The Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival changed its decision to require proof of a COVID-19 vaccine, allowing attendees to present proof of a negative coronavirus test taken within 72 hours of the event as an alternative.
“After seeing first-hand the low transmission data and successful implementation of safety protocols at our festivals recently, alongside the rising vaccination rate of eligible Americans, we feel confident that we can safely update our policy for Coachella,” event leaders posted to the Coachella website.
