Lollapalooza, the Chicago music festival that’s often imitated but never equaled, turns 25 this year, and the organizers are celebrating in a huge way. According to Consequence of Sound, they had so many bands interested in playing the annual event this year that they had to add a fourth day just to accommodate them – so, yep, for the first time in its history, Lollapalooza will offer four days full of music and partying. The festival is scheduled to take place July 28-31 at Hutchinson Field, Grant Park, Chicago.

Who Will be Performing?
While the headliners and schedule haven’t yet been announced, there’s been quite a lot of speculation, and at least one insider source has told Billboard and other industry mags that they’ll include some Lollapalooza veterans and favorites. The expected artists include Radiohead, who have headlined the festival once before, and Red Hot Chili Peppers, whose association with Lollapalooza dates back to the festival’s second show way back in 1992. They’ll be making their fourth appearance as headliners. Also making a return appearance will be LCD Sound System, who headlined the festival in 2007. Lollapalooza is one of the stops on their 2016 reunion tour. Other artists expected to appear include J. Cole and Lana del Ray. In all, there will be more than 170 performances over the four-day affair.
Lollapalooza founder Perry Farrell announced the expanded schedule in a December press release. “When the party won’t wait for the weekend,” he wrote, “the movers and shakers make it happen on Thursday. It’s going to be a great party!”
Will You be a Part of the Great Moments?
That could be an understatement. Lollapalooza is known for making great moments – the kind of concerts that make music history – and fan memories. Last year’s Lollapalooza, for example, included an incredible moment when Alabama Shakes lead singer Brittany Howard to sing along with Paul McCartney on “Get Back.” Fans won’t soon forget the sight and sound of the Howard and McCartney battling for mike time as they belted out “Get back to where you once belonged!”
