Festival season is upon us. While Coachella gets most of the attention, Lollapalooza’s 2026 lineup is one for the ages. Headliners include Charli XCX, Tate McRae, and Lorde, plus the Smashing Pumpkins, John Summit, Jennie, Olivia Dean, and the xx. There are plenty of buzzy names below the fold, too, including Turnstile, Wet Leg, Zara Larsson, and Clipse. 

At a Glance: Where to Buy Lollapalooza Tickets

The four-day festival spans July 30 through Aug. 2 in Chicago’s Grant Park. Tickets have largely sold since going on sale in March, while others are only available on a waitlist basis. Sunday is the only day that is fully available on Lollapalooza’s site. If you’re looking to buy tickets to Lollapalooza, your best bet will be to brave the waitlist or try resale sites, which still have tickets available for multiday or single-day tickets.

Lollapalooza marks some big returns and reunions. It’s the first time the Smashing Pumpkins have played Lolla in the U.S. since 1994, and one of only two appearances planned for the Pumpkins this year. It’s also one of a few major stops this year for the xx, who performed together in Mexico City for the first time in eight years on April 4. This is also the only major live performance in North America for Charli XCX this year. 

Where to Buy Lollapalooza Tickets

If you’re looking to buy sold-out Lollapalooza tickets, your options include joining the waitlist or buying resale from Lollapalooza’s official resale ticketing partner, TicketExchange by Ticketmaster.
