Dua Lipa is moved by the music at Ogden Theatre in Denver Feb. 5.

After Lollapalooza’s main schedule, there are plenty of aftershows to dance the night away in Chicago this year. Performers include Chvrches, Dua Lipa, Catfish And The Bottlemen, Carly Rae Jepsen, Walk The Moon, Greta Van Fleet, Rex Orange County and Illenium.

The shows take place over six nights at 16 various venues, starting July 31 with Quinn XCII at Metro, and wrapping up Aug. 5 with Illenium at Concord Music Hall and What So Not + Troyboi at Mid. 

In total there are more than 50 shows with more than 95 artists during the six-day span, including Tycho, Franz Ferdinand, Rebelution, Tank and the Bangas, Alina Baraz, Cigarettes After Sex, Lizzo, A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie, Goldlink, Slaves, and many more.

Venues to host shows include the local House Of Blues, Thalia Hall, Empty Bottle, Park West, and many more. 

These tickets are sold separately from Lolla festival passes and will be available June 1 at 10 a.m. CST. 

Lollapalooza, of course, is one of North America’s destination music events, this year running Aug. 2-5, and featuring Arctic Monkeys, Travis Scott, Khalid, Bruno Mars, The National, The Weeknd, Vampire Weekend, Jack White, Odesza, St. Vincent, Post Malone and tons of other performers.

Last year’s Lollapalooza reportedly cost upwards of $500,000 in repairs to Grant Park after the event. 

The brand has expanded throughout the world with successful editions throughout South America and in Europe. 

The festival is put on by C3 Presents, which is partnered with Live Nation.  C3 Presents uses its own ticketing platform, Front Gate Ticketing, despite Live Nation also owning Ticketmaster.
