Today, the artists who will be performing on Do LaB‘s 2025 stage at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival has been announced. In the twenty years that Do LaB has been a part of Coachella, it has gone from being a small, experimental stage to an important part of the festival’s ecosystem and a leader in interactive music events.
The lineup for the Do Lab stage at Coachella 2025 includes: Anderson .Paak as DJ PEE .WEE igniting weekend one with his signature fusion of rhythmic electricity, the thunderous UK bass explosion of RUDIM3NTAL B2B Skepsis spanning both weekends, TOKiMONSTA’s boundary-shattering soundscapes transforming weekend two into a sonic dreamscape, Tycho’s hypnotic atmospheric DJ journey, the future-forward bass summit of Snakehips B2B What So Not, Detroit house legend MK performing an electric B2B with a yet-unnamed special guest, drag superstar Trixie Mattel reinventing herself behind the decks, the meteoric rise of electronic trio Levity, and the pulsating UK garage innovations of both Conducta and MPH across a transcendent 20th anniversary celebration.
For 20 years, the Do LaB has been the venue for some of Coachella’s most memorable events. The stage’s unique atmosphere makes it a great place for the world’s most famous artists and up-and-coming stars. Do LaB fans who are new to the band will remember how Billie Eilish shocked everyone with a surprise set last year. OG fans will remember seeing DJ sets from RÜFÜS DU SOL and ODESZA before they became stadium headliners.
All of these historic events were made possible by the brand’s famous “anything goes” attitude and rebellious spirit. This makes it the perfect place for the biggest names in electronic music to perform on the Polo Fields—from Skrillex to Bonobo, Richie Hawtin to Major Lazer—you never know who will show up.
