Lollapalooza is a four-day, world-renowned festival that takes place at Grant Park in Chicago, Illinois. It was created in 1991 (making it one of the oldest festivals in the United States) and has grown tremendously, even taking place in other countries. More than 400,000 people attend annually resulting in continuous sell-outs and massive revenues. The festival has international branches that take place outside the U.S, in countries like Chili, Brazil and Argentina.
The festival actually started as a farewell tour for the band “Jane’s Addiction” spearheaded by frontman Perry Farrell. Following the 1991 farewell tour Farrell kept it running with other bands headlining until 1997. In 2005, Perry Farrell joined forces with Capital Sports Entertainment, a Texas based entertainment company, and restructured the logistical execution into what it is today - a Chicago staple with international chapters.
Chicago is the 5th largest city in North America and often gets overlooked when considering travel, however the city is truly amazing and needs to be experienced. Music fans coming to Chiaco to attend Lollapalooza have 2 main options when deciding their accommodation arrangements. The first is to stay near the O’Hare International Airport, which is a 30 minute drive from festival grounds. This option is best if the attendees have prior obligations and want to be in and out of the city as fast as possible. The second option is what we at BookSeats.com recommend; staying in the heart of downtown Chicago. Only a 5 minute walk to festival grounds, this allows attendees to not only experience everything the festival has to offer, but the city as well. Chicago has a reputation as an international hub for finance, art, culture and technology, and truly shows if you take the time to walk the streets. You’ll be one of almost 60 million annual visitors, so make sure to take in some of the sights. Options include Millenium Park, Navy Pier, the Art Institute of Chicago, Sears Tower, the Lincoln Park Zoo or one of the many fine dining establishments, bars, clubs and restaurants located here. As long as you can dream up an itinerary, Bookseats.com can help you find the hotel based on your personal preferences, just use the available filters to customize and you’re all set!
Funny enough, festival founder Perry Farewell states he got the name while watching the infamous “Three Stooges.” The word is meant to mean “extraordinary impressive”” and we think that’s an accurate description of not only the festival itself, but the growth in which it’s become.
