The Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival is already a bit of a circus and this spring, one of its DJs will be the founder of one.

Coachella unveiled its lineup for the 2020 edition this past week and it features a prominent Quebecer, Guy Laliberté.

The 60-year-old Quebec native, whose net worth is estimated at $1.1 billion, has been busy since selling Cirque, building a private island and most recently, unveiled the PY1 Pyramid in Old Montreal.
