Safari Campground is Coachella's most expensive on-site campsite, with luxury tent rates beginning around $10,000 for a four-night stay.
Festival packages including lodging at circular Resort Yurts cost around $25,000, according to Money.
Staying on the campgrounds gives festival-goers access t0 a private bar and spa, along with personal golf cart transportation to and from the stages.
For some Coachella attendees, $430 tickets may well end up being one of the cheapest purchases of the long weekend.
While many people opt for luxury hotels or mansion-sized Airbnbs, others choose to stay at the Safari Campground, the festival's most expensive on-site campground.
Business Insider's Hillary Hoffower previously reported that total Coachella costs vary depending on attendee preferences. While it is possible to budget, the rich and famous who attend the infamous festival are usually more than willing to pay above-average costs. On the other end of the spectrum, there's also the more affordable but far less glamorous $125 car camping option.
Prices for Safari Tents begin at $9,500 with the option to add up to two additional guests for a $2,500 fee per person. For Resort Yurts, prices vary depending on customization packages. Money previously estimated a yurt stay to cost $25,000 for the weekend, which also included catered meals and two artist passes to the festival shows.

Guests can choose from a single queen bed, double queen bed, or a lounge set-up. If two guests are sharing queen beds, additional fees run $2,500 per person.
The campsite also features Resort Yurts, which can house two people in a queen-sized bed. These structures include a more customized experience, including airport transportation and mini-fridges stocked with your personal favorites. According to Money, these will run guests around $25,000 and come with premium tickets, a complimentary bottle of champagne, breakfast served daily, and dinner reservations.
And while they appear secluded, they are close enough to the venue for private golf-cart transportation — for those who spring for the most expensive package.
