Lollapalooza Paris 2020

[Archi]

This year was really the worst they've done. And 2017 is still the best! I was expecting a better line-up around Billie Eilish and Pearl Jam but I don't think I'll come back there in 2020...

Sunday looks decent but I'm not really big on this whole thing this time. Though maybe I need to go away and actually listen to Pearl Jam and Vampire Weekend.

They have both their headliners already with Billie and PJ, don’t they?

They usually do 2 headliners each day i think

I thought this was 6pm today rather than 6pm tomorrow.

Wonder who's about?

Imagine Dragons got announced for a Festival in Quebec one week earlier, a little bit tight but at least they are around

They headlined in 2017. I don’t think they will have a repeat since this is only their 4th year

[Archi]

They are late. Except Hellfest, got the feeling all major festivals in France have some communications issues this year from what I see.

EDIT: A few names have been added on the website. Gradur, Malaa, Joé Dwet Filé, Bombox Cartel, Sigala, Apashe, The Hunna, Fédération Française de Bagarre for Saturday. Asap Rocky, Madeon, Gambi, Boy, Saint Jhn, Yuzmv, Highly Suspects, The Last Internationale and White Reaper for Sunday.

It’s very week compared to first two editions. It looks like they used most of their budget for Pearl Jam and Billie Eilish. Vald was placed 11th in 2018. It’s weird how they placed him 3rd this year

[OJ_Ketchup]

Vald has gotten bigger here, and is pretty fun live tbh

 

But by all means I agree with you, weak lineup, won't be coming back this year

[charlierc]

Billie Eilish as an outright head but Pearl Jam have a co-headliner?

Not judging, just surprised, if only given how long PJ tend to play live.

[Archi]

Vald is much bigger now than in 2018. He's playing in the biggest arenas now. But I got the feeling / hope there's one big act missing. The festival usually has 2 acts per day mentioned as headliners for the 2 Main Stage. There's Asap Rocky on the same line as Pearl Jam on Sunday. I guess one big act is missing next to Billie Eilish? But who?

Can we still expect a second headliner for saturday? there should be two main stages I guess.

It is one of the shittiest line up of 2020. When you see Lolla Berlin and Lolla Stockholm, nd then Lolla Paris ... damn ...

Not sure which one is worst, Berlin or Paris. RATM and PJ can't save 2 terrible line ups

Yeah, it's basically Pearl Jam vs. Rage against the Machine here....

Both festivals fell a bit off during the last couple years, I wonder why?

Berlin sells great even with an awful Line up, so no need to invest into more quality acts, but what about Paris?

Like lots of major festivals, they're less rock than before.
