A screening for the long-awaited Season 3 premiere of the HBO series Euphoria will take place at Coachella.

Following the conclusion of the final performance on Sunday, April 12, the debut episode will begin playing at 11:59 p.m. PT at the Coachella Campgrounds. According to a media release from HBO Max, festival wristbands are required for entry to the outdoor screening under the stars, which will be available on a first-come, first-serve basis.

It will be the first TV series to screen at Coachella.

Before you head out to the annual music and arts festival later this month, make sure you cop some Coachella merch, including a t-shirt, hoodie, hat, and more, on Complex Shop.

Despite a four-year hiatus, it appears interest in Euphoria has not waned. Deadline reported on Thursday (April 2) that the second trailer, which can be seen below, became the most-watched trailer for a returning show in HBO and HBO Max history with 157 million views within 48 hours.

Details regarding the plot for Season 3 have been kept under wraps. Even cast members were kept in the dark.

Colman Domingo, who plays Ali, a recovering drug addict who serves as a sponsor for Zendaya’s character Rue, told Variety on the Golden Globes red carpet that he was only given scripts for his character.

According to Variety, Season 3 will leap five years ahead. Sydney Sweeney hinted at a time jump on Live with Kelly and Mark late last year, confirming the show would no longer be set in high school. “It would be a little weird at this point,” she said.

Sweeney teased a possible overarching theme in Season 3 on Good Morning America, saying, “The only thing I can say is, it’s about God. People are gonna find God, some people are gonna need God.”

Season 3 of Euphoria returns on April 12 at 9 p.m. on HBO. It can also be streamed on HBO Max.
