Kelce spoke with PEOPLE about his potential plans to return to the music and arts festival in Indio, California this year. “I am a Coachella guy,” the NFL star said in April, about one week away from the event.“I love going to Coachella. I love live music in general. So you might see me pop up over there at some point,” he added. However, with the NFL season not too far away and a handful of additional responsibilities around his other endeavors, Kelce teased his plan wasn’t set in stone.
“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,” he explained.What has Taylor Swift said about attending Coachella?

Swift hasn’t publicly said anything about her Coachella plans this year, however, the lineup alone is a solid reason for her to attend — or potentially make a surprise appearance as a guest performer. Notably, one of the headliners is Lana Del Rey, who is a longtime friend and collaborator of the pop superstar.Most recently, Swift brought the “Summertime Sadness” singer on stage at the Grammys when she accepted the award for album of the year in early February, which featured Del Rey on the track “Snow on the Beach.” One week later, the duo was spotted together at the Super Bowl in Swift’s star-studded suite.Ice Spice, who also joined Swift in the Super Bowl suite, is also on the Coachella lineup. The rapper, who collaborated with the popstar on a remixed rendition of “Karma,” attended the festival last year — but this will mark her debut as a Coachella performer.
Joining Ice Spice and Del Rey on the Coachella lineup is Sabrina Carpenter, who opened for Swift during the Eras Tour. The pair have been enjoying time together off stage, too, including several dinner outings and trips to the zoo while they toured in Australia in March.Finally, Bleachers — featuring Jack Antonoff, a close friend and famed collaborator of Swift since first meeting in 2012 — rounds out the list of artists on the Coachella 2024 lineup who are famously in the popstar’s inner circle.
