25 years is a big deal. Having been around for a quarter of a century, it’s amazing how Lollapalooza has evolved, especially since it was just announced that it will return for four days again next year<\/strong>. We attended the festival Thursday through Sunday so that we could come back with a full report and, as you would expect, it was unforgettable. Rain and<\/em> shine, we saw some amazing performances from headliners like Flosstradamus, Major Lazer, Jane\u2019s Addiction, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Ellie Goulding and more. Here’s our complete breakdown from beginning to end.<\/p>\n

<\/u>The Artists<\/h2>\n

Like all other veteran Lolla-goers, we had a gameplan going into the fest for the headliners we definitely wanted to see.<\/p>\n

On Thursday, we saw G-Eazy and J. Cole. Neither disappointed the massive crowds, as both rappers brought out their A-game for the festival.<\/p>\n

And while it didn\u2019t happen on Lollapalooza grounds, we also got a chance to experience the unforgettable G-Eazy afterparty at <\/span>Prysm Nightclub<\/span><\/a>. After performing for over 50,000 screaming fans just hours before, the multi-platinum artist hosted a much more intimate gathering at the newly-established Lincoln Park late-night spot.<\/span><\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a look at his full Lollapalooza set, too.
