How many people are at Coachella 2022?

The desert festival, which takes place at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, California, draws in crowds of around 125,000 per day.

That means that around 750,000 people attend the festival in total over the six days.

In March 2016, the Indio City Council agreed to raise the Coachella attendance cap from 99,000 to 125,000 per day.

As reported by Desert Sun, festival promoter Goldenvoice submitted a proposal to Indio officials asking them to raise the attendance cap which was approved by council in a 3-0 vote.

This meant that from 2016, the festival could increase the number of tickets it sold.

Mayor Glenn Miller told Desert Sun that the change wouldn’t “have too much affect”. However, the venue size did have to be increased by 50 acres to accommodate the extra 150,000 guests over the two weekends.
