H&M

Festival-goers will be able to visit the retailer's branded tent to peruse its specially-created H&M Loves Coachella Collection. Styles take their inspiration from the summer festival circuit, and there are options available for both men and women.

The tent also features a video booth, offering customers the chance to embark on a journey through a desert landscape, air conditioning, a water refill service, charging stations and wifi.

Heineken

Heineken is re-creating a house party experience via its Heineken House tent, which will host DJs and live music performances from the likes of the OG and Igeras. The pop-up features a sustainable dance floor, which will convert human energy into electrical beams, and light up as people dance. 

The brand is also offering complimentary refrigerated storage to customers who are camping at the festival, as well as a delivery service. 

Pandora

The brand’s Jewellery Style Discovery experience features a crystal mirage, which promises to offer ‘a peek into the unexpected’, air conditioning, phone charging services and wifi. Festival-goers will also be able to purchase leather bracelets on-site. 

Tag Heuer

There will also be an interactive GIF photo booth onsite, offering visitors the chance to capture their experience in new and unique way.

Uber

Uber is offering its pick-up service throughout the festival, to those who visit the Uber Lounge and request a driver via their app. Customers will be able to charge their phone, sip on water and listen to music as they wait for their driver to arrive.
