Lollapalooza 2011 Aftershows Announced

Cold War Kids, Atmosphere and Arctic Monkeys are a few of the acts who will help fill Chicago with music both before Lollapalooza opens its doors and after the headliners have left the stage.

Lollapalooza is set for Aug. 5-7 at Chicago’s Grant Park. The Lollapalooza Aftershows take place in various venues around the Windy City Aug. 3-6. The majority of aftershows booked during the festival begin at 10 p.m., which corresponds to the time the event shuts down for the night.
