Welcome to HackLolla!

Welcome to HackLolla, we’re glad you’re here.

For the first time this year, we are opening up our festival data for anyone to use. We’ve seen a number of fans make some truly cool web and mobile apps related to Lollapalooza in the past year, and we want to help facilitate and encourage that type of passion and creativity. In fact, we’re offering a VIP flyaway trip to Lolla for the developer who comes up with the best implemented, most creative, and most impactful app related to Lollapalooza. And we’ll also promote the app to our fans, to help enhance everyone’s festival experience.

We’ve worked with our platform partner DoStuff Media to create an API for HackLolla that will allow you to pull data about Lollapalooza artists, events, stages/venues, and updates. Your challenge, if you choose to accept it: use this info and other data, if you want, to help fans get the most out of Lollapalooza before, during and after the Festival.

Check out the rest of the HackLolla site to learn more about the challenge and, of course, Lollapalooza.com for the details on this year’s Festival. To get started and gain access to the Lollapalooza API, click here.

We’re psyched to see what you come up with. Good luck!

Digital Director, Lollapalooza
