A spectacle. To sum it up, Lollapalooza is an event that brings music lovers from across North America to more than a just another music festival, but to an experience. Taking place in Grant Park on the shores of Lake Michigan in Chicago from August 2-5, 2018, this four day event will be one for the summer. With no Wayhome festival this summer, those in Southern Ontario or anywhere else for that matter will want to look into taking a road trip down to Chicago for an even bigger festival.
WayHome Day 3 Highlights
WayHome Day 3
WayHome Day 3 was hot and sunny. This was the day I knew I was going to have issues covering everything I wanted to see. In the end, I didn’t get to see everyone I really wanted to, but a girl’s only human and food, water and rest are absolute requirements on a weekend like this one.
