Royel Otis leads a solid Australian contingent for Coachella 2026.

Announced Tuesday, Sept. 16, the rising Sydney duo take their positions on a bill that's headlined by Sabrina Carpenter, Karol G, Anyma, and Justin Bieber.

Royel Otis, whose breakout year included sold-out international tours and a high position on Rolling Stone AU/NZ’s countdown of the Best Australian Albums of the 2020s So Far list for PRATTS & PAIN, are poised to bring their popular anthems, and covers, to the California desert.

Meanwhile, electronic producer Ninajirachi will showcase her boundary-pushing soundscapes, continuing her rise as one of the country's most innovative dance artists. She has also had a huge couple of years, selling out her first American shows, touring with MGNA Crrrta, having a track appear in Fortnite, and more.

Genre-bending powerhouse Ecca Vandal, long celebrated for her electrifying live shows and mashup of pynk, hip hop, and electronic influences, will no doubt deliver on the stage. Earlier this year, she supported iconic nu-metal band Limp Bizkit's European tour. In Germany, Vandal was joined by the band's frontman to perform her single, “CRUISING TO SELF SOOTHE”.
