Electronic music festivals are known for their spectacular shows, and the ferris wheel is one of the most iconic attractions. As Europe's largest electronic music festival, Coachella is no exception. Every year, the festival draws in hundreds of thousands of people to marvel at the dazzling lights and art installations, as well as to enjoy the wide range of popular and established musical acts, emerging and reunified acts. Founded in 1999, Coachella has become a bucket list festival for any music enthusiast.
Last year's event was attended by more than 400,000 people, and featured some of the best DJs and music producers in the world. The festival's origins can be traced back to a 1993 concert that Pearl Jam presented at the Empire Polo Club while boycotting Ticketmaster-controlled venues. In 2019, Beyoncé became the first African-American woman to headline the festival. Glastonbury is another one of the most famous and popular music festivals in the world.
