We’re not the only ones who’ve never been able to get “Mooo!” out of our heads, right? But singer and rapper Doja Cat has come a long way since her days as a cow, infiltrating pop radio with her silky retro-futuristic bangers and becoming a mainstay of music festivals—including this year’s Coachella.
Before she steps on the stage, here’s everything you need to know about Doja Cat’s headlining set at Coachella this year.
When is Doja Cat playing at Coachella this year?
She’ll be performing on Sunday, April 14, during the fest’s first weekend, as well as on Sunday, April 21, during the second.
What time will she come on stage?
10:25pm on Sunday, according to the scheduled start time for the first weekend of the festival. Assume that could change slightly if there are any delays, and sometimes the second weekend’s start time gets shuffled around. Regardless, it’s worth mentioning that there’s a midnight curfew (that the festival has sometimes cruised past).
What will the setlist look like?
Of course, we don’t know the setlist in advance, but we can tap into setlist.fm as a pretty decent predictor. For starters, Doja Cat toured pretty extensively until the end of 2023 in support of last year’s Scarlet, so it’s likely that album will factor pretty heavily into her set. Her last Coachella performance was pretty packed with more than 20 songs, and we’d expect this longer headlining slot to have room for even more. As far as specific tracks, “Tia Tamera,” “Say So,” “Juicy,” “Need to Know” and “Kiss Me More” are among her most frequently performed songs.
Has Doja Cat ever played Coachella before?
Yes, and pretty recently. She had the second-to-last slot at the Coachella Stage on Sunday of the 2022 festival (which was itself a makeup of sorts for the canceled 2020 fest she was supposed to play). Tyga, Shonka Dukureh and Rico Nasty all shared the stage with her during that performance.
How can I stream Doja Cat’s set?
The live stream schedule for Sunday says that you’ll be able to watch her perform on the Coachella Stage feed below at 10:25pm.
What’s the rest of the weekend’s schedule like?
On the two main stages, Doja Cat will follow J Balvin and Jhené Aiko. She’ll be playing at the same time as BICEP in the Mojave tent, John Summit in the Sahara tent and ARTBAT in the Yuma tent. As for the rest of the lineup, Lana Del Rey headlines Friday of the fest while No Doubt and Tyler, the Creator top Sunday. You can check out the full festival schedule for the first weekend below.
