Coachella, one of the summer's largest and most prolific music festivals, confirmed Drake as a headliner of this year's installment.

The Jewish rapper performs on April 12 and April 19.

Every year, music fans anxiously await the announcement of which bands and artists will appear at Coachella, which takes place from April 10-12 and April 17-19 this year.

The setting of the multi-day festival, which unfolds over three days and over two consecutive weekends, with duplicate lineups appearing each weekend, is the picturesque Empire Polo Club in Indio, California. It's like the coolest thing to do all summer-long, with droves of Los Angelenos heading out to the desert to take part in the festivities.

Surprise, unannounced guests are a thing at Coachella, which means there's a chance Drake's friend and frequent collabator, Nicki Minaj, will come out onstage with him. Let's just hope that Minaj leaves the Nazi-inspired symbolism behind.

Tickets for Coachella–full name: Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival–go on sale tomorrow, Jan. 7, at noon.
