The couple also packed on the PDA while enjoying the producer-musician’s set at the festival.
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce stole the show at the first weekend of Coachella 2024, where they made a surprise appearance to watch performances from the pop star’s collaborators Jack Antonoff and Ice Spice. And based on a newly shared photo, the couple also spent some quality time with friends backstage on Saturday (April 13) — specifically, with the guys of Antonoff’s band, Bleachers.
Drummer Sean Hutchinson posted a group picture from the festival on Instagram Monday night (April 15), showing Swift and the Kansas City Chiefs tight end smiling as they posed with band manager Evan Winiker and saxophonist Zem Audu. The “Anti-Hero” singer holds Kelce’s hand as he wraps an arm around her shoulder, both parties sporting baseball caps.
“Hutchella Weekend 1,” Hutchinson, who’s recorded drums for Swift’s 1989 (Taylor’s Version), captioned the post.
At a different point in the day, the 14-time Grammy winner and Kelce enjoyed Bleachers’ set from a backstage tent at the Mojave Stage, where fan cameras captured the pair kissing and dancing along to the music. Later, they enjoyed Ice Spice’s Sahara Stage takeover from the crowd, the football star wrapping his arms around his superstar girlfriend from behind as they jammed out to the rapper’s solo rendition of her hit collaboration with Swift, “Karma.”
Swift’s Coachella appearance came almost exactly one week ahead of the release of her highly anticipated 11th studio album, The Tortured Poets Department, which drops April 19. She and her team have been hard at work getting fans fired up for the project, hiding one-word clues in the lyrics to the singer’s older tracks on Apple Music and unveiling a curated Spotify library installation in Los Angeles this week.
