Disney+ and Hulu Stream Lollapalooza 2026 Live, Featuring 170+ Artists Across Eight Stages
Lollapalooza 2026 will be broadcast live on Disney+ and Hulu from July 30 to August 2, giving viewers worldwide access to the Chicago festival’s four‑day lineup.
The four‑day event takes place in Grant Park, Chicago, and will feature more than 170 artists performing on eight stages. The official live stream, available to subscribers of Disney+ and Hulu, will include headline sets, exclusive artist interviews, backstage footage, and behind‑the‑scenes coverage.
The festival’s first‑day headline acts are Lorde and John Summit. Friday’s main acts are Charli XCX and The Smashing Pumpkins. Saturday’s front‑liners are Olivia Dean and Jennie, while Sunday concludes with Tate McRae and The xx. In addition to the headline performers, the stream will showcase a broad roster that includes Zara Larsson, 5 Seconds of Summer, Suki Waterhouse, Duke Dumont, The Chainsmokers, DISCO LINES, SOMBR, and YUNGBLUD.
Disney+ and Hulu announced the partnership on Instagram, noting that the two services are the official streaming destinations for Lollapalooza 2026. The post stated that subscribers can watch the exclusive livestream from July 30 to August 2.
The live stream is the first time the festival has offered a full‑weekend broadcast. According to the festival’s website, the stream will provide more than just concert footage; it will deliver a front‑row experience for viewers at home.
Ticket sales for the in‑person event have largely sold out. The Lollapalooza ticket portal reports that most four‑day passes are on waitlist, while one‑day general‑admission tickets for Thursday, Friday, and Saturday are also sold out. A limited number of last‑minute passes and premium packages may still be available through the official website before the gates open.
Lollapalooza is one of the largest music festivals in the United States, drawing an estimated 400,000 attendees each July. The festival began as a touring event in 1991 and moved permanently to Chicago in 2005. Live Nation Entertainment acquired a controlling interest in the festival’s parent company, C3 Presents, in 2014.
Disney+ is a subscription video‑on‑demand service owned by Disney Streaming, a division of Disney Entertainment. As of the third quarter of 2024, Disney+ had 153.8 million global paid subscriptions. Hulu, also owned by Disney Streaming, had 64.1 million paid memberships.
The partnership between Disney+ and Hulu for Lollapalooza 2026 follows a broader strategy to integrate the two services. In 2025, Disney announced plans to merge Hulu’s content hub into Disney+ outside the United States, though the Hulu app remains available.
The live stream schedule reflects the festival’s diverse lineup. Thursday’s opening acts set a pop‑heavy tone, while Friday’s lineup blends pop and alternative rock. Saturday’s performers span pop, hip‑hop, and electronic genres, and Sunday’s closing acts bring a mix of indie and pop.
The festival’s eight stages will host simultaneous performances, and the live stream will rotate between them to provide a comprehensive view of the weekend. In addition to the headline sets, the stream will feature interviews with artists such as Lorde and Charli XCX, as well as backstage moments that give viewers insight into the festival’s production.
For fans who cannot attend in person, the Disney+ and Hulu livestream offers a way to experience the scale and energy of Lollapalooza from home. The stream is available to subscribers of both services, and the festival’s website provides a schedule of live and on‑demand content.
The event is scheduled to conclude on Sunday, August 2, after four days of performances. The festival’s official website continues to list ticket availability, and the live stream will run throughout the weekend.
The partnership with Disney+ and Hulu marks a significant expansion of Lollapalooza’s reach, allowing the festival to connect with a global audience that would otherwise be unable to attend in Chicago.
The livestream will be available to subscribers of Disney+ and Hulu from July 30 to August 2, 2026, covering all headline performances, exclusive interviews, and behind‑the‑scenes footage across the festival’s eight stages.
