Lollapalooza Argentina revealed on Tuesday afternoon the line up of its edition of 2025to be held on the weekend of March 21-23 at the San Isidro Hippodrome. According to the organizers of the event, who will simultaneously celebrate the tenth anniversary of their arrival in the country, “the lineup reflects their commitment to bringing top-level stars, honoring diversity, celebrating local talent and giving space to promising emerging figures.” As an additional fact, three of the headliners will debut on Argentine soil. Such is the case of the singers Olivia Rodrigo y Justin Timberlakelike the group TOOL.
The American singer, songwriter and actress went from being a Disney star to a pop icon. Two years after her recording debut with Sourin 2023 put into circulation Gutsin which he began to move away from his main influences, Lorde and Taylor Swift. Also with a past in the Mickey Mouse factory, at 43 years old (he will be 44 when he arrives), Timberlake continues to wear the “Prince of Pop” badge (because there will only be one “King”). Since he entered a studio with NSYNC, his former boybanduntil his present as a soloist, he never stopped producing music or dancing to it. And that was once again evident with his recent album, Everything I Thought It Was (2024).
The arrival of TOOL is great news for progressive metal lovers in Argentina. Since they blew many people’s minds after the release of their second album, Anima (1996), are expected in this part of the world. For many, the best thing is their live show, where anything can happen. The headliner of the festival is completed by the Canadians Shawn Mendes and another veteran, Alanis Morrisetteas well as the Australian electronic music band Rufus of the Sun. Although they have been playing at home in Buenos Aires for a while now, Tan Biónica will add a pop and Argentine touch to this group.
The LollaAR2025 programming also shows a great aesthetic variety. And this is evident with the inclusion of Cariboua Canadian indietronic sound laboratory that achieved consecration in 2010 with the album Swim (starred in one of the best international shows seen in Buenos Aires in 2022). It will be a unique opportunity to enjoy the Irish post punk band DC Fountains (another act expected by the local public), in the same way as the groovy pop of Parcelsfrom the singer-songwriter Michael Kiwanuka (a more folk and English version of the great Bill Withers) and another popular band in Argentina: the indie pop Foster The People.

Charloytte De Witte, San Holo and Disco Lines. The cumbia will be provided by the Mexican group The Blue AngelsReggae will be a Venezuelan thing My yellow and the metal will roar courtesy of the Brazilian legend Grave. My Pride will unfold a performance full of militancy, while Nathy Peluso will be in charge of relaxing the San Isidro Hippodrome.
After performing in a jacuzzi last year, on the Alternative stage, and recently doing the great Cirque du Soleil at the Movistar Arena, we will have to wait to see what show they will bring in their hands. Ca7riel and Paco Amoroso. Will repeat Woswhich is always a joy and a guarantee of a very good flow, while Lucila Storino, from the post punk trio Dum Girlwill have the opportunity to demonstrate why she is one of the best frontwomen in Argentina. Vinocio, Planta (ex Perras on the Beach), BB Blue, Chita, Juan Lopez and Juana Aguirreas part of the national delegation, will be part of a Lollapalooza Argentina that will surely make history.
