GRANT PARK — Ten people were arrested and dozens were taken to hospitals during Lollapalooza over the weekend as tens of thousands of fans packed Grant Park for the sold-out four-day festival.
The 10 arrests came even though police issued no citations during the mega festival, according to an Office of Emergency Management and Communications news release. A total of 67 people were taken to area hospitals, officials said.
Police didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.
Arrests at Lollapalooza fell slightly compared to last year, while ambulance transports reached their highest level since 2022.
Twelve people were arrested in 2025, compared to 9 in 2024, 14 in 2023, 15 in 2022 and 19 in 2021.
Forty-two people were taken to the hospital in 2025, compared to 63 in 2024, 55 in 2023, 68 in 2022 and 102 in 2021.
Lollapalooza sold out all 115,000 tickets for each of its four days at Grant Park, organizers said, although many of those tickets were four-day passes.
