The official Instagram handle for Coachella 'hard launched' the lineup, crowning Sabrina Carpenter, Justin Bieber and Karol G as the headliners for Friday, Saturday and Sunday respectively. So that's 'man's best friend' Sabrina taking the stage on Fridays April 10 and 17, Justin 'SWAG' Bieber setting it on fire on Saturdays April 11 and April 18 and Karolina G sealing the deal with her Latina oomph on Sundays April 12 and April 19.

This year's Coachella headliners were Lady Gaga, Green Day and Post Malone, with many of the fan reactions over next year's names eliciting mixed reactions. While fresh names like KATSEYE and Big Bang got commenters rather excited, Sabrina Carpenter, owing to her polarising audience, got some mixed reactions, though her freshly dropped album, Man's Best Friend, has the internet bopping its heads. As far as Justin Bieber goes, everyone hailed the 'prince of pop's return to the stage with even Karol G receiving a warm response from her OG listeners.
