The Popular music festival turns 25!
In celebration of 25 years as a world-renowned music festival, Lollapalooza is excited to announce an additional full day of music programming for the 2016 edition in Chicago’s beautiful Grant Park, which will feature more than 170 musical performances over four days.
“It’s our 25th Anniversary and we wanted to do something really
special and different for our fans. There’s a lot of really great music
coming out in 2016; with the abundance of talent that wanted to help us
celebrate 25 years we got to thinking…‘How are we going to fit all
those great artists in one weekend?’ Then we thought about what a
special day Thursday has become. When the party can’t wait for the
weekend, the movers and shakers make it happen on Thursday! So, we’ve
put together an entire additional day of music to celebrate our
milestone year. It’s going to be a fantastic party!” said Lollapalooza
founder, Perry Farrell.
Lollapalooza 2016 will take place Thursday, July 28 and continue through Sunday, July 31. Four-day General Admission tickets will be available for $335 (including fees) and single day General Admission tickets will be available for $120 (including fees) beginning Spring 2016.

Abrams join forces to take you back again to a galaxy far, far away as Star Wars returns to the big screen with Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

![]() Now Playing at the Chicago Shakespeare Theater Staged by Tony Award®-winning director John Rando, this cheeky romp is another hilarious retooling of a classic from acclaimed playwright David Ives, creator of CST’s wildly popular The School for Lies and A Flea in Her Ear. Young Eraste has it all—good looks, a beautiful fiancĂ©e and the prospect of a sizable inheritance from an elderly uncle. There’s just one snag: the uncle won’t die and he has bequeathed his entire fortune to someone else. |
