Lollapalooza is one of the biggest rock music festivals in the USA and the world. It started as a touring event, but after a while, Grant Park in Chicago was just too perfect a fit, so they decided to keep it there every year.

Lollapalooza is a 4-day music festival in July or early August. Hundreds of thousands of music fans come to Chicago every year to listen to what some of the best rock and metal bands in the lineup have to offer. We believe that Lollapalooza 2025 will be the same. The Festival sells out yearly, and attendance is estimated at around 400,000.

Lollapalooza is a global phenomenon with local editions in several countries. The Festival is also held in Argentina, Germany, Brazil, Sweden, and France.

When Is Lollapalooza 2025 in Chicago?

This year’s edition of Lollapalooza will be just a bit later than usual, from the 31st of July to the 3th of August. Chicago weather in August is excellent, with average temperatures between 82°F (28°C) during daytime and 64°F (18°C) at night.

Location of the Lollapalooza

Like in past years, Lollapalooza is again at Grant Park in Chicago. The park has seen some fantastic shows over the years, and we’re sure this year will be no different!

What Music Genres Does Lollapalooza Cover?

Lollapalooza was traditionally a place to hear artists from various genres in the lineup. In the past, it was more of rock, alternative, hard rock, and metal festivals. Today, you can also see some of the best pop, hip-hop, or electronic music artists on the festival stages. With nine stages, there’s something for everyone!

Important Info About Lollapalooza 2025

Here is our hand-picked section with FAQs and answers from the internet. What to wear, when to go, essential tips, it’s all here. Here are a few great tips from the music festival lovers’ community:

  • Prepare for the weather, and don’t strain yourself. It’s a four-day event; even though it’s summer, some weather changes may surprise you. Also, while it will be hot during the day, nights will be chilly, so dress appropriately.
  • “Apply sunscreen, find shade and rest, drink water lots of it, have a meeting place if you are in a group, go to merch early, and rent a locker on AXS. You will have a great time!” – great hint by Enough_Iron_6843 on Reddit.
  • “With most people getting off the Red or Blue CTA lines and heading into the festival from the east, the north entrance at Columbus and Monroe is often forgotten. The extra walk will be worth it when you don’t have to wait in line for upwards of 30 minutes.” – props to Do132 for the fantastic hint.
  • With the set times out, you can create a list of more artists you hope to see during the day, check the times, and make a schedule.
