“Intentionally trading on the goodwill of Plaintiffs’ well-known COACHELLA festival, the Twenty-Nine Palms Band of Mission Indians, operating as Coachella Crossroads, LLC…is attempting to operate a directly competitive live music event,” reads the lawsuit.
What The Lawsuit SaysĪccording to Goldenvoice, the naming of the competing event will likely lead to confusion among consumers. The Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival is produced by Goldenvoice, which is owned by AEG, the largest music and sports entertainment company in the world, and the owner of the freshly re-named arena in downtown L.A. The federally-recognized tribe has a rich and lengthy history in the region. JFK Memorial Hospital has provided medical care to residents in the Coachella Valley since 1966. Additionally, it is produced by the Twenty-Nine Palms Band of Mission Indians.
COACHELLA DAY ONE 22 FULL
With upfront pricing for all Day One 22 tickets you see the full price. The event formerly known as “Coachella Day One 22” does, in fact, take place in the city of Coachella. All Day One 22 tickets are fully guaranteed and come without any service fees. The Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, almost always just referred to as “Coachella,” has sui generis name recognition.īut even cursory digging - or a question asked of someone who has spent any amount of time living in the Coachella Valley (holds up a massive LED sign pointing at self) - will reveal that “Coachella” does not, in fact, take place in the city of Coachella. Live Nation will now have to cease selling tickets on Ticketmaster and Blue Host will have to stop promoting the concert online.įor those without local context, this trademark infringement suit may seem pretty straightforward. The new event is set to be held just five miles away from Coachella’s location in Indio.
The decision grants a temporary restraining order in favor of the plaintiffs against Live Nation Entertainment and Blue Host, the companies selling tickets for the concert and hosting the event’s website, respectively. Coachella promoter Goldenvoice has sued Live Nation over an upcoming festival called Coachella Day One 22.
