Lollapalooza Argentina (/ˌlɒləpəˈluːzə/) is an annual Argentinian three-day music festival held in Hipódromo de San Isidro[2] in Buenos Aires. It originally started as an event in 1991 in Chicago, becoming its official argentinian version in 2014. Music genres include alternative rock, heavy metal, punk rock, hip hop, and electronic dance music, also as more local popular genres such as trap and cumbia. Lollapalooza has also featured visual arts, nonprofit organizations, and political organizations. The festival hosts an estimated 300,000 people each March and sells out annually. Lollapalooza is one of the largest and longest-running music festivals in Argentina.
The first edition of the Lollapalooza Argentina festival took place in Buenos Aires on April 1–2, 2014.[3] The artist lineup for this inaugural edition had been announced on November 2, 2013, at the same time the "early bird" tickets went on sale—marking the only time tickets and the lineup were released simultaneously. Both local and international bands performed at the event, which began just after noon and lasted until midnight. Organizers estimated that over 130,000 people attended the venue across the two-day festival.[4] Four stages were set up —Main Stage 1, Main Stage 2, Alternative, and Perry's Stage— offering a variety of musical styles and attracting a diverse crowd. A fifth stage named Kidzapalooza presents a special line-up for children.
Since its 2018 edition, the festival became officially a three-day event, thought the last day had to be cancelled due to heavy rains and massive stage destruction.
Originally, Lollapalooza 2020 was scheduled to take place from March 27 to 29, 2020, but due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it was postponed to November 27–29, 2021. However, in October 2021, the event was postponed once again until 2022. Following the postponements of the event over the previous two years, it was announced that Lollapalooza Argentina 2022 would take place from March 18 to 20, 2022, at the Hipódromo de San Isidro.
Latest edition presented 72 performances, presenting Tyler, the Creator, Turnstile, Lorde, Chappell Roan, Skrillex, Lewis Capaldi, Paulo Londra, Doechii, Deftones and Sabrina Carpenter as headliners in a three-day event held from March 13 to 15 where it has been announced that the following edition will take place at the same location on March 12–14, 2027.[5]
