World-renowned pop artist Justin Bieber, 31, is reportedly set to earn a staggering $10 million as the headliner for the Coachella festival in 2026, a feat he has achieved without the assistance of a manager or agent.
According to a report from Rolling Stone, a source informed the magazine on Wednesday that this marks a historic milestone for the festival's main performer, and it is something he has fought for entirely on his own.
"Becoming the headlining artist at Coachella and the success of his new album clearly signals the dawn of an exciting new era for Justin Bieber – an era where he is in the driver's seat," the source explained.
The Canadian star, who creates his music in the United States, is said to have secured this deal directly from the festival organizers, Goldenvoice, and will receive $5 million for each weekend of the globally renowned event.
The hitmaker of the song Sorry (2015) will be officially announced as one of the main performers at Coachella, alongside Sabrina Carpenter, Karol G, and Anyma.
This eagerly anticipated festival is scheduled to take place from April 10 to 12, and April 17 to 19, 2026, in Indio, California, USA.
Bieber has not hired a manager since parting ways with Scooter Braun in 2023 after a collaborative partnership that lasted nearly 15 years. In July, Bieber resolved a financial dispute with Braun by paying his company, Hybe, over $8.8 million.
Braun, who officially retired from the industry in 2024, had lent Bieber that money in 2020 to cover part of a $40 million loan provided by Anschutz Entertainment Group (AEG) to fund his tour, which was later postponed.
