You guys don't understand the current Lolla demo if you think Imagine Dragons is headlining this festival in the year 2023.
Explain
They’re an extremely successful pop/rock band. They’re right in Lolla’s wheelhouse. There’s talk they’re doing a stadium tour next year so it would be either Wrigley or Lolla.

theyre literally headlining lolla india
The international Lolla's offer acts who might normally not come to a country a much easier logistical lift that shifts the monetary risk/reward over to the promoter instead of the band. There are plenty of big acts that have played international Lolla's that have never played the Chicago version and vice versa -- likely because some acts can make more money on their own with stand alone Chicago dates and because in some cases the act makes sense in the international market for Lolla, but not back home. Presenting the festivals as interchangeable is silly.
As for the 21 Pilots comparison someone else made, I get where you're coming from but they're different for a couple of key reasons. The first is that Lolla loves elevating acts who started on the undercard and worked their way up, and Twenty One Pilots drew a huge crowd in 2015 that the organizers were all too happy to build off of. They also have a very dedicated fan base that, at least for a time, skewed younger.
Lolla seems to want one of three types of headliners: emerging acts that have a strong appeal to Gen Z, marquee/legacy acts that give them some prestige and bring in an older crowd that's willing to spend on upgrades, and crossover/pop artists with wide appeal. I don't think that Imagine Dragons comfortably checks any of those boxes at the moment -- at least not to a level that will justify what their cost likely is.

I don't think Imagine Dragons will be there but they def have some Gen Z appeal, along with some crossover pop appeal. They also fit the bill of Lolla "elevating acts who started on the undercard and worked their way up". I wouldn't be surprised if they headline this festival one day.
Lollapalooza usually shares a headliner with Shaky Knees and this year they are The Killers, Muse and Lumineers. I'll go with The Killers as being the most likely.

Billie feels like a meh booking in 2023. Just feels that with how big of an act she is you would want to be one of her first shows off a new album whenever the next one comes. Everyone has gotten billie this cycle already.

She would move a lot of tickets. Her show at the United Center sold out instantly.

no doubt she'd move a lot of tickets. I'd like to see her too but the album touring cycle will be 2 years old by then. Feel like you could get someone fresh with that spot. But then again Coachella might be doing that with Dua in 2023 too.

Probably no Kacey Musgraves, Taylor Swift, Maren Morris, Cam, Eric Church, Dierks Bentley, Steve Earle, Waylon Jennings, Chris Stapleton, Sturgill Simpson or Luke Combs because they’re just country singers and they can play at some country music festivals instead of Lollapalooza. Waylon Jennings died on February the thirteenth 2002 at the age of sixty four.
