This year’s edition of the festival will see Olivia Rodrigo perform at the music bash in Chicago for the first time ever. The fest will also welcome back Sabrina Carpenter, this time as a headliner, just two years after her debut slot. KoRn will also be welcomed back to the Lollapalooza stage for the first time in 28 years.
History will also be made this year as Luke Combs will become Lollapalooza’s first-ever country closer while TWICE will be the first female K-pop group to headline Lollapalooza Chicago.
Last year’s edition of Lollapalooza saw the likes of Blink-182, Hozier, SZA, The Killers, Future x Metro Boomin, Stray Kids, Melanie Martinez, Skrillex, The Japanese House, Deftones and more perform.
In a five-star review of Lollapalooza 2023, NME shared: “But even in the midst of acts giving their best at the festival, there’s still an undercurrent of imperfection that makes it all approachable and real.
“Lollapalooza isn’t trying to be anything it’s not, and by returning each year with a new plan to prioritise diversity in sound as well as a steadfast dedication to highlighting fresh acts (like on its BMI stage, where up-and-coming acts like Annie DiRusso and Beauty School Dropout are met with fans who sing along to every single word) the festival proves its dedication to just putting the music first, and the fans Lollapalooza draws in mirror that effort.”
