Germany will join Chile, Brazil and Argentina as the fourth international location for the iconic US Lollapalooza festival, and will be the festival’s initial European arm, showcasing bands and artists on 12th and 13th September 2015.
Lollapalooza continues to plant flags around the globe, enrichening and intriguing its goers, with each festival learning from and collaborating with the other countries.
Bringing incredible music, food, art and social responsibility to the Tempelhof Airport in the heart of Berlin, the festival lands in an urban center and brings together community facets of city life.
This latest installment, with Berlin being a vibrant, leftfield city, which recently celebrated the 25th anniversary of the wall being pulled down, is an exciting development for Lollapalooza founder and Jane’s Addiction frontman, Perry Farrell. He has seen the festival grow, transcending borders and languages to touch music lovers on a universal scale.
“We have very carefully considered bringing our festival to Europe and ,frankly, were intimidated by the rich festival history Europe has had for 50 years. Berlin feels like it is ready to explode as a city and cultural center and we want to be there to grow with the city,” said Marc Geiger, head of William Morris Endeavor’s music division.
