One of Chicago’s biggest summer festivals is back, and the 2026 Lollapalooza lineup is not to be missed, featuring Charli XCX, The Smashing Pumpkins, Lorde, The XX, and dozens more international artists.
Beyond the music, Lollapalooza offers plenty of interactive brand activations to explore throughout Grant Park. Stop by the Ulta Beauty Beat Suite for complimentary beauty touch-ups and a themed gift bag filled with curated samples. Head to That Tito’s Thing, a 21+ dive bar experience where festivalgoers can enjoy Tito’s cocktails, test their skills on an interactive payphone, and discover surprise giveaways. At Dunkin’ Refresherland, cool off with frozen drinks and photo opportunities, then take in skyline views from the Motorola razr Wheel. For a more laid-back stop, visit Kona Big Wave’s skate park to watch skaters and hang out between sets.
