DJ Snake has officially pulled back the curtain on the lineup for his highly anticipated Pardon My French takeover at Coachella 2026. Set to dominate the Quasar Stage on Saturday, April 18, the showcase promises to be a landmark event for electronic music enthusiasts.
The announcement follows a prolific season for the French powerhouse, who recently commanded attention during Miami Music Week and Ultra Music Festival. His Miami showcase featured a diverse array of talent, while his Ultra main stage closing set—complete with unreleased IDs and surprise appearances by J Balvin and Ryan Castro—solidified his status as a premier festival headliner.
A Historic Collision of Trap Titans
The centerpiece of the Coachella lineup is a monumental first: a back-to-back performance between RL Grime and Flosstradamus. Both artists were instrumental in the explosion of the 2013 edm trap movement, yet they have never shared a stage for a collaborative set until now. This historic pairing will culminate in a B2B2B session with DJ Snake himself, marking a full-circle moment for the genre.
The lineup further bridges the gap between eras by pairing DJ Snake with Knock2. As one of the most explosive names in the new generation of bass music, Knock2’s inclusion highlights DJ Snake’s commitment to championing fresh talent. The roster is rounded out by a DJ set from the visionary Madeon and an opening performance by Devault, who has spent the last 10 Years evolving into a formidable force in the melodic and dark house spaces.
Official Set Times for Quasar Stage
Fans planning their Saturday at the Polo Fields can expect a continuous flow of high-energy performances. The official schedule for the Pardon My French takeover is as follows:
- Devault: 5:00 PM – 7:00 PM
- Madeon (DJ Set): 7:00 PM – 8:15 PM
- DJ Snake B2B RL Grime B2B Flosstradamus: 8:15 PM – 9:45 PM
- DJ Snake B2B Knock2: 9:45 PM – 11:00 PM
DJ Snake’s influence continues to permeate global culture, far exceeding the boundaries of the dance floor. With a resume that includes collaborations with Justin Bieber, Cardi B, and LISA of BLACKPINK, and the critical success of his 2025 album Nomad, he remains a pivotal figure in modern music. This Coachella takeover is not just a performance; it is a celebration of the "Pardon My French" legacy and the future of the trap and bass scenes.
