Where to Watch Lollapalooza?
If you can’t make it to Grant Park, Hulu is once again the exclusive home for streaming select performances from the Chicago festival. Subscribers can watch live sets, interviews, and backstage content through the Hulu app and website during all four days of Lollapalooza. Hulu usually announces the streaming lineup a few days before the festival, and streaming is available to both standard and premium subscribers.
A curated selection of shows is available for replay shortly after their live broadcast, letting viewers catch up if they miss their favorite act. There’s also abundant coverage on social media platforms, especially TikTok, Instagram, and X (Twitter), where artists and attendees regularly share snippets from the festival.
Lollapalooza Aftershows
Aftershows are a longstanding Lollapalooza tradition, giving fans a chance to catch more intimate performances throughout Chicago's venues once the main festival grounds close for the night. The 2025 lineup includes artists like Djo, Glass Beams, Gigi Pérez, Barry Can't Swim, and Fujii Kaze, along with Magdalena Bay, Cage the Elephant, and FINNEAS. Tickets for these aftershows are sold separately and often sell out quickly.
Aftershows are typically scheduled from Wednesday, July 30, until Sunday, August 3, with most events starting at 10 p.m. or later and spread across clubs and theaters throughout the city.
According to lollapalooza, "$1 from every Aftershow ticket will support youth arts and education programs across the city, helping to empower Chicago’s next generation of artists and music industry leaders."
