The Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival is a bucket-list trip for music fans, fashion lovers and adventure seekers alike. Held over two weekends in April, the festival is one of the best (and trendiest) live music events in the world. But even if you’re a die-hard festie, Coachella may not be your scene—especially because a single, general admission pass costs well over $400 for three days. Luckily, there are plenty of other U.S. music festivals rocking out year round for those of us who can’t (or won’t) make the trip to the Southern California desert.
