UPDATE: April 13, 2024 at 2 p.m. ET— Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce skipped night one of Coachella 2024 for a sushi date in Los Angeles. Instead of heading to Indio, California, the pair were photographed at Sushi Park on April 12.
While the couple could still make it out this weekend, night one felt like the obvious choice. For one, the headliner was her close friend and collaborator Lana Del Rey, who was accompanied by Swift’s longtime producing partner Jack Antonoff. Swift also missed out on a performances by her Eras Tour opener (and Skims girlie) Sabrina Carpenter and close friend Suki Waterhouse.
There’s always weekend two, though Swift will probably be busy promoting The Tortured Poets Department, which drops on April 19. Of course, a surprise Coachella cameo would be a pretty good promo opportunity. Just saying.
Original Story:
If you weren’t already excited for Coachella 2024—featuring the grand reunion of No Doubt—the crowd could potentially get even more A-list than usual. Fans are wondering if Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are going after his latest interview.
“I am a Coachella guy,” the tight end told People in an interview published on April 3. “I love going to Coachella. I love live music in general. So you might see me pop up over there at some point.” Kelce has his own live music festival, the Kelce Jam, happening for the second time this coming May.
Coachella runs over two weekends in April starting April 12 and concluding on April 21 and features dozens of musical acts. “I’m not sure if I’ll go to a weekend, one or two, or if I even have time knowing my schedule’s filling up pretty quick before we get started back up for football here,” Kelce said. Swifties will note that the second weekend starts on April 19, the same day Taylor Swift drops The Tortured Poets Department, not that he necessarily needs to be on hand for that.
