Lollapalooza is returning to Chicago this summer, with organizers confirming the 2026 festival will take place July 30 through August 2 at Grant Park. The four-day event once again takes over the heart of the city, bringing hundreds of thousands of fans together for one of the biggest music festivals in North America.
The full lineup for 2026 has not yet been announced, but organizers say the artist roster is expected to arrive soon. The festival traditionally features more than 170 artists across multiple stages, blending pop, rock, hip-hop, electronic, and global acts throughout the weekend.
Last year’s lineup included major headliners Olivia Rodrigo, Tyler The Creator, Sabrina Carpenter, Rufus Du Sol, Luke Combs, Twice, ASAP Rocky, Korn, Gracie Abrams, and Doechii. The festival also continues to drive tourism in Chicago, with millions of hotel stays and hundreds of millions of dollars in local revenue tied to the annual event.
