Stagecoach 2024 Kicks Off in Indio: Here's the Lowdown

Yeehaw, partners! A whole mess of campers have moseyed on down to the Empire Polo Club today, getting ready for the 2024 Stagecoach Country Music Festival. This year's big names? None other than Eric Church, Miranda Lambert, and Morgan Wallen!

Folks with their RVs and tents started rolling in bright and early Thursday morning. They've got until 10 a.m. on Monday to pack up and head out, according to the festival folks. Just a heads-up, Avenue 52 between Monroe and Madison will be closed from 5 a.m. to 7 a.m. Thursday to let all the campers in.

If you're not camping, no worries! You can start parking your wagons in the general lot as early as 9 a.m. Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. The gates open at noon each day, and shuttles will be scootin' folks from local hotels starting at 11:30 a.m.

This here three-day hootenanny runs Friday to Sunday at the Empire Polo Club, located at 81800 51st Ave.

Mr. Eric Church will be kickin' things off Friday night, followed by a whole slew of talented folks like Jelly Roll, Elle King, Dwight Yoakam, Carin Leon, and Paul Cauthen.

Saturday, it's Miss Miranda Lambert's turn to take the stage. Joining her are some other big names like Post Malone, Willie Nelson, Leon Bridges, Ernest, and Charley Crockett.

And on Sunday, the party keeps going with Morgan Wallen headlining. You can also catch Hardy, Bailey Zimmerman, The Beach Boys, Megan Moroney, and Clint Black throughout the day.
