Lollapalooza Brings Four Days of Music to Chicago’s Lakefront

Grant Park in Chicago, IL

From July 30 through August 2, Lollapalooza will take place in Chicago’s Grant Park. As one of Chicago’s signature annual events, the festival draws music fans to the city for four days of live music and food on the lakefront. The experience feels distinctly connected to Chicago, with stages throughout the venue offering views of the skyline, lakefront, and surrounding downtown neighborhoods.

This year’s lineup includes a wide range of major artists across pop, rock, electronic, hip-hop, and alternative music. Headliners include Charli XCX, Tate McRae, Lorde, Olivia Dean, John Summit, Jennie, The Smashing Pumpkins, and The XX.

Additional performers include Lil Uzi Vert, Sombr, The Neighbourhood, Yungblud, Ethel Cain, Empire of the Sun, Major Lazer, The Chainsmokers, Zara Larsson, Geese, and more. With more than 170 artists across eight stages, the festival continues to present one of the largest music lineups of the summer.

Lollapalooza also includes food, drinks, brand activations, lounges, merchandise, and interactive experiences across the park. Chow Town brings together a wide range of food vendors, with options that reflect Chicago’s broader dining scene.

The festival also features Kidzapalooza, a family-friendly area with activities and programming for younger attendees. Official aftershows extend the experience to venues across the city, giving fans another way to see artists in a smaller setting after the main festival ends each night.

Single-day passes and premium experiences are available through Lollapalooza’s official ticketing channels, where ticket availability is updated regularly.
