Joe Jonas knows Coachella — and more importantly, he knows how to survive it.
Returning to the desert for Coachella 2026, the Jonas Brothers star showed up not only as a performer, but also as a seasoned pro with a surprisingly relevant packing list…and a very random extra.
“I’m going to fill my rental with Aperol spritz,” he joked as he headed out to host a party at the Aperol Day Club.
Hydration priorities aside, Jonas says years of festival chaos have taught him the basics: sunscreen, portable chargers – and apparently an Xbox. Because why not?
Between hosting duties and spontaneous moments (yes, he appeared during Teddy Swim’s set), Jonas treats the weekend like a carefully curated atmosphere, not a marathon.
“The lineup is wild. Fantastic. I think it’s going to be really great,” he said, shouting out artists like Turnstile, the xx and Teddy Swims. “Just people who I definitely overplayed their music on my Spotify.”
He’s also keeping tabs on Disney alumna Sabrina Carpenter, who made Friday night’s headlines.
“I feel pretty proud of anyone who comes from the Disney-verse,” he said. “I’m so happy for her. I think she’s crushing it.”
As for his biggest piece of advice? It’s almost anti-Coachella.
“I feel like it can get a little chaotic… Don’t chase the party. Just, hey, if you’re happy in your little corner, that’s great. It doesn’t matter.”
Translation: avoid stress, keep your drink cold and maybe… bring a gaming console.
