Travis Kelce lifts the lid on going to Coachella with Taylor Swift and says he had ‘so much fun’ watching her close friend Jack Antonoff’s band Bleachers… while Jason reveals the one thing he hates about the festival

Travis Kelce has lifted the lid on his busy weekend at Coachella with girlfriend Taylor Swift, revealing which bands he loved and how he had ‘so much fun’ watching the singer’s close friend Jack Antonoff.

The three-time Super Bowl winner and Swift appeared to have a blast at the first weekend of the iconic music festival in the desert in Indio, California.

It was the first time Swift has attended the music festival since 2016 while Kelce was seen at the event in 2022 and 2023 with some of his friends.

Pictures and videos from stunned fans in the crowd showed them taking in a number of bands and DJ sets over the course of the weekend, including Antonoff and his band Bleachers.

During the latest episode of New Heights, Kelce opened up on his memorable weekend in the desert and his love for live music.

The Kansas City Chiefs star said: ‘I love live music, man. I absolutely love live music. I don’t get enough of it in my life. I really enjoy any event. I just like going to events, going to places where people are seeing talents, all these talented people in the world. I just like to experience that s***.

‘I like experiencing new cultures and one thing I really enjoy about Coachella is it’s not just one genre of music. It’s everything’

‘It was also good to go and see a few new bands who I wasn’t really that familiar with and just became an absolute lover of their music because of how they performed and how they captivated the crowd and got everybody into it.

‘Like Bleachers, and Jack Antonoff, absolutely ripped it. I had so much fun seeing him go nuts with the guitar and all of his boys. He had two sax players, two drummers, two guitars and they just ripped it. It was so much fun to watch.

‘One of my favorite bands right now are Jungle. They absolutely killed it. Played one of my favorite songs ‘Cassio’ and I was out there grooving to that.

‘How could I forget my guy Dom Dolla? One of my favorite DJs out here. He kills it every single time. He did two sets – he’s also in a combined DJ group with John Summit – but I didn’t get to see that one because I was still working.

‘Saturday was such a fun, fun day. I love going to Coachella. Hopefully I can keep going but obviously you know the schedule always fills the f*** up real quick in the offseason.’

Jason, who revealed he’s also been to Coachella several times, offered a slightly more cynical view of the event and joked he needed medication to cope with all the walking.

The retired star added: ‘Dude, the one thing you’ve got to be ready for at Coachella is you’ve got to take your anti-inflammatories.

‘It is some walking and dancing. You’re moving at Coachella, there’s like seven different stages.

But brother Jason revealed the one thing he hates about Coachella after years of attending

‘It’s the one thing I regret each year. How much walking there is. It’s amazing every year but it’s a lot of walking.’

He continued: ‘We know who you went with. We’ve seen the pictures.’

Travis interrupted: ‘She was supporting New Heights.’

Jason then added that Swift is a ‘big New Heights supporter’ and that they ‘sold out of the green hat real quick’, before asking why Kelce and Swift were in the crowd, rather than backstage.

Travis explained: ‘I like to see it from the fans’ perspective because I’m a fan of music and live shows.

‘I want to see it from the front of the stage. We probably could have finessed it that way but it’s more of an experience if you’re in the pit and the madness with all the fans.
