History

Founded in 1991 by Perry Farrell, the lead singer of Jane's Addiction, Lollapalooza began as a farewell tour for his band. Its overwhelming success led to it becoming an annual event. In 2010, Lollapalooza expanded beyond the United States, debuting in Santiago. A year later, São Paulo hosted the first Brazilian version, followed by expansions to Buenos Aires and Berlin in the subsequent two years.
