LADG), ranging from glowing mazes to towering sculptural forms. The festival takes place across two weekends, April 10th to 12th and April 17th to 19th.

 

The 2026 art program is organized by Raffi Lehrer of large-scale art producers Public Art Company and Paul Clemente of Goldenvoice, a California music event operator. “What unites [the artworks] is a shared generosity; each piece is designed to be entered, sat beneath, wandered through, and genuinely felt. We’re curating for the body as much as the eye,” Lehrer said in a press statement. “The best festival art doesn’t just occupy space—it transforms it.”

 

Marcelis’s Maze (2026) is a labyrinth constructed out of inflated, curving arcs. The artist took inspiration from the surrounding Coachella Valley, imagining the maze like a mirage against the desert landscape. The artist and festival organizers will encourage guests to explore the maze, particularly at night, when the installation’s inflatable structures will glow.
