Despite being smack dab in the middle of the 2010 Festival Season, some folks are looking ahead to next year including the producers of the Coachella Festival. Golden Voice has announced that Coachella 2011 will take place in Indio on April 15-17. How will they top last year’s impressive offering that was the best-attended version of the event yet? You’ll have to wait a few months for the lineup to surface.
We expect rumors about the bill to start pretty quickly.
