Taking place July 31 to August 3, Lollapalooza has been a cornerstone of live music culture since Perry Farrell first launched it in 1991, bringing together rock, pop, hip-hop, electronic, and everything in between on multiple stages.

Whether you're flying to Chicago or following the action from home, there's no better way to celebrate Lollapalooza than by building your own Hitster pack with the biggest anthems from its storied history. With Hitify, you can identify all those iconic tracks and create a custom music game that will keep your friends guessing all night long.

What is Lollapalooza?

Lollapalooza is one of the original multi-genre mega-festivals. What started as a farewell tour for Perry Farrell's band Jane's Addiction in 1991 quickly became a permanent institution in American music culture. The festival settled in Chicago's Grant Park in 2005 and has been held there ever since, drawing over 100,000 fans each day across its four-day run.

The Lollapalooza lineups are legendary for their diversity: you might catch a rock headliner on the main stage, a hip-hop superstar on the next stage over, and an electronic DJ set right after. Past headliners include Red Hot Chili Peppers, Eminem, Billie Eilish, Post Malone, Kendrick Lamar, The Weeknd, Lady Gaga, and Arctic Monkeys. This genre-spanning identity makes Lollapalooza perfect territory for a Hitster pack that challenges players across every era and style.

What is Hitster?

Hitster is the addictive card game where you guess the release year of songs. Each card has a QR code that plays the actual track through your phone. You listen, then try to place the card in the right chronological position in your growing timeline. The closer you get to the correct year, the more points you score.

With Hitify, you can scan and identify any song you hear, then use the app to build your own custom Hitster pack. Just identify the tracks you want, download your printable cards, and you're ready to play.
