“Managing Photo Editors Grace Beal and Tess Crowley traveled to Chicago to cover Lollapalooza 2022. The music festival — one of the largest in the world — took place July 28-31 and featured more than 170 unique artists from across the globe. Picturesque views of Lake Michigan and the Chicago Skyline have served as the backdrop for the famous midwestern musical festival since 1991. This year, over 400,000 attendees filled Grant Park.
Throughout the four-day festival, Grace and Tess photographed a combined total of 29 artists across seven stages. From headliners like Machine Gun Kelly to up-and-coming artists such as Zoe Wees, Lollapalooza attracted a colorful and exuberant crowd.”
