Lineups by year

2011

In mid-November 2010, the American musician Perry Farrell announced that the twentieth version of Lollapalooza festival would be held for the first time outside the United States; The site chosen was the Parque O'Higgins in Santiago, Chile, on 2 and 3 April 2011. The event gathered approximately 100,000 people between the O'Higgins Park Ellipse, the Movistar Arena and the Theater Dome.

Some critics felt that the poor organization affects the development of evento. Also, many people of Chile felt that the final festival did not meet expectations, feeling more like a "Lollapalooza Chile" than a "Lollapalooza in Chile."

The organization had many problems, one of them being the cancellation of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs show due to health problems of one of its band members. Problems escalated when Lotus announced that tickets would not be refunded under any circumstances. Added to this, the organizers did not program another band to replace the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, but as time passed they were able to present other artists.
