NCT 127 and NCT DREAM Confirmed for Coachella 2027, With a Joint Stage

NCT 127 and NCT DREAM will both perform at the 2027 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, SM Entertainment said on Nov. 12, putting the two NCT units on April 10 and April 17 in Indio, California, Newsis reported.

The announcement settles what the festival's lineup poster left open. That poster, released Nov. 10, listed only the name "NCT," and fans worldwide took notice, trying to work out which units it meant. SM then made the joint appearance and the collaboration stage official, Newsis reported.

Both units perform on their own first. NCT 127 and NCT DREAM will each deliver a solo setlist, then join forces for a special joint stage under the single NCT brand, according to the agency.

NCT is the only K-pop boy group on the 2027 lineup, and the booking is a first Coachella appearance for both NCT 127 and NCT DREAM.

NCT 127 comes in with chart history behind it. Its seventh full-length album, BLINGY, released Aug. 24, marked the group's 11th entry on the Billboard 200, and the unit is currently on its fifth world tour, NEO CITY : THE REDLINE, Newsis reported.

NCT DREAM is marking its 10th debut anniversary this year. Its sixth full-length album, DREAM AFTER DREAM, released Nov. 9, topped major domestic album and music charts and also reached No. 1 on major Chinese music platforms, according to Newsis.
