The lineup for Lollapalooza 2025 has been announced

Lollapalooza used to be this fantastic collection of alt-rock and left-of-centre acts that celebrated being different? Now it’s just another pop music festival. Oh, organizers give a token nod to the festival’s past, but hasn’t had any alt-rock awesomeness for years. In fact, it’s given up all pretense of being a rock festival.

The 2025 edition is once again set for Grant Park in Chicago from July 31 to August 3. The lineup includes headliners Olivia Rodrigo, Sabrina Carpenter, Tyler, the Creator, Doechii, A$AP Rocky, Gracie Abrams, RÜFÜS DU SOL, Korn, TWICE, and Luke Combs.

Fans can also expect to see Clairo, Cage the Elephant, The Marías, Djo, Dom Dolla, Martin Garrix, Bleachers, Mk.gee, Wallows, Dominic Fike, Foster the People, T-Pain, Sierra Ferrell, Finneas, Remi Wolf, Royel Otis, Marina, Bladee, Barry Can’t Swim, JPEGMAFIA, 2Hollis, Flipturn, Magdalena Bay, Isaiah Rashad, Mariah the Scientist, and Amaarae.

There’s more, but you get the idea.

Pre-sale tickets go on sale tomorrow (March 20) at 10 am CDT. They start at US$385 for general admission, head up to “GA+” for US$715, VIP for US$1,565, and Platinum for US$4,500. I checked and none of those are typos.
