Davido, the global Afrobeats superstar, is set to make his debut at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in 2026, marking a significant milestone for Nigerian music on the world stage. The announcement, according to laweekly.com, came as part of a pop and electronic-heavy lineup that includes headliners Sabrina Carpenter, Justin Bieber and Karol G.
While the festival is known for its diverse musical offerings, including a robust electronic dance music and rock presence, the inclusion of Davido stands out. The artiste is a lone Nigerian act on a bill that features other notable R&B and hip-hop stars like Young Thug, Clipse and Sexyy Red. His performance promises to bring the infectious energy and sound of Afrobeats to the iconic desert stage.
Davido’s presence at one of the world’s most popular music festivals further cements the genre’s growing influence and global appeal. Fans eager to catch his highly anticipated debut, along with other top acts, can secure passes when tickets go on sale this Friday.
