Chicago Lineup: Fan Speculation and Comparisons
Although the 2026 Lollapalooza Chicago lineup remains unannounced, discussions have naturally turned to speculation about potential headliners. On Reddit, popular guesses include Lorde as a Bud Light stage headliner and a possible return for Chappell Roan to the T-Mobile stage.
Notably, some fans have contrasted the strong South American headliners with the as-yet-unknown Chicago lineup, calling it a “tough look” for Chicago. However, these comparisons are premature given Chicago’s lineup is still under wraps.
Festival Season Moods: Excitement, Budget Woes, and Hopes
The Reddit thread mixes excitement with humor and realistic budget concerns—one user jokingly admits they hadn’t planned financially for any 2026 festival trips.
Fans also express hope that other popular names, such as Addison Rae, will officially make the cut for Chicago or other Lollapalooza dates.
While official word on Chicago’s lineup isn’t out yet, the South American announcement is setting the stage for a thrilling 2026 festival season. Stay tuned for more updates as they drop.
