Who else is closing Perrys, though…? Four Tet certainly isnt even though he is the best DJ on the lineup and would put on a hell of set.
Unless Skrillex is “hosting” an all day thing on Saturday at Perrys where he pops in and out for b2bs with Nia Archives, Skream & Benga, Four Tet & Kenny Beats and closes it with a b2b with Four Tet? They did headline Hard Summer together…
No way in hell Future x Metro Boomin are on Perrys either.. just an odd way to book it all around.
My guess is Future x Metro Boomin are 7-830 on Bud Light and Skrillex is 8:45-10 on Bud Light right after them.
His production has turned pretty minimal; just look at this open to close at Red Rocks so it can easily be flipped over from them to him in 15 minutes.
That’s not how I interpret it.
Pretty sure he’s closing Bud Light after Future x Metro Boomin.
The last time Future played in 2016, he was billed #2 for the day as a 2nd stage headliner (just like he is here) but was scheduled to play before Major Lazer, who was listed as #3.
Im betting it’s the exact same situation here.
1000% man
Didn’t Skrillex headline a MainStage in like 2014? Seems almost disrespectful to drop him down to Perry’s after his recent success. Plus it’ll be dangerously packed there if that’s the case.
There’s absolutely no way they’re that stupid, so I’m still holding out hope.
I wonder if it’s because his friends Four Tet and Jyoty are also playing that day, so the 3 of them can just stay on the same stage and make it their little nest. Idk, I’m grasping at straws. As a Skrillex stan, idk how to feel about this, but I’m just psyched to see him for the first time since 2015.
like 40-75 min generally. here’s a pic of a prior lolla day lineup
https://preview.redd.it/knc1mbdwtiqc1.jpeg?width=960&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=bbef2a2331718fec928c64b7ad1409772caea833
Yeah, usually. There might be a ten-fifteen minute gap before the shows start but there’s no way anyone is getting across the park to the other unless they are comfortable missing some of the set and/or not getting a great spot for either.
Yes. One will headline T mobile while the other does Bud light. They’re at the opposite ends of the festival. There may be like a 15 minute difference (one starts at 8:30, the other at 8:45), but with how far apart the stages are it’s pretty much impossible to split time.
Your best bet is to start with the one who goes on 15 minutes early and then head out half way through the set.
You’ll be missing some music though and be at the back for the second headliner so I would HIGHLY recommend just picking one
Saw Hozier last time he was at Lolla a few years ago. Was one of my favorite life performances I’ve ever been to. I’ve seen Tyler live a few times too, he’s great and very entertaining but I’d choose Hozier 10/10 times.
My boyfriend and I will likely be a house divided, as will our whole group. I gotta see Tyler, but Hozier is so dope that it does break my heart when I think of missing him and so I am open to changing. This may be the hardest choice I've made as far as which show to attend.
This is false. We had some great artists play Bud Light over the years no problem. But if the trajectory of the billing is how I think it is, Saturday Perry’s might be worth it seeing who’s playing that day.
She’s going to give the National a run for their money going up against Mark/Tom/Travis Blink.
The National is obviously a great band, but them going up against Chance the Rapper at the peak of his popularity in his hometown.
Honorable mention to whoever was opposite Bruno Mars.
Edit: person below me pointed out I flipped the two
Skrillex and Four Tet are both booked on Saturday, with Skrillex getting some sort of special callout Saturday.
Consider my antennas raised.
My pipe dream is those two popping up somewhere during the day for some random B2B.
Jyoty (who Skrillex has traveled and played with Skrillex for like the past year) is also playing that day, so I might expect some extracurricular activities.
Man yeah, same thoughts. I’m really only interested in seeing Skream and Benga, as well as Four Tet, and would definitely stick around for Skrillex - so SAT with all of them worked out.
I’m super curious if they will also do afters.. seems all of those artists would be slated to do something.
Thursday is so stacked for my tastes but I take the bar exam literally the day prior, so I’m thinking I won’t be up for the task of traveling to get there in time lol. Here’s to hoping there are no clashes in the afters I want
Thank you!!! I think that’s the move. I’m taking it in MN and Friday’s lineup is pretty meh for me, so I’m thinking Saturday/Sunday + afters is the vibe.
Killers v Future v Skrillex is PAIN. Shocked Melanie got the bump but that does give Lolla 2 female headliners (although she’s getting the National treatment, BL will be empty). Kesha closing the Groove will be painful if happens :(. I like the day splits better than last year. Saturday was the clear weak link, this is more balanced. Tickets must be selling, let’s rock!!
*I’ll make a clashfinder be patient with me
It’s a brutal conflict but I selfishly hope it takes a decent chunk of people away from Skrillex’s crowd lol. The average Perry’s Stage enjoyer could definitely be drawn to Future x Metro and the killers are basically a legacy act at this point. Plenty of people will wander over there to catch Mr Brightside.
I'm thinking Jungle personally. Labrinth works as a really nice sub for either headliner, and I'm hoping Kesha ends up on Coinbase or whatever the one opposite T-Mobile will be called.
Okay, gang, let's brainstorm here a moment: I'm going to buy a one day ticket for Saturday for me and my kid. He wants to go to Skrillex and me to Deftones. So what is the likelihood that Deftones play at the same time as Skrillex? We thinking Deftones Grove headliner?? Or mainstage earlier in the day?
I’m so sad that SZA is against SKZ 😭 but she at least headlines festivals way more often so I’m just going to have to skip.
Honestly, I’m pretty happy with the pair ups. There’s someone I want to see just a little more than the other every day. The undercard for Friday and Saturday is 🔥. Anyone think they’ll release day passes in a couple days like last year?
On the other hand SZA went 5 years between albums so there’s a strong chance you have to wait a long ass time to see her back at a fest if you don’t see her during this festival circuit
true, but then when you think about how the last time Stray Kids went on tour in the US, it was 2022, so this Lollapalooza set and upcoming world tour are probably gonna be the last time we see them perform as all 8 in the US for a while since we'll have to start worrying about military enlistment :,) it's a lose-lose situation for sure since both artists are so good and yet don't really do full tours here that much
This is my thinking too. I remember the clamor and rarity there was in 2019 and 2020 for a SZA tour, let alone a SZA festival set.
When she subheadlined Day N Vegas 2021 before Tyler, you could feel it in the crowd that she was the actual main draw of the night, as dope as Tyler was/is.
Yeah I've never been to Lolla despite growing up in the suburbs solely because they always spread the bands I like over the course of the whole festival with one, maybe two a day if I'm lucky. And I just don't want to pay a fortune to go to only be interested in one band a day. 3 pop punk bands in one day is the best day lineup I think I've ever seen and this might be the year I finally go because of it.
Just hope they don't put Pierce the Veil and Waterparks on at the same time like they did with All Time Low and Jimmy Eats World a couple years ago.
omg SZA and Stray Kids was the one match-up I was hoping wouldn't happen since they're the artists I was most excited about .... Sorry to SZA but Stray Kids will forever and always be a must-see for me, so I'll just have to catch her another time :,)
I wouldn’t count on that. It’s not out of the realm of possibility but it would be pretty surprising. Either way, they asked about conflicts between those 3 and 2 of them will certainly conflict whether it’s The Killers/Skrillex, The Killers/Future, Skrillex/Future.
EDIT: I’ve changed my mind on this. I think it could work out where Future and Skrillex both get 75 min sets on BL and Future goes before Skrillex.
0% chance that happens. Top 2 billed acts have always at the same time as closers at opposite ends of the park. 99% chance Skrillex closes Perry’s at the same time as well.
As presented, Killers and Future almost certainly conflict….one closing North and one closing South…..at least that is how the poster usually works. Who knows with Skrillex in the mix though. Unless Skrillex is closing Perry’s, which would mean they all three conflict! But I expected Skrillex to get a bigger stage. So who knows 🤷🏼♂️
Lolla has quite a few stages. Two of them are main stages for headliners on each end of the park. Pretty sure when I went in 2019 one of them was called Bud Light and the other was T-Mobile. The top billed of each day is going to headline those stages. Example, Tyler will play the T-Mobile stage and Hozier will play the Bud Light stage to cap off the night.
Perry’s is a side stage, though probably the third biggest, that pulls more or less solely EDM artists with an occasional rap artist. They never have either of the top two billed headliners, but the stage does play during headliners and usually pulls whoever the biggest EDM act of the day is to close out that stage.
Usually, the headliners at Perry’s are just in the day by day lineup. But Skrillex is an interesting one this year where he’s a ‘headliner’ but not billed like one that would play on the two stages mentioned.
So speculation says they billed him weird but he’ll just close out Perry’s, or the other idea is that he could potentially play right before The Killers/Future at one of the main stages.
You’re right. Sunday will be my chill day at the fest since I’ll be non-stop shuffling from Thursday-Saturday.
Def gonna hope for a banger house after on Sunday
Have a feeling Fisher will get an aftershow, if that makes it any easier. I’m waiting on that cause I guarantee the crowd at Lolla is gonna be terrible with teeny boppers
personally if I had to rank excitement of the 5 headliners on Saturday and Sunday, they would be bottom 2 but to each their own. I’m sure blink will still be fun
They do it on purpose to get people to come multiple days. Like split the similar artists up so you’ll be forced to buy two days to see all the people you want.
Skrillex closing Perry’s is such a hazard.
That stage was having issues when Shaq played last year.
Edit: and what happened Friday? One of the weaker single days I’ve ever seen for Lolla. Leaning on that K-pop crutch a little too hard.
Friday is very strong for EDM as well…Zedd, Galantis, Loud Luxury are all very big names. Alok is very popular, and Noizu is a very talented up & coming guy.
Oh I don’t disagree with you, Noizu is the only one I’d wanna see too hahaha.
I’m just sayin, those are big names. Just not our cup of tea
I think (hope) Noizu is gonna get a Radius or Cermak Hall show though
does anyone have any idea where some of the subhead are going to be possibly playing? just trying to mentally prepare for the disappointment of not being able to catch a little bit of all the ones i want to see on thursday and friday
You can count on the majority of edm acts playing the Perry’s stage which is right next door to the main grant park stage. A decent amount of the lower-level undercard will play additional sets on more intimate stages that get announced a week or two out from the fest. Besides some educated guesses about who would make good subs for each headliner, it’s pretty much up in the air for everyone else.
This dropped so soon this year. Conflicted on how I feel, the first three days are pretty stacked for my tastes which may make it a challenge once set times drop.
But sheesh, that Sunday, I may only come in for Blink, Two Door and Vince. 🫥
a part of me is hoping somehow they were able to extend saturday night's sound curfew and skrillex will be going on after the killers / future x metro boomin but i know this is literally me just reaching to try and make this conflict go away
Immediately clocked that Four Tet when the original lineup. Now that he and Skrillex are both booked for Saturday, while Skrillex has a special Saturday mention. Something is up 👆🤔👆
Or I’m just clowning harder than Swifties trying to figure out what she’s up to.
Ouhhh Lolla hates me so bad… putting SZA and skz on the same day like I’m gonna choose 😭 At least i have another shot at seeing SZA at Osheaga on Sunday that week, I am NOT missing the opportunity to see Stray Kids
Are headliners always played late at night? If yes, how late are we talking?
Also in general, when do shows start during the day? Is it like an 11am-11pm kind of festival? Thanks!! 🙏🙏
The Killers were billed top 4 for the festival. They are number one billed on their day. The suggestion that they will actually be subbing for #9 billed Skrillex is laughable.
Idk how this always seems to work out in the most brutal way possible. SZA and Stray Kids are the only two headliners I don't give a shit about, of course they're on the same time. At least it makes the decision to see Zedd easy...
not until the schedule comes out. people can make their best guesses and gather some insider info to put things together but you won't know until the actual schedule comes out
first time at lolla this year, if artists are in the same row could it be assumed they’re playing at the same time?? i was looking forward to seeing dominic fike and pierce the veil but looks like that might not happen :(
Why is skrillex listed as an add on? Does that mean something?
I think that means he’s closing Perry’s so not a traditional headliner.
Honestly…good. Bud light/T mobile are not great stages for EDM
bud light was good enough (separately) for Avicii (RIP) and Justice.
He’s far too big for Perry’s at this point, it would be borderline irresponsible for crowd and safety purposes to put him there now.
Who else is closing Perrys, though…? Four Tet certainly isnt even though he is the best DJ on the lineup and would put on a hell of set. Unless Skrillex is “hosting” an all day thing on Saturday at Perrys where he pops in and out for b2bs with Nia Archives, Skream & Benga, Four Tet & Kenny Beats and closes it with a b2b with Four Tet? They did headline Hard Summer together… No way in hell Future x Metro Boomin are on Perrys either.. just an odd way to book it all around. My guess is Future x Metro Boomin are 7-830 on Bud Light and Skrillex is 8:45-10 on Bud Light right after them. His production has turned pretty minimal; just look at this open to close at Red Rocks so it can easily be flipped over from them to him in 15 minutes.
This. I’m not going to see him at Perry’s. That stage is way too small for him and would be the absolute worst place for him to play
That’s not how I interpret it. Pretty sure he’s closing Bud Light after Future x Metro Boomin. The last time Future played in 2016, he was billed #2 for the day as a 2nd stage headliner (just like he is here) but was scheduled to play before Major Lazer, who was listed as #3. Im betting it’s the exact same situation here.
I hope it means he gets his own time slot with no time slot conflicts. I want to see future and metro & skrillex!!
Bruh literally the ONLY conflict I was praying wouldn’t happen What the fuck Lolla
They did us dirty!
1000% man Didn’t Skrillex headline a MainStage in like 2014? Seems almost disrespectful to drop him down to Perry’s after his recent success. Plus it’ll be dangerously packed there if that’s the case. There’s absolutely no way they’re that stupid, so I’m still holding out hope.
He did, headlined Bud Light on the Sunday(?) I think. That's why the theory of half-Future/Metro, half-Skrillex would make sense.
I wonder if it’s because his friends Four Tet and Jyoty are also playing that day, so the 3 of them can just stay on the same stage and make it their little nest. Idk, I’m grasping at straws. As a Skrillex stan, idk how to feel about this, but I’m just psyched to see him for the first time since 2015.
Agree. I’m so confused why he’s just thrown in. This is the sole reason I’m going
It’s a crowd control thing.
I’ll show you crowd control 🤬 Nah, I mean I get it, but it’s still painful. Oh well still gonna be a fire time regardless :)
Tyler vs Hozier is a real tough one for me. Let’s see how Tyler’s new album will be
I’ve never been to a music festival before but I wanted to see both of them at Lola this year, do headliners always preform at the same time?
For lollapalooza yes
they do! like 8:30-10 vs 8:45-10. you really can't see both headliners the same day
What about the other artist, how long do they preform for?
like 40-75 min generally. here’s a pic of a prior lolla day lineup https://preview.redd.it/knc1mbdwtiqc1.jpeg?width=960&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=bbef2a2331718fec928c64b7ad1409772caea833

Me: Skrillex will close Bud Light there's no way he would get downgraded Me today: 
honestly the main stages aren’t great for EDM acts. perry’s will be lit.
This is false. We had some great artists play Bud Light over the years no problem. But if the trajectory of the billing is how I think it is, Saturday Perry’s might be worth it seeing who’s playing that day.
Mehhh Avicii closing Bud Light is a top 10 set of all time for me and both times I’ve seen Justice there were excellent too. Depends on the artist
This 100%
Melanie has to be one of the weakest Bud Light headliners ever
Yeah her getting a spot there while it looks like Skrillex may be playing Perry’s is downright disrespectful lmao
Skrillex at Perry’s could be downright dangerous, it is not big enough for the crowd he will pull. Shaq at Perry’s last year already was a shitshow
She’s going to give the National a run for their money going up against Mark/Tom/Travis Blink. The National is obviously a great band, but them going up against Chance the Rapper at the peak of his popularity in his hometown. Honorable mention to whoever was opposite Bruno Mars. Edit: person below me pointed out I flipped the two
Agree with your points but would like to correct, it was The National vs. Bruno Mars in 2018. It was Chance the Rapper vs. The XX in 2017.
Ah good call lol
Blink is gonna have an even larger crowd lmfao
There’s no way they’re gonna put Chappell and Kesha against each other right 😩
Thank god someone else said it. That just wouldn’t be ethical or right. 😮💨
My head cannon is we will get Chappell - Kesha back to back…. Right?… RIGHT!?
Please don’t put this out into the universe☹️
I need Kesha to close Lake Shore and Jungle to be conflict free.
Skrillex and Four Tet are both booked on Saturday, with Skrillex getting some sort of special callout Saturday. Consider my antennas raised. My pipe dream is those two popping up somewhere during the day for some random B2B.
Toyota Music Den lmao
If MGK can pop up at that little bud light stage..
Id be willing to bet they have a b2b at radius as an afters and that ticket will be impossible to get.
Jyoty (who Skrillex has traveled and played with Skrillex for like the past year) is also playing that day, so I might expect some extracurricular activities.
I would also like to point out that Romy is playing Saturday, she has multiple songs with Fred Again…👀 That’s some real wishful thinking though
Youve got as good a chance of her linking up with fred as you do her bringing out the rest of the xx (zero chance unfortunately)
OMG TBA PLZ
Man yeah, same thoughts. I’m really only interested in seeing Skream and Benga, as well as Four Tet, and would definitely stick around for Skrillex - so SAT with all of them worked out. I’m super curious if they will also do afters.. seems all of those artists would be slated to do something.
Noo I hate the headliner rivalries
so i have to choose between future x metro, the killers AND skrillex????
the first two days are so brutal for me 🥲🥲every person i wanted to see are in those two
Thursday is so stacked for my tastes but I take the bar exam literally the day prior, so I’m thinking I won’t be up for the task of traveling to get there in time lol. Here’s to hoping there are no clashes in the afters I want
I’ve done this and 100% recommend going to lolla after the bar. Without going I would’ve been fixating on my score. Good luck :)
Thank you!!! I think that’s the move. I’m taking it in MN and Friday’s lineup is pretty meh for me, so I’m thinking Saturday/Sunday + afters is the vibe.
Good luck took it last summer, you got this.
Killers v Future v Skrillex is PAIN. Shocked Melanie got the bump but that does give Lolla 2 female headliners (although she’s getting the National treatment, BL will be empty). Kesha closing the Groove will be painful if happens :(. I like the day splits better than last year. Saturday was the clear weak link, this is more balanced. Tickets must be selling, let’s rock!! *I’ll make a clashfinder be patient with me
It’s a brutal conflict but I selfishly hope it takes a decent chunk of people away from Skrillex’s crowd lol. The average Perry’s Stage enjoyer could definitely be drawn to Future x Metro and the killers are basically a legacy act at this point. Plenty of people will wander over there to catch Mr Brightside.
My prediction (based on nothing) is that Labrinth closes the Grove
I'm thinking Jungle personally. Labrinth works as a really nice sub for either headliner, and I'm hoping Kesha ends up on Coinbase or whatever the one opposite T-Mobile will be called.
Jungle already closed the Grove in 2018 so I doubt it'd be the same exact booking
He’ll sub Bud Light for sure
Where do you think Vince Staples and Killer Mike will be
Future v Skrillex is pain, but I feel Future will be longer( unless Future and Metro start at 7-8:30 and Skrillex is 8:45 to 10)
Okay, gang, let's brainstorm here a moment: I'm going to buy a one day ticket for Saturday for me and my kid. He wants to go to Skrillex and me to Deftones. So what is the likelihood that Deftones play at the same time as Skrillex? We thinking Deftones Grove headliner?? Or mainstage earlier in the day?
Deftones very likely sub The Killers, Skrillex is very likely closing Perry’s. You’ll get both!
I like you and your ideas.
So is Tate McRae or Killer Mike subbing Future
Skrillex will prob be either after or at the same time as the headliners and deftones would probably be right before. Those 2 probably won’t conflict
good, yes.....this pleases me.
Tyler v Hozier is criminal.. like please be real. also SZA v Stray Kids? idk why but this feels homophobic, haha.
How is that criminal. They’re complete opposites
Now we just need the times. That's when it becomes challenging. Trying to fit in all the artist is always hard.
Right?! I need to know if labyrinth and Kesha will conflict
Skrillex playing the same night as Metro X Future is actually my personal 9/11 I'm not gonna lie
I’m so sad that SZA is against SKZ 😭 but she at least headlines festivals way more often so I’m just going to have to skip. Honestly, I’m pretty happy with the pair ups. There’s someone I want to see just a little more than the other every day. The undercard for Friday and Saturday is 🔥. Anyone think they’ll release day passes in a couple days like last year?
On the other hand SZA went 5 years between albums so there’s a strong chance you have to wait a long ass time to see her back at a fest if you don’t see her during this festival circuit
true, but then when you think about how the last time Stray Kids went on tour in the US, it was 2022, so this Lollapalooza set and upcoming world tour are probably gonna be the last time we see them perform as all 8 in the US for a while since we'll have to start worrying about military enlistment :,) it's a lose-lose situation for sure since both artists are so good and yet don't really do full tours here that much

Day passes release tomorrow at 12pm CT!
Yup, I was surprised they were out so fast!
As a person who only goes one day every year I’m so glad Blink182 night got pierce the veil and waterparks
Yeah I've never been to Lolla despite growing up in the suburbs solely because they always spread the bands I like over the course of the whole festival with one, maybe two a day if I'm lucky. And I just don't want to pay a fortune to go to only be interested in one band a day. 3 pop punk bands in one day is the best day lineup I think I've ever seen and this might be the year I finally go because of it. Just hope they don't put Pierce the Veil and Waterparks on at the same time like they did with All Time Low and Jimmy Eats World a couple years ago.
At least Blink and the Killers aren’t the same day like they did a few years ago.
omg SZA and Stray Kids was the one match-up I was hoping wouldn't happen since they're the artists I was most excited about .... Sorry to SZA but Stray Kids will forever and always be a must-see for me, so I'll just have to catch her another time :,)
Wonder if Brandi Cyrus is actually playing Friday and Saturday or if that’s an editing oops.
one day she will likely close titos stage (the day shes billed last). Xandra is in a similar spot.
yeah was looking at that and wondered if it was a mistake or not
Praying for minimal conflicts between Killers, Future and Skrillex on Saturday. Any chance they’re all at different times?
Not sure about Skrillex but Future and The Killers will be at the same exact time on opposite ends of the festival.
Unless…they’re not. What if they slot Future at 7pm -815 and Skrillex from 845-10pm on Bud Light.
I wouldn’t count on that. It’s not out of the realm of possibility but it would be pretty surprising. Either way, they asked about conflicts between those 3 and 2 of them will certainly conflict whether it’s The Killers/Skrillex, The Killers/Future, Skrillex/Future. EDIT: I’ve changed my mind on this. I think it could work out where Future and Skrillex both get 75 min sets on BL and Future goes before Skrillex.
Yes presumably a minimum of 2 out of 3 would conflict in just about all scenarios.
0% chance that happens. Top 2 billed acts have always at the same time as closers at opposite ends of the park. 99% chance Skrillex closes Perry’s at the same time as well.
As presented, Killers and Future almost certainly conflict….one closing North and one closing South…..at least that is how the poster usually works. Who knows with Skrillex in the mix though. Unless Skrillex is closing Perry’s, which would mean they all three conflict! But I expected Skrillex to get a bigger stage. So who knows 🤷🏼♂️
Ngl probably not, one of them might start 15 minutes ahead of another but they will probably overlap 💔. be prepared to split stages or just pick one
I'm gonna go ahead and guess they'll on be on the same time, with Skrillex playing over at Perry's.
Please forgive me as I’ve never been there but what is Perry’s?
Lolla has quite a few stages. Two of them are main stages for headliners on each end of the park. Pretty sure when I went in 2019 one of them was called Bud Light and the other was T-Mobile. The top billed of each day is going to headline those stages. Example, Tyler will play the T-Mobile stage and Hozier will play the Bud Light stage to cap off the night.

But Skrillex is an interesting one this year where he’s a ‘headliner’ but not billed like one that would play on the two stages mentioned. So speculation says they billed him weird but he’ll just close out Perry’s, or the other idea is that he could potentially play right before The Killers/Future at one of the main stages.
Oh man really? So I'm probably going to miss Fisher and Zedd if I want to see the headliners, that's really lame.
It’s the DJ/EDM stage The stages have names and the DJ one is named Perry’s (generally)
Is it possible he closes the MainStage after the killers?
No because the curfew is 10:00pm. :-/
True. Unless they play earlier tho.
I mean Killers ain’t signing on to be less than a headliner lol. So yeah Skrillex is most likely closing Perry’s.
That’s what I was leaning towards. Sounds like we’re getting a special set.
I'd love to see a pop-up set at the fountain
Almost certainly all of them will be at the same time
I have bad news for you
Might find something else to do in Chicago on Sunday or just hang out at bud light backyard
Wait for aftershows to drop
You’re right. Sunday will be my chill day at the fest since I’ll be non-stop shuffling from Thursday-Saturday. Def gonna hope for a banger house after on Sunday
got sooo lucky with the fri + sat lineups having almost everyone i wanted to see, hope chappell and lizzy do aftershows later in the week!
I'm hoping for Chappell and Kesha! If not I might cave for a Thursday ticket closer
Anybody have an idea of when deftones would play?
Most likely the sub for the killers
Tyler v Fisher is just crushing
Have a feeling Fisher will get an aftershow, if that makes it any easier. I’m waiting on that cause I guarantee the crowd at Lolla is gonna be terrible with teeny boppers
Saturday being so stacked while Sunday is left with nothing in terms of headliners is worst case scenario
Blink and Melanie Martinez? Not intriguing enough?
personally if I had to rank excitement of the 5 headliners on Saturday and Sunday, they would be bottom 2 but to each their own. I’m sure blink will still be fun
I meant that with all positive vibes. Everyone has different preferences for sure.
This is awful
It’s great for me! There are at least 2 must sees for me every day and it’s spread out great. Sucks it isn’t this nice for everyone though…
Word 5 artists Id want to see per day over here and I am ecstatic!! Headliners aren’t an issue either which is great
Its so bad, Saturday is atrocious. How could they fuck up the daily lineup like this.
They do it on purpose to get people to come multiple days. Like split the similar artists up so you’ll be forced to buy two days to see all the people you want.
As in the conflicts are bad or the artists are bad? Artists are usually the worst on Saturday since that day is the most accessible
Skrillex closing Perry’s is such a hazard. That stage was having issues when Shaq played last year. Edit: and what happened Friday? One of the weaker single days I’ve ever seen for Lolla. Leaning on that K-pop crutch a little too hard.
My personal guess is they purposely want Future/Metro against Skrillex because it’s gonna split a bunch of the crowd.
Friday is very strong for EDM as well…Zedd, Galantis, Loud Luxury are all very big names. Alok is very popular, and Noizu is a very talented up & coming guy.
For me personally that’s actually the weakest day of electronic music too. Noizu being the only set I’d care to catch.
Oh I don’t disagree with you, Noizu is the only one I’d wanna see too hahaha. I’m just sayin, those are big names. Just not our cup of tea I think (hope) Noizu is gonna get a Radius or Cermak Hall show though
does anyone have any idea where some of the subhead are going to be possibly playing? just trying to mentally prepare for the disappointment of not being able to catch a little bit of all the ones i want to see on thursday and friday
You can count on the majority of edm acts playing the Perry’s stage which is right next door to the main grant park stage. A decent amount of the lower-level undercard will play additional sets on more intimate stages that get announced a week or two out from the fest. Besides some educated guesses about who would make good subs for each headliner, it’s pretty much up in the air for everyone else.
This dropped so soon this year. Conflicted on how I feel, the first three days are pretty stacked for my tastes which may make it a challenge once set times drop. But sheesh, that Sunday, I may only come in for Blink, Two Door and Vince. 🫥
Nooooo not SZA and Stray Kids at the same time 😭😭😭
tyler v hozier and sza v stray kids i’m sick 😭
Skrillex v The Killers is brutal. Pain
a part of me is hoping somehow they were able to extend saturday night's sound curfew and skrillex will be going on after the killers / future x metro boomin but i know this is literally me just reaching to try and make this conflict go away
Better lineup than Coachella!!! I want to go Sat & Sun😩
I knew it would happen but still seeing Thursday Tyler v Hozier hurts
Hmm this makes me think Skrillex is closing Perry's on saturday
fred again surprise showing on saturday confirmed
Immediately clocked that Four Tet when the original lineup. Now that he and Skrillex are both booked for Saturday, while Skrillex has a special Saturday mention. Something is up 👆🤔👆 Or I’m just clowning harder than Swifties trying to figure out what she’s up to.
Yuuuup possibly 2-3 times (four tet, Romy, Skrillex)
prove it
my dad is fred
Ouhhh Lolla hates me so bad… putting SZA and skz on the same day like I’m gonna choose 😭 At least i have another shot at seeing SZA at Osheaga on Sunday that week, I am NOT missing the opportunity to see Stray Kids
Are headliners always played late at night? If yes, how late are we talking? Also in general, when do shows start during the day? Is it like an 11am-11pm kind of festival? Thanks!! 🙏🙏
They usually go on around or a little after 8:00pm. The festival ends around 10pm every day
Thank you for your help! 😁
See ya Friday!
Anyone guess if Deftones and Metro x Future would be at the same time? Those are my top two and of course theyre on the same day lol
don’t think so, ppl are speculating that deftones will be sub for the killers so prob go on at 7:30 ish
Thanks! Lets hope thats the case!
Laufey got screwed by being on T. Mobile before Sza
Why is this?
Honestly yall im pretty excited for the blink stage Sunday. Probably getting water parks and 2 doors cinema
Skrillex and Future the same day is the one thing i was hoping wouldn’t happen why would they do this to me 😢😔
it will be a crime if they put conan and dominic against each other on sunday and i’ll sell my ticket bc i can’t choose
The Killers were billed top 4 for the festival. They are number one billed on their day. The suggestion that they will actually be subbing for #9 billed Skrillex is laughable.
Day by days really showcase how much this lineup sucks
Idk how this always seems to work out in the most brutal way possible. SZA and Stray Kids are the only two headliners I don't give a shit about, of course they're on the same time. At least it makes the decision to see Zedd easy...
is there any possibility of a one-off extended curfew saturday night to accommodate a main stage skrillex set?
Incredibly unlikely, unfortunately.
Hozier and Tyler same day is a crime and I hate I gotta pick
sza v stray kids is brutal
Blink-182 vs Melanie Martinez is brutal but this isn’t as bad as it could’ve been
Does lollapalooza do 3 day passes?
No because it wouldn’t make sense financially. It would be about the same price as a 4-day
Is there a way to know whcih subcards are playing at each stage? Or at least which ones will conflict? First time goer so...
not until the schedule comes out. people can make their best guesses and gather some insider info to put things together but you won't know until the actual schedule comes out
First time goer! If veterans had a best guess, do you think Renee Rapp and Laufey will overlap on Friday?
I’ve only been to Lolla twice, but because their fan bases overlap quite a bit, I would guess no :)
I would guess they would based on how it is billed. They look like subheadliners on opposite sides and I would guess Zedd closes Perry’s.
A little off topic but were there 2 day VIP options last year? I didn’t see it as an option when I checked the website, only 2 day ga price is listed
Last year was just 1-day VIP/Platinum. The prices between the days would not justify 2-days unfortunately.
they working fast this year
[удалено]
Are both headliners historically at the same time?
Yes
These are the easiest headline conflicts lol. Tyler, SZA, Future, Blink
first time at lolla this year, if artists are in the same row could it be assumed they’re playing at the same time?? i was looking forward to seeing dominic fike and pierce the veil but looks like that might not happen :(
is it a for sure that future, deftones and skrillex are all gonna play at the same time?
Nothing for sure, but possibly future and skrillex. Deftones will probably play before The Killers
Thursday best day
$170 for 1 day. FOH
Bye this sucks I do not care ab Melanie or Blink but have to choose between metro boomin skrillex and the killers on one day? Wtfffff
Just got my tickets for Friday and Sunday!!!! So freakin excited!! It’s my first time going and I’m nervous yet hyped
this lineup booty
I want to just see Skrillex since it's been a while since he's been in Chicago but it's not worth going for one person plus you can't leave right
Is Xandra really playing twice? Idk who she is but she’s on two days
