The Lollapalooza 2012 lineup has been revealed and, as leaks and rumours would have it, Black Sabbath will headline the festival with Red Hot Chili Peppers, Black Keys and Jack White.
Chicago Times reports the festival is also starting to cater for its expanding demographic and is now including two dance acts, Skrillex and Justice, as headliners on the main stages for the first time in the festival’s history.
Being Australian, we’re very jealous of the lineup, but for those thinking of making the trip, the festival will take place from Friday, 3rd August to Sunday, 5th August at Grant Park in Chicago. Travel packages are available from here.
The cheapest includes (two people US$1509) or (four people US$2,159) with:
Three (3) nights at InterContinental Chicago
Two (2) or four (4) GA tickets to Lollapalooza
Two (2) or four (4) Lollapalooza 2012 posters
Two (2) or four (4) Lollapalooza 2012 t-shirts
