Coachella tickets sold out at record speed, and don't think about trying to sneak in if you didn't get one.

Festival organizers just announced strict guidelines involving high-security wristbands. There will also be police checkpoints within a mile radius of the festival, where every fan will be checked to make sure they have a wristband on the right wrist.

Fans also can't ride a bike or walk towards the event without a wristband and any wristbands tampered or altered in any way will be subject to expulsion from the festival by staff without refund.

Kanye West, Arcade Fire, Odd Future, and The Strokes are amongst the festival's most anticipated acts.
