Karol G honors Latinos in Coachella headline performance: 'Feel proud'

  • On Sunday, April 12, 2026, Colombian reggaeton star Karol G became the first Latin woman to headline the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival at the Empire Polo Club in Indio.
  • Noting the festival has run for 27 years, the Medellin-born singer told the crowd she felt "very proud" to achieve this milestone, dedicating the performance to her Latina community.
  • Accompanied by special guests Mariah Angeliq and Becky G, Karol G performed on an elaborate two-story cavelike set with an all-female mariachi ensemble and reggaeton artist Wisin.
  • Fan Cristina Medina stated "Latina Foreva" represents "strength and pride in being Latino," while attendees visited a nearby flea market supporting Latino brands in solidarity.
  • This marks the second time in three months a Latin artist delivered a culturally rich performance on a major U.S. stage, following Bad Bunny's February Super Bowl halftime show.
