| Though local papers leaked some of the details of the lineup at this summer's Lollapalooza in early March, festival producer C3 Presents revealed the official schedule this morning.
As predicted, headline acts will include the Beastie Boys, Depeche Mode, and Jane's Addiction; other acts that will be taking various stages in Grant Park from August 7 to August 9 include Snoop Dogg, the Decemberists, and Fleet Foxes. The festival's complete lineup is available here.
According to the Lollapalooza Web site, standard three-day passes to the event will sell for $190 each. The $850 V.I.P. passes will provide access to two lounges stationed at either end of the park that offer air-conditioned restrooms, bars, viewing platforms, and lunch and dinner buffets. Those hosting events on festival grounds may opt to rent private cabanas, which will accommodate groups of 20 to 45.
