If your looking to buy resell. keep checking everyday.

I just got a 4 day GA for 389 before fees. As long as you keep checking consistently you can get a ticket for around lolla price. I used ticketmaster exchange.

Amtrak or Metra from MKE/Kenosha to Lollapalloza?

Heading to Lollapalooza from Waukesha, WI for 1 day and deciding between driving to Kenosha to use Metra (we have at other times, but not during Lolla) or catching the Amtrak Hiawatha to Union Station.

I know Amtrak is more expensive, but is the extra money worth knowing we’ll have a seat and will it be less crowded?

We are staying downtown Chicago for one night, so won’t be on either option at night after the festival.

How crowded is Stray Kids gonna be?

I'm debating whether to go or not- never been before. I live in California and I'd only be going there to see them so I'm trying to decide if it's worth it. Most importantly I know it's gonna be crowded af, I only like concerts if I'm close enough to see them on stage though because if I have to watch the screen I might as well just watch from home. I'm not willing to camp out all day but I'd be fine waiting for 2-3 hours. Do you guys think since it's such a popular group, fangirls are gonna take all the close-enough-to-view-stage-spots the minute the gates open in the morning?

Lolla Berlin First Timer

Hello guys! I am going to Lollapalooza for the first time this September in Berlin and I am a little confused about the tickets. I received an email informing be about the possibility of upgrading it to either VIP or VIP Comfort (which has significantly less benefits). I am only going for Seventeen, so I am interested in getting a good view. My question is whether the comfort upgrade ensures me a good viewing experience. I feel like they mentioned many tribunes in the benefits but I am confused and afraid of misinterpretation. So I thought that maybe someone who has been before can give me some insights, thanks 😊

Wait list odds?

What are the odds of actually being able to snag a Friday ticket? Was waiting to sort out some scheduling and then they sold out. Last year I did a 4 day, so I paid no mind to the others.

questions about walking the festival :)

hello! first timer here!

this might be a bit of a weird question that nobody really had the answer to, but does anyone with prior experience happen to know about how much walking you do per day? i know it will obviously be different for everyone, but was looking for a bit of a rough estimate! my pals and i are planning to start taking hikes / long walks to get some practice in for walking the fest and i was wanting to see what the average amount of walking was ! thanks so much in advance!

Hotels By O’Hare

I’m looking at booking hotels, and it seems the best deals are out by O’Hare. I know it’s a bit far by train, but has anyone stayed out there and would you recommend it?

Jungle Lolla Setlist

I’m most excited to see jungle at lolla. This is the first time I’ll see them on a bigger stage, so I am hoping for a little more than the last set I seen. Do you guys think that the set list will be the same as the one they did on tour? I’m hoping not simply for the fact I want to hear more variety in their songs. I’d love to hear more of the earlier songs to experience their entire sound vs just the most recent album. I love it, I just feel it’s more of a mixtape with jungle as the Djs vs Jungle’s 2018-2021 sound.

What do you guys think?

Tips for first time?

Hello everyone, I’m celebrating being done with a horrible personal situation with lollapalooza tickets! That being said, I don’t have a lot of experience with lollapalooza, so I’d appreciate any and all advice! I’ll also be lurking around the subreddit for helpful tips.

I would appreciate any and all tips including financial tips, ticket buying, hotels, songs to listen to before the concert, and anything i can do to prepare for it.

I plan to buy a 4-day GA+ Pass this Monday. Would that be the best choice considering VIP is most likely something I can’t afford.

Selling 2 day ticket not possible?

My friend is bailing on me for lolla and he has a thur+fri 2 day tickets. There's no option to resell on his account. Is this not a feature or do we have to wait for all 2 day tickets to sell out?

Lollapalooza Truly is an Insane Value

Just wanted to say how much of an insane value this festival is. I paid $450 for a resale ticket for all 4 days. That sounds like a lot, but that’s less than I paid for a single GA ticket for Green Day and Slipknot this summer ($492 those two combined).

Going solo, this is my 2nd time and staying at the HI Hostel. I was on the fence because the first time in 2022 didn’t go great, but now knowing more about it and having experienced it once already, I’ll definitely have way more fun! See ya there!

Stub hub tickets

I just got tickets on stub hub and it says they won’t be here until July 31st. Are they normally sent on time? I am just a worrier and I will let it consume me. So I just want some reassurance

Selling tix on the ticket exchange

Hello! I have 2, 4 day GA passes that I need to sell as something has come up. I’m curious if anyone has any thoughts on the ticket exchange vs stub hub for resale? If I sell them on the ticket exchange, will the wristbands still get mailed to me, meaning I’d then have to mail them out, or is that all taken care of?

Thanks!

Is it safe to go alone as a teen

Im thinking about going to the festival this August but idk if it would be safe to go alone, im a 14 year old boy and ill be almost 15 by the time the festival happens but idk if my family would be able to afford 4 day let alone 1 day tickets for all of us. My birthday is in august so i want to ask for a 4 day for an early present but i would probably have to go alone. So if i were to get one and be able to go would i be able to get in alone as a 14 year old and would it be safe?

Will I be able to see both zedd and sza?

I’ve never been to lolla so I’m not sure how things work with people closing out stages and all that.

Caved and added another day

Breaking through the noise about waitlists with a positive post. I’m now going 3 days!!!!

Going to Lolla for the first time solo this year! Originally bought Fri & Sat GA last month after I fell in love w Renee Rapp lol. Decided on the weekend cause she and Raye play Fri, got the Killers and TV Girl on Sat, and a ton of artists I’m excited to check out rounding it out. Well I keep seeing Chappel Roan on TikTok and she’s fucking spectacular, then I realized Hozier, Kesha, Benson Boone all performing Thursday and it’s like… I can’t fumble this opportunity.

So I just bought Thu GA too!!! This will be my first real vacation in years, first festival, but I’ve been to many concerts. I’m stoked to explore and broaden my music interests!! Keeping my fingers crossed for everyone on Fri waitlist! Hope those of you dying to see Renee and Stray Kids (and any others ofc) land tickets 🙏🏼

If any others are going solo and hitting these artists, feel free to say hi!

IS TYLER PLAYING TWICE?

I really wanted to see Tyler the Creator, but I also love Hozier...I've seen many people say they'll be headlining at the same time. I saw this on my Spotify today, and now I'm wondering if he's doing two shows in the same day. Can anyone confirm or deny?

Lolla Friday waitlist

I need someone to be so honest with me, I joined the Friday 1 day GA waitlist Apr 26th, how bad are my chances of getting approved, I’ve never been to lolla and this would be my first time, not sure how quickly the waitlist goes.

Question

I'm going with a friend and plan on going early and staying at the same place. If I have to go to the bathroom by myself and my friend stays where they are, would people let me back in or would I just be screwed? Or since the crowd may change between acts I shouldn't worry too much?

Platinum viewing- Worth it?

Hi friends! I’ve never gone to lolla and I’m curious if platinum tickets are worth it. Has anyone gone years prior and can share insight or maybe pictures on what platinum viewing is like for the other stages? thanks :-)
