Lollapalooza returns in full force this year, according to an announcement from the festival Tuesday, with more than 170 performances slated for eight stages on Chicago’s lakefront park over the last weekend of July. Also part of the mix is food from some 35 chefs and restaurants including vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free options. Plus Kidzapalooza is back this summer with free admission for children ages 10 and under.
Also on the bill:
Jane’s Addiction, Glass Animals, Billy Strings, Big Sean, The Kid Laroi, Jazmine Sullivan, Don Toliver, Charli XCX, Idles, Turnstile, Kaskade, Rezz, The Marías, Zhu, YG, Dominic Fike, King Princess, Wallows, Still Woozy, Girl in Red, Ashnikko, Denzel Curry, BLXST, Black Coffee, Duke Dumont, Polo & Pan, Liquid Stranger, CloZee, Willow, Royal Blood, Måneskin, Manchester Orchestra, Cordae, Local Natives, Tove Lo and Caroline Polachek.

Lolla was one of the first big music fests back and running in Chicago last summer, scrambling at times to keep up with vaccine and mask requirements that were changing for the city and state even while the 2021 fest was in session. Lollapalooza is presented by Austin, Texas-based C3 Presents, a division of Live Nation.
In the announcement, the festival also said it would be introducing NFTs (non-fungible tokens) that fans can purchase; follow the Lollapalooza Metaverse Twitter account @LollaFrens.
C3 Presents, which is also putting on the new Sueños Music Festival, separately announced a first-time Music Festival Career Fair, a Chicago-based recruitment event aimed at those hoping to get into the music industry. Kennedy-King College will host the 10 a.m. April 2 event. The free event will be open to the public and catered toward students enrolled in City Colleges of Chicago. The lineup includes a recruitment fair featuring Lollapalooza and Sueños vendors, panel discussions, industry-focused workshops and a keynote lecture from music artist Rhymefest.
