A bright-orange immersive photo display inspired by the desert valley will feature layered mountains, palm trees, and a sun with golden hour lighting and mirrored features, making it a can't miss experience.

In addition to the Aperol Spritz Piazza, Aperol can be found at the Aperol Ape in the VIP Rose Garden, the Aperol Spritz Bar in the 12 Peaks VIP Area, and in the Safari Campgrounds.

"For our third year at Coachella, we wanted to create a space where festival-goers can immerse themselves in the spirit of Aperol. The new experience in the Aperol Spritz Piazza is our way of offering something spontaneous and exciting every day, making Coachella 2025 even more memorable for everyone who joins the joy."

Aperol will also bring the spirit of Italy to the Safari Campgrounds.

About Aperol

Aperol^® is the iconic aperitif known globally for its bright orange hue and unique floral flavor profile, which derives from a secret recipe that has remained unchanged for over a century.

Aperol Spritz is the #1 cocktail in Italy*, and the #8 cocktail globally**. The signature cocktail is made by mixing Aperol, Cinzano Prosecco, and a splash of soda water in a wine glass full of ice, and garnishing with a slice of orange. Its light, herbaceous, and floral flavor profile truly make it the ideal drink for every occasion.
