Apple Music will livestream the Head Trip electronic music festival from Indio, California, on October 10 and 11. The online broadcast will be free to watch, giving fans an alternative to traveling to the sold-out event.
The festival’s official livestream page describes the broadcast as a one-time live event on Apple Music across both days. Apple Music also announced the dates through its official social account.
Who is playing Head Trip
The lineup includes Calvin Harris, Fisher with Chris Lake, Peggy Gou with Four Tet, Swedish House Mafia, Skrillex, and Dom Dolla with Kettama. The broadcast is expected to focus on main-stage sets, although the public event page does not provide a detailed streaming timetable for individual artists.

Head Trip takes place at the Empire Polo Club, the same Indio venue associated with several Goldenvoice festivals. In-person tickets sold quickly, making the Apple Music stream the most accessible way for many listeners to follow the performances as they happen.
Apple has not said that a paid Apple Music subscription is required for this specific broadcast. The announcement describes the stream as free, but viewers should still expect to use the Apple Music app or website and may need an Apple Account to access the event page.
The partnership continues Apple Music’s use of full-length concert video and DJ programming. Earlier this year, Fred Again’s Dublin Apple Music Live set became available worldwide on demand.
Head Trip’s announcement covers a live broadcast rather than guaranteed replay access. Anyone interested in a particular set should check the official page closer to October 10 for start times and any region-specific availability details.
Viewers should also confirm the schedule in their local timezone. The event takes place over two days in California, and a late-night performance in Indio may begin on the following calendar date elsewhere. Neither Apple Music nor the festival has published a complete set-by-set streaming schedule yet.
