Lollapalooza was founded by Perry Farrell in 1991 and initially entertained the public as a touring festival. The festival has remained a staple in any music fan’s calendar and has led the way in live entertainment for over 30 years. The festival has now branched out all over the world and in 2005 made its home in Chicago. The recent expansion joins the long list of cities that host the annual event including Chile, Argentina, Germany, Brazil, France and Sweden.
The global festival is regarded a trailblazer within the live music and festival event fields. It was the first festival to intertwine musical genres in their lineups, include multiple dates, have a second stage and showcase electronic music acts on the main stage. Lollapalooza is considered a forerunner for holding festivals in cities and has spearheaded the city experience with locations across the globe. Outside of music, the festival has also made its mark on challenging the big issues. Lollapalooza was the first festival to combine the arts with activism and to counterbalance its carbon omissions.
The festival’s dedication to the planet is clearly evident and next year is no different. The festival’s website provides further information concerning their initiative, Lollaplanet. “At the heart of Lolla Paris’ commitment since day one, Lolla Planète is committed to the planet … and its inhabitants: alongside associations which each year raise awareness among festival-goers about sustainability and environmental issues, Lolla Planète will give a voice to those who fight for the rights of everyone. So you will find throughout the year a special program developed in collaboration with Label Emmaüs, a key player in the ecological and inclusive digital transition. Among the various activities of Lolla Planète to inform and learn in an interactive way, we will find in particular times of exchanges and workshops with Morgane Ortin, author and creator of Amours Solitaires who acts alongside the association En Avant All.”
The Paris festival is produced by founder Perry Farrell, William Morris Endeavor Entertainment, Live Nation France and C3 Presents. This year the event would have celebrated its 30th anniversary. However, due to COVID-19 restrictions, the festival was postponed until next year.
