Coachella and Stagecoach are rolling back their COVID-19 requirements big-time. Both cite local—presumably Riverside County—guidelines in their verbiage. They did not issue formal press releases on the subject.
"In accordance with local guidelines, there will be no vaccination, testing or masking requirements at Coachella 2022," reads a brief statement on Coachella's website. The festival is slated for the weekends of 4/15-17 and 4/22-24.
Stagecoach, meanwhile, shared a festival-admission update on its socials that reads as follows: "As we prepare to spend an incredible weekend in the desert together, we are announcing that there will be no vaccination, testing or masking requirements at Stagecoach 2022, in accordance with local guidelines. Visit stagecoachfestival.com for more info." The country-leaning desert festival is scheduled for 4/29-5/1.
