Coachella has delayed the check-in for campers of the festival from Thursday morning to 3 am on Friday. So what’s a Coachella camper to do? Walmartchella.
An invite to all campers went out on Reddit Thursday morning and already it looks like plenty of people have decided it’s their best option.
“WALMARTCHELLA 2K18 HAPPENING RIGHT NOW THE ONE OFF MONROE COME HAVE BEERS CLEAN UP YOUR TRASH MAKE FRIENDS LETS STAY POSITIVE GUYS ♥️” the post reads.
Here are some pics from the scene:
And here’s some video:

And here is what people are saying about it:
Indio is anarchy rn. Every camper has turned the Walmart parking lot into #WalmartChella and people are setting up their campsites for the day ?

The desert is always full of surprised this time of year.
