Attention all artists: We need your help spotting carpoolers as they arrive at Coachella 2026. Design an epic Carpoolchella bumper sticker, and if your artwork is picked, you'll roll to the festival with (2) VIP passes, camping, and other cool prizes.

Carpoolchella is one of the festival's longest-running programs — awarding prizes of all sizes, including VIP for Life, since 2007. Every year, winners are selected at random by our team of secret spotters, who patrol the parking lots scanning the incoming cars with the word Carpoolchella displayed somewhere on the vehicle.

Coachella + Global Inheritance are looking for the coolest Carpoolchella bumper sticker designs for people to display while carpooling to the festival. Your artwork should be created to be printable at 11.5"w x 3"h. The deadline to submit concepts is March 25. Three winning bumper sticker concepts will be announced on March 28, 2026.

Artwork will be judged on creativity, originality, and distinctive use of the name Carpoolchella in the design. There are no limits on the number of submissions. AI-generated art will not be accepted.
