A quick scroll through Saint Levant’s Instagram feed is enough to realize how rapid his ascent into the spotlight has been in the last couple of years. Considered a promising artist ever since his first release in 2020, the part-Palestinian hitmaker is now an established name in the region’s music scene, and it seems to be only a matter of time before he becomes a global superstar. Especially now that the 23-year-old has officially been revealed as one of the performing artists at the next edition of Coachella this spring.
Expected to hit the stage on both weekends of the renowned event— on April 13 and 20, 2024– the Very Few Friends singer will be delivering his rich repertoire of hits alongside some of the industry’s most esteemed names such as headliners Lana Del Ray and American rapper and record producer Tyler the Creator, New-York hip-hop sensation Ice Spice, as well as French DJ Gesaffelstein.

With tickets available on presale from Jan. 19 at a price point starting at $499 for tier-one general admissions, be sure to secure a spot at what is surely going to be one of the most-talked-about moments in the first quarter of 2024.
