Sells out 'early-bird' discount tickets Lollapalooza 2011. Though it hasn’t even announced its lineup yet, Lollapalooza remains a hot ticket. Promoters said Tuesday that so-called “early bird” tickets – a $185 three-day pass for the festival Aug. 5-7 in Grant Park – sold out in about an hour, and now only $215 three-day passes remain on its Web site, lollapalooza.com.
The price for the three-day passes is the same as last year. Headliners haven’t been announced, but the Tribune has confirmed that Eminem, the Foo Fighters and Muse will be among those named when the lineup is officially announced April 26.
Capacity for the festival was bumped to 95,000 last year and acreage was increased to accommodate a bigger audience after the festival sold out two previous years.
