Cairo, Egypt – Mohamed Ramadan has etched his name in history as the first-ever Egyptian performer to be featured at the iconic Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in California, USA — a groundbreaking moment for Arab artists on the global stage.
The multifaceted star is scheduled to perform on the ‘Gobi Stage’ across two Sundays, April, 13 and 20, joining a star-studded line-up that includes the likes of Lady Gaga, Ed Sheeran, and Travis Scott, among other global music giants.
Ramadan’s appearance at Coachella represents a significant cultural milestone — it’s the first time an Egyptian artist has been invited to one of the world’s most celebrated music festivals. Held at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, the event draws hundreds of thousands of fans from across the globe and serves as a major platform for both established and emerging talents.
Since announcing his participation in November 2024, Ramadan has actively built anticipation for his performance through Instagram and TikTok. His recent posts, starting from April 4, document his arrival in Los Angeles with his family and offer behind-the-scenes moments from his American journey — from road trips and nature breaks to playful moments with his children.
In addition to preparing for Coachella, Ramadan has kept fans engaged with new music. His latest track, ‘2aloo Eh’, dropped on April 4, showcasing his signature bold lyrics and charisma. He also collaborated on ‘Rolla Rolla’, a multilingual hit released on March 17, alongside French Montana, Rusha & Blizza, Jasmine S, and DJ Shadow.
Ramadan, who first rose to fame as a television and film actor, has successfully carved out a parallel career as a singer. Over the past six years, he has become known for his vibrant fusion of rap, pop, and Mahraganat, with massive hits like ‘Bum Bum’, ‘Baba’, and ‘Aladdin Lamp’.
His debut at Coachella marks not just a personal triumph, but a broader step forward for Middle Eastern representation in global pop culture.
