Lollapalooza has locked in its return to Grant Park, Chicago from 30th July - 2nd August, 2026, confirming the dates for its next four-day summer takeover. The iconic US festival will once again transform the heart of the Windy City with multiple stages, lakefront views and one of the most diverse lineups on the global circuit. While the 2026 artists are yet to be revealed, anticipation is already building following another blockbuster year in 2025.

Last year’s edition set a high bar, headlined by Olivia Rodrigo, Tyler, The Creator, Sabrina Carpenter and Australian electronic trio RÜFÜS DU SOL. Country star Luke Combs, K-pop powerhouse Twice and rap heavyweight A$AP Rocky further underscored the festival’s genre-spanning reach. From Korn and Cage The Elephant to Doechii, Dom Dolla and Gracie Abrams, the 2025 lineup blended global chart-toppers with cutting-edge emerging talent.

Lollapalooza’s footprint continues to expand both culturally and commercially, with hundreds of thousands of fans descending on Chicago each year. The 2026 dates position the festival at the peak of the Northern Hemisphere summer, reinforcing its status as a cornerstone of the international touring calendar and a bucket-list event for artists and fans alike.

With four days of music locked in for 30th July - 2nd August, 2026, attention now turns to the forthcoming lineup announcement and ticket details. If recent years are any indication, Lollapalooza 2026 is set to deliver another cross-genre spectacle in the heart of Chicago.
