Karol G gave fans another memorable headlining set on the final day of Coachella’s 2026 return to the desert, complete with surprise guests including Peso Pluma and Becky G.
The Grammy-winning Complex cover alum also brought out J Balvin and Ryan Castro during her performance on Sunday (April 19), not to mention tucked in a tour announcement. Both this performance and its weekend one counterpart stand as historic moments for Karol G, whose most recent album, Tropicoqueta, debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard 200 in June of last year.
“I am Carolina Giraldo from Medellin, Colombia,” she told weekend one attendees when underscoring the gravity of the moment, as previously reported. “And today, I am the first Latina woman to headline Coachella.”
The celebration, as seen in select clips below, continued for the second weekend, which again saw Karol G joined on the Indio lineup by fellow headliners Justin Bieber and Sabrina Carpenter.
Serving as the opening number of her set was “LATINA FOREVA,” a song off the aforementioned Tropicoqueta album, which was met with critical praise upon its release last year.
Coachella 2026 also welcomed Slayyyter, The Strokes, Sexyy Red, Dijon, Wet Leg, Young Thug, Addison Rae, Clipse, and more to its multiple stages across two surprises-filled weekends. As weathered attendees make their way back home, all eyes have now returned to 2027, with advance passes set to go on sale at the top of next month.
