Lollapalooza 2025 attendees and online fans have spoken: Perry’s Stage delivered a standout electronic music experience this year, with Martin Garrix’s set at the center of praise. Despite early skepticism over Perry’s stage size and production quality, the actual show shattered doubts.
Reddit discussions highlighted the exceptional use of fireworks, pyrotechnics, and lasers that elevated Garrix’s performance, proving Perry’s can hold its own against the festival’s bigger stages. Users noted that Perry’s sonic clarity and more spacious setup gave high-tempo electronic acts like Garrix and Skrillex room to shine in a way that more crowded stages—such as Bud Light and T-Mobile—cannot match.
The conversation also turned to lineup strategy. While Garrix’s global stardom is unquestionable, some fans debated his relative U.S. draw compared to acts like Rüfüs Du Sol, who took the T-Mobile stage and pulled larger local crowds. This sparked meaningful discussion about how electronic acts are distributed to balance fan flow and genre representation across Lollapalooza’s sprawling footprint.
The community consensus is clear: Perry’s Stage remains Lollapalooza’s flagship electronic venue in 2025, delivering world-class production and atmosphere. Garrix’s strategic placement there—not on Bud Light or T-Mobile—affirmed the festival’s commitment to crafting the best possible environment for top-tier electronic performances.
What’s next?
Fans are now eagerly watching how Lollapalooza will continue to innovate electronic presentations in future editions, with Perry’s Stage setting a new bar for immersive EDM experiences at the festival.
