LOLLAPALOOZA PARIS. The Parisian version of the Lollapalooza festival returned this weekend for a fifth edition, over three days, at the ParisLongchamps racecourse.

[Mis à jour le 23 juillet 2023 à 12h08] The fifth edition of the Lollapalooza festival keeps all its promises. After an explosive first evening marked by the performances of violinist Lindsey Stirling, Belgian rapper Damso, but also (and above all?), the phenomenon group of South Korean rap, Stray Kids, which closed this first evening of celebration, in front of a hysterical crowd, the atmosphere did not fall for the second evening of festivities.

Saturday evening on the lawns of the ParisLonchamps racecourse, we will long remember the huge crowd massed for the two unmissable headliners of the evening, Lil Nas X and Rosalía. The American singer and performer wowed the public with impeccable scenography and dancers, when the Spanish singer gave a live lesson, excelling in singing and dancing. This Sunday, are expected for the last evening of Lollapalooza: Aya NakamuraKendrick Lamar or OneRepublic.

The story of Lollapalooza

The Lollapalooza festival was created in 1991 by Perry Farrel, the leader of the band Jane’s Addiction. The event has established itself on the American continent as the benchmark rock, punk and heavy metal festival, with editions in the United States, Brazil, Argentina, Chile and Berlin. The festival is bought by LiveNation, a multinational considered to be the biggest organizer of musical events in the world. In France, the American company already organizes three festivals, the Main Square from Arras, I Love Tech of Montpellier and the DownloadFestival of Paris, created in 2016. “Live Nation wanted to continue to develop its activity on festivals in France” assured Angelo Gopee who does not however speak of competition.

“I’m not sure that the Old plowsnor even SolidaysWe Love Green, Rock in the Seine bring in artists like David Guetta, Calvin Harris or Ariana Grande” he defends himself before deciding: “Between all these festivals, there is a place for us, with artists that we are the only ones able to offer”. 120,000 spectators a day in Chicago every summer,” he explains.
