Coachella Takes on Urban Outfitters in TM Claim

2017/03/21

The organizers of music festival Coachella have taken a shot at retailer Urban Outfitters in a trademark infringement claim. Coachella accused the retailer, and its subsidiary Free People, of selling ‘Coachella’-branded apparel. The claim was filed at the US District Court for the Central District of California, Western Division on March 14. The festival organizers own a number of ‘Coachella’ trademarks and have used them in connection with the festival and related goods and services since the first event in 1999.
