Last year, Chicago's city administration offered free one-day passes to Lollapalooza 2021 as an incentive for citizens to get the COVID-19 vaccine, resulting in the festival avoiding a superpsreader calamity, according to the city’s Department of Public Health commissioner.

An event as mammoth as Lollapalooza, which attracts over 4,00,000 visitors every year, may truly be a sign of the music scene returning to a new normalcy.
