Lollapalooza is coming to Time Out Market Chicago.

In collaboration with Diskonect and Third Eye Hospitality, the food and culture hub in Fulton Market is transforming into a three-level music venue and hosting an official Lollapalooza afterparty on Thursday, August 1. From 9pm to 2am, attendees are invited to groove to the tunes of Chicago icons while enjoying small bites from some of the city's best restaurants.

In celebration of 40 years since the birth of house on Chicago’s South Side, the Market will be filled with the high tempos and recognizable beats of electronic dance music and hip hop.

The afterparty will feature sets by Chicago natives Vic Mensa, Felix Da Housecat and NEZ.

Vic Mensa is a Grammy-nominated rapper from Chicago who has worked with notable artists like Ye, Jay-Z, Pharrell Williams and more.

Felix Da Housecat, a Grammy-nominated artist and house pioneer, is an icon of the electronic music scene in Chicago and around the world.

NEZ, also a Grammy-nominated multi-hyphenate, has collaborated with the likes of Schoolboy Q, A$AP Rocky and Travis Scott. 

"The DNA of Chicago house has always resonated with me," said NEZ, who performed at Lollapalooza in 2021. "The minimalism, stripped down elements, the bass lines, and the chords had a big impact on how I produce. 

Lollapalooza returns to Grant Park next weekend, August 1-4. The annual summer music festival will host international talent over four days and is estimated to bring in over 400,000 attendees. This year’s headliners include Megan Thee Stallion, SZA, The Killers, Blink-182 and more. Chicago’s best eats are sprinkled into the festival, too—food vendors this year include Harold’s Chicken, The StopAlong and the Original Rainbow Cone, as well as many other beloved local favorites.

Tickets, starting at $20 for general admission and $65 for VIP, are on sale here.
