Festival fans, plan your weekend with the initial schedule for Coachella 2017

Three days ahead of the festival’s start date on April 14, Coachella has now released the schedule for this year’s first weekend of events, allowing would-be desert-goers to figure out their initial plan of attack. As noted by Pitchfork, folks with a diverse set of musical tastes will face the usual set of scheduling conflicts at this year’s fest, although it’s really only bad if you’re a fan of synthpop Brit rockers New Order, electronic wizards Justice, and celebrated rapper Kendrick Lamar. (All three of whom are playing in the same slot on Sunday night, with Lamar performing a headlining set.)

Coachella released the schedule via Twitter; you can click through the pictures in that tweet to see all three days of Weekend 1. Radiohead will headline on the opening night, while Lady Gaga (filling in for Beyoncé) will anchor Saturday. Most of the weekend’s concerts will be live-streaming online, so even if you’re not out in Indio yourself, you can use the new schedule to plan the rest of your week.
