Nigerian Stars at 2025 Coachella

Rema, making his Coachella debut, continues his meteoric rise in the U.S. music scene. With Calm Down earning him the record for the most-streamed song and the highest-charting single by a Nigerian artist in the U.S., his performance is one of the most anticipated of the festival.
Tems, fresh from her stellar showing at the 2024 Coachella, where she wowed the crowd alongside Wizkid and Justin Bieber for their Essence (Remix) performance, will return to the stage.
Seun Kuti, a veteran of the Coachella stage, will make history as the first Nigerian artist to perform at the festival three times. His debut in 2012 marked the beginning of Nigerian representation at the world-renowned festival.

Star-studded lineup

Coachella 2025, scheduled for two weekends, April 11–13 and April 18–20, will feature headlining performances by global icons Lady Gaga, Post Malone, and Travis Scott. The festival, known for its vibrant blend of music and art, attracts thousands of fans each year and is regarded as a cultural melting pot for music enthusiasts.

This year’s Nigerian representation underscores the growing global appeal of Afrobeat and its ability to hold its own alongside mainstream international genres. Fans worldwide eagerly await the fusion of diverse sounds that Coachella has become synonymous with.
