YG Entertainment has officially authorized the use of the group name in relation to BigBang's 'Coachella' grants.
On the 16th, the organizers of the world's largest music festival, the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival (Coachella), announced the lineup for the 2026 performances, and BigBang's inclusion drew attention.
G-Dragon, Taeyang and Daesung will reunite under the name BigBang next year to mark their 20th anniversary since debut. They are scheduled to present a global performance on the main stage at Coachella in Indio, California, on April 12 and 19, 2026 (North American local dates), showcasing a culmination of their 20-year musical journey.
Regarding this, YG Entertainment told OSEN on the 17th, said, "We approved the use of the BigBang group name after requests from Coachella and the members."
BigBang had no official activities after releasing "봄여름가을겨울 (Still Life)" in 2022. Last year, Taeyang and Daesung participated as featured artists on G-Dragon's new song "HOME SWEET HOME," but regrouping under the name BigBang marks the first time in four years.
With YG Entertainment, which owns the BigBang trademark, deciding to allow it, fans will be able to see the full BigBang together again at Coachella 2026. Previously, after G-Dragon moved to Galaxy Corporation, YG Entertainment fully transferred the trademarks for "G-Dragon", "GD", and "G.D." among others, enabling him to freely use his stage name in his solo activities.
As BigBang celebrates its 20th anniversary, anticipation is already building among fans worldwide about what kind of stage they will present at the global music festival Coachella.
