Thousands of people have already descended on Chicago’s Grant Park for Lollapalooza, which kicked off Thursday morning.
Massive crowds are expected all weekend long, with up to 100,000 fans each night of the four-day music festival.
"My son plays the guitar, and he and my husband love Metallica so we wanted to do a family thing and we got it for his birthday," said Charlyn Vlasic. Unlike last year, wristband holders don't need to show proof of vaccination or a negative COVID-19 test to enter the gates.Concertgoers will be subject to an airport-style search, including pat downs.
