Coachella Recap 2026

Ben Shapiro· Host0:00

All righty, folks. So I don't care about Coachella, but you, the people, do. I've been informed by my producers. And so as per our usual annual arrangement, they're going to torture me with details about Coachella, which I will then analyze and break down for you, for your viewing enjoyment.

[upbeat music] All right. So first, Ben, I wanna talk about people are going absolutely broke going to Coachella. So first of all, I'm assuming your advice would be to not go.

Ben Shapiro· Host0:29

Yes, that is my advice. [laughs] You, you, you nailed it. Right on, right on the money. [laughs] If you don't have the money to do things, you probably should not do those things. [upbeat music] And, you know, you can Fyre Festival this thing, I suppose. What is it? General admission is $799? That's a... That, that's general? I mean, it seems like if, if you're wasting that much money, you may as well get the VIP admission, right? Like, VIP's 1,300 bucks. So I feel like if you're already broke, you may as well be dead ass broke.

[upbeat music] And there's whole videos on TikTok on the internet talking about you'll spend at least $800 on food while you're there too. I mean, like $40 pizzas and french fries.

Ben Shapiro· Host1:04

Is the food made of gold? Like $40, $40 french fries? That, that, that sounds, that sounds bad. I, I think that this is a bad idea. Now, I will admit that you said that food price, like a $40 pizza, and I thought to myself, "Kosher pizza's pretty expensive," but it is not $40, actually. So that, that, that is a lot of... I mean, let's be fair. They are setting up an entire city in the mud again, and you just hope that there's not another one of those gigantic rainstorms that turns the whole thing into STDs in the mud.
