OMG, SB19 Is Set To Make History As The First Filipino Boy Group To Perform At Lollapalooza Chicago

After BINI's stint at Coachella, another familiar local name is set to take the stage at one of the world’s largest annual music festivals this year. ICYMI: SB19 is set to become the first Filipino boy group—composed of Pablo, Josh, Stell, Ken, and Justin—to perform at Lollapalooza Music Festival this year! The annual four-day festival will be held at Grant Park in Chicago from July 30 to August 2, 2026.

Lollapalooza officially announced the star-studded lineup, featuring global headliners spread across four days. Multi-awarded artists like Olivia Dean, Jennie from BLACKPINK, and Lorde will be there. Charli XCX, Tate McRae, John Summit, and the Smashing Pumpkins will also headline the event. 

"Your 2026 Lineup By Day 🤘⁣ 4-Day Tickets are on waitlist. 1-Day Tickets are on sale now!" the official page wrote. 

SB19 is scheduled to perform on Thursday, July 30, and will share the stage alongside the first day's headliners, Lorde and John Summit, as well as other established acts, including 5 Seconds of Summer and Sombr.

Tickets are available through Lollapalooza's official website, with options ranging including one-day, two-day, to four-day passes. Prices start at $185 (around PHP 11,405) and can go up to $29,000 (PHP 1,787,966), depending on whether you're getting General Admission or VIP access, as well as the number of festival days you'll be attending.

This is definitely a one-for-the-books moment for the boy group, as they will be the first Filipino boy group to ever perform at the popular music festival. SB19 has been preparing for this milestone for months, with rehearsals and practice sessions leading up to their big stage debut.

"Looking forward kami sa mapapakita namin and we will make sure na maging proud ang lahat and masasabi niyong deserve kami doon sa stage na yun," Stell shared in an press conference. 

"It's our opportunity as well to meet them, to introduce our team SB19, and to show them what the Philippines is all about when it comes to performing and what the Philippines is all about when it comes to showing our talent, our skills," he expressed.

Fresh from their "Wakas at Simula: The Trilogy Concert Finale," which drew a massive crowd, SB19 continues their momentum even on the global stage. They are also set to perform at the Summer Sonic Festival on August 14, a three-day urban music festival in Japan. BINI, the eight-member P-pop girl group, and Filipino Singer Ena Mori will also be part of the lineup.
