Lollapalooza was founded in 1991 by Jane’s Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell, and is credited with popularising alternative music. It was a touring festival during its original ’90s incarnation, which lasted until 1997, and was rebooted in 2003. In 2005, Lollapalooza became a weekend festival in Chicago’s Grant Park. The festival made its overseas debut in Chile in 2011, expanding to Brazil in 2012 and this year in Argentina.
