Lollapalooza
For my first blog I am going to talk about one of my favorite music festivals Lollapalooza! Lolla is held at Grant Park in Chicago, it is 3 day long festival which stars over 100+ bands/ groups and host more than 160,000 people every year, that covers over 115 acres and numbers just keep on increasing as the music industry grows.
My first experience to Lolla was simply but amazing and definitely something that I will remember forever! It washouts just a music festival in my eyes it was also a different cultural experience. There were people all around the world just in one place, and everyone was there all for one reason and it was just to live for the moment and have a kick ass time and this badass concert! Last year Lolla had one of the best Lineup in my opinion that I have seen in a long time, last year I saw some of my favorite artist/ band from: Eminem, Kings of Leon, Arctic Monkeys, Skrillex, Calvin Harris, The Avett Brothers, Foster the People, Zedd<3, Krewella, Cut/ Copy, Duke Dumont, AFI and much more!
Other than the concert being the time of my life. It was a also such a great experience to visit Chicago and see what they all have to offer. The had endless amounts of different kinds of food you could name of (I tried Tai food for the first time) wasn't bad but prob would never eat it again :p
also they had so great amazing shopping and craft booths with all homemade art and that was my favorite! I love looking all the crafts and art that people can come up with it is simply amazing. Although the Lolla tickets maybe a little pricy it is 100% worth every penny I wouldn't take back anything that happened on that trip for anything. Had some of my greatest memories and met some great amazing people that I can't wait to run into this summer again!
Oh and I met Revolution and it was beautiful!!!!
Until we meet again Lolla<3
That sounds like a blast and i'm glad I read this post because I was interested in going this year! In my hometown there is a radio station that was giving away a chance to win tickets to it. How long does this festival usually last? What would you recommend to a first time goer? Such as where to stay, are there many concerts going at once, what is the best part?
ReplyDeleteI am so jealous!! I wanted to go to Lolla so bad last year. I am totally purchasing tickets for it this year. Have you heard anything about the lineup? Oh and do you recommend camping or staying at a hotel.
ReplyDeleteAnother festival you might like is called GrassRoots, its in New York. It's supposed to be super chill and indie.
