This is a list of Lollapalooza lineups, sorted by year. Lollapalooza was an annual travelling music festival organized from 1991 to 1997 by Jane's Addiction singer Perry Farrell. The concept was revived in 2003, but was cancelled in 2004. From 2005 onward, the concert has taken place almost exclusively at Grant Park, Chicago, and has played in Chile, Brazil, Argentina, Germany, France, and India.
