Lollapalooza Expands to 4 Days in 2016

America’s largest rock music festival is getting even bigger.

Lollapalooza in Chicago will expand to four days in 2016 to mark its 25th anniversary, according to the Chicago Tribune and other reports.

In 2016, the festival will begin on Thursday, July 28 and run thru Sunday, July 31 in Grant Park.

As the number of days grows, so will the prices. A four-day general admission pass will cost $355 compared to the three-day pass that has been offered for $275. The cost of a one-day ticket will also rise, from $110 to $120.

Texas-based C3 Presents has a lease with the city of Chicago for the festival to be held through 2021, but a spokesman for the company has said discussions have not taken place about making the jump to four days permanent.

A booking agent said more than 1,500 “credible” band submissions have shown interest in the 2016 festivities, and about 170 are expected to be part of the expanded party.

The lineup, and ticket sale information, will be announced in the spring.
