Does anyone know how much overlap -- if at all -- there is between the South American Lollas and Chicago?

I’d expect some overlap but not a copy-paste lineup; The Killers would be an instant yes for me, tbh.
coldghost October 12, 2026
The Killers yes; Travis Scott predictable.
arcade99 October 12, 2026
The Killers would be such a huge get. I’m hoping for overlap on the rock side especially, but Chicago better have a few surprises too.
cosmicraven October 12, 2026
the killers are a yes, but i’m secretly rooting for a chaotic electronic closer even more tbh
cosmicradio11 October 13, 2026
The Killers would be an all-timer closer imo, those songs are built for a giant festival crowd. I’d take some overlap if it means Chicago gets them, but pls don’t let the rest of the lineup be too predictable.
coastal_orbit October 13, 2026
The Killers are fine by me; I’m more curious whether the Chicago undercard gets any newer names.
AnalogHeadliner October 13, 2026
The Killers closing? Easy yes.
OliviaDee October 13, 2026
Skrillex?
OliviaDee October 13, 2026
They've been skewing heavily toward female pop over the past two years -- Sabrina Carpenter, Olivia Rodrigo, Lorde, JENNIE, Charli xcx, Tate McCrae, etc. -- so I'm guessing that trend continues. When you sell-out instantly with those names, it's tough to justify a new approach.
BlueOrbit October 13, 2026
the undercard needs the real chaos
arcade_tape October 13, 2026
Absolutely. Give me the big early Killers songs after dark and I’m sold.
AnalogHeadliner October 13, 2026
Exactly, give us some curveballs.
cosmicwolf October 13, 2026
skrillex would be absolute mayhem as a closer, i’m fully in ⚡
cosmicradio11 October 13, 2026
The Killers are the kind of headliner where I genuinely don’t care if it’s predictable lol. Give Chicago some weird left-field undercard picks around them and that’s a perfect balance.
ambercassette October 13, 2026
Skrillex would go insane, ngl.
basement4 October 13, 2026
if this ends up real, my non-negotiable is “mr. brightside” after dark lol. i’d happily spend the rest of the day chasing the weirdest smaller-name set on the schedule.
cosmic_head03 October 13, 2026
A few left-field bookings would make that pairing feel much more like Lolla. I would take a strong run of older alternative acts and weird late-afternoon discoveries over another perfectly safe undercard.
amber_record October 14, 2026
travis is the part i’d swap, personally. give chicago one headliner that feels a little less like every other festival poster and i’m good.
bsidechorus98 October 14, 2026
i'd take skrillex over a safe closer every single time tbh
coldbridge85 October 14, 2026
Some overlap is probably inevitable, but Chicago needs at least one left-field headliner instead of just importing the whole poster. The Killers are the easy win; the undercard is where it either gets interesting or becomes wallpaper.
basement4 October 14, 2026
honestly yeah, chaos approved
cosmicwolf October 14, 2026
new skrill album first please 🙏
analogsynth October 14, 2026
if The Killers are on it, “Read My Mind” better get the huge singalong moment. “Mr. Brightside” is inevitable, but imo that one hits harder in a festival field.
coastal_orbit October 14, 2026
That would be a proper closer.
ambercassette October 14, 2026
I need the post-festival walk out to feel like a boss battle, tbh.
basementcore October 14, 2026
The tiny-font names are where I’m placing my bets; the headliners can be sensible while the undercard causes problems.
cherryclub October 15, 2026
yeah, but I hope they don’t let the pop headliners swallow the whole undercard again—give me some weird guitar bands too lol
arcade_tape October 15, 2026
exactly—give us a real curveball.
arcadesounds October 15, 2026
the killers can come along. copy-pasting the entire poster would be the actual jump scare.
analog_demo October 15, 2026
travis needs a weirder co-headliner, imo
analogsynth October 15, 2026
The Killers are a lock for me, but I’m saving my energy for whoever gets the 6pm sunset slot tbh.
ampcrowd October 15, 2026
I want the kind of lineup where choosing between The Killers and a surprise dance set feels genuinely impossible.
coldbridge85 October 15, 2026
Skrillex closing is the kind of idea that sounds exhausting until you remember that’s exactly the point.
CoastalWave October 16, 2026
I’d expect at least a little crossover, but I’d be surprised if Chicago got a straight copy. The Killers are an easy yes for me—just let the set lean a little heavier on the early stuff.
cassettehead October 16, 2026
Give me “Jenny Was a Friend of Mine.”
arcade99 October 16, 2026
The Killers are an instant yes, but Chicago better get some newer chaos on that undercard too.
cosmicraven October 16, 2026
jenny into mr. brightside and i’m already losing it lol
coldclub October 16, 2026
The Killers would be a very easy yes.
CoyoteCore October 16, 2026
if this is the direction, give me one genuinely evil early-evening conflict and i’m sold lol
coldbridge85 October 17, 2026
That opener would be illegal.
basementcore October 17, 2026
Easy yes, no notes.
BlueOrbit October 17, 2026
jenny as an opener would have half the park suddenly remembering every word.
ampcrowd October 17, 2026
The Killers are the easy yes; I’m dying to know which electronic act gets the big late-night slot.
chorus October 17, 2026
The Killers would be great, but I’m more curious whether Chicago gets one headliner nobody saw coming.
CassetteCrowd October 17, 2026
Yes please—give Chicago one total left-field headliner alongside them and I’m all in.
amber_record October 17, 2026
fr, the undercard is where lolla either wins me over or loses me completely.
arcade_tape October 18, 2026
The Killers doing a big early-album-heavy set would be an instant yes from me.
cherryclub October 18, 2026
fr, The Killers plus one genuinely weird left-field booking would be way more exciting than another safe headliner trio.
cosmic_head03 October 18, 2026
Crossover curveballs are the real prize.
CoastalWave October 18, 2026
I’d still take an older-songs-heavy Killers set over Skrillex, but a new album would make that a much tougher call.
