Lollapalooza Unveils 2018 Lineup
Summer will be here before we know it and that means we have to prepare for days on the beach, having fun all day and summer music festivals. Coachella, Bonnaroo and Governors Ball have already amazed us with their lineups but Lollapalooza made us wait a little bit longer and enhance our excitement to the max.
Lollapalooza has finally announced its 2018 schedule and let me tell you guys, it was worth waiting. The main headliners Bruno Mars, The Weeknd, Jack White, ODESZA, Vampire Weekend and Travis Scott are followed by Khalid, Post Malone, Dua Lipa, Tyler, the Creator, Zedd, Daniel Caesar, Lykke Li, Brockhampton and many more.
Don’t miss this amazing lineup and buy your tickets right away.
Lollapalooza will take place over a 4-day weekend from 2 to 5 August in Chicago’s Grant Park. The festival was conceived and created in 1991 by a singer Perry Farrell who will appear as a special performer this year. His project Kind Heaven will feature an all-star cast of musicians to premier music from Farrell’s upcoming solo album. The festival ran annually until 1997 and was revived in 2003. It features popular alternative rock, heavy metal, punk rock, hip hop and electronic music bands and artists, dance and comedy performers.
The Weekend reportedly dropped out of Lollapalooza last year because he wasn’t happy with his billing on the poster but this year he will make up for it. English rockers Arctic Monkeys have a long history with the Lollapalooza since their first appearance at the fest in 2009. With a new album on their way, they will use the Chicago performance to promote it. Thanks to the “Rocktar” and collaboration with 21 Savage, Post Malone is in the upper reaches of not only Lollapalooza but also of Coachella and Governors Ball. Triple Grammy winner for Album of the Year, Song of the Year and Record of the Year, Bruno Mars is a cherry on the top of the cake.
Last year’s lineup featured The Killers, Muse and Blink-182. The 2016 was the festivals’ 25th anniversary and the lineup included Lana Del Ray, Radiohead, the Red Hot Chili Peppers and J. Cole.
