]]>Lollapalooza 2019 will take place August 1-4 at the Grant Park in Chicago. Organizers of this highly-anticipated festival really outdid themselves this year and managed to attract some of the biggest names on rock, pop, hip-hop, EDM and country scene.
If you’re not impressed by the four headliners, the last of the lineup will get the job done. The list of performers at the upcoming Lollapalooza festival is pretty much endless, and it features the likes of Tame Impala, J Balvin, Kacey Musgraves, and Janelle Monáe.
You’ve probably noticed parallels between this year’s Coachella and Lollapalooza lineups, but as it’s already too late to get the tickets for the first festival, if you’re hoping to see some of the same acts in one place, Lollapalooza is your best shot – but act fast, because it’s just a matter of time before the tickets are sold out.

If you still haven’t bought your ticket – it’s already too late. They all sold out in the matter of six hours, and it took only 40 minutes to sell out general admission passes for the first weekend.
They may not be bringing Beyoncé back, but Coachella still managed to attract a series of grade-A performers. Ariana Grande and Childish Gambino both broke new grounds in 2018 with their hit singles “Thank U, Next” and “This Is America” – but so did some of the other artists who will perform at 2019 Coachella.
The lineup also features the likes of Janelle Monáe,

As the summertime sun blazes down and his favorite song plays through the headphones, the rapper casually checks out all the drama that takes place along the way.
Each scene in “Feels Like Summer” is a clear reference to a real-life event. Some of the most notable scenes include Michelle Obama comforting Kanye West and Travis Scott knocking down a tower of building blocks that Nicki Minaj put together.
The list of celebrity cameos in this video is pretty much endless. It includes everyone from A$AP Rocky and Solange to Drake and Pusha T. It’s a perfect way to wrap this summer up… By watching a full recap of the happenings in the music industry that took place in the last few months.
