3 articles · Updated · soompi · Aug 2Summary
- CORTIS performed a 40-minute Lollapalooza set on Aug. 1 after organizers cut 10 minutes from the group's originally scheduled 50-minute slot.
- Heavy rain and flooding in Chicago pushed Day 3's start back 3 hours—from 12 p.m. to 3 p.m. CT—canceling most sets scheduled in that window.
- The group's performance was moved to 3:40 p.m. instead of being scrapped entirely, while headliner Jennie's later evening set time was left unchanged.
- About 4 inches of rain had flooded parts of Grant Park earlier, forcing crews to drain Hutchinson Field before the festival resumed for large crowds.
