TWICE make history as first K‑Pop girl group to headline Lollapalooza at 2025 Chicago festival
K-pop group TWICE made music history on August 2, 2025, as the first all-female K-pop act to headline Lollapalooza.
The third day of the four-day festival, held annually at Grant Park in Chicago, featured TWICE, who “sealed the Honmoon” as part of their KPop Demon Hunters era with a dazzling drone light show that lit up the Chicago sky and a landmark Lollapalooza performance.
Comprised of Jihyo, Nayeon, Jeongyeon, Momo, Sana, Mina, Dahyun, Chaeyoung, and Tzuyu, the group delivered a high-energy set of 21 songs in total to an enthusiastic crowd. Their performance included “Queen of Hearts” and the title track from their newly released fourth album, This is For, which debuted in July 2025.
This year’s edition of Lollapalooza also featured a lineup of major acts, including A$AP Rocky, Olivia Rodrigo, and Tyler, the Creator.
Day 3 also showcased Australian group Rüfüs Du Sol on the T‑Mobile stage, Grammy-winning rapper Doechii with a theatrical set titled Doechii’s School of Hip-Hop, and guest appearances like rapper JT on Alter Ego. Orion Sun opened her Grove stage set with “Antidote” and “Space Jam – An Odyssey,” receiving acclaim for her R&B-infused performance.
Lollapalooza 2025 concludes on August 3 with anticipated performances by Sabrina Carpenter and A$AP Rocky.
