Lollapalooza, Chicago’s annual music festival at Grant Park, kicks off its 2019 event on Thursday, and there’s a lot of music for fans to enjoy — both in person and at home.

The four-day affair runs Thursday through Sunday, and tickets are still available for those in (or able to get themselves to) Chicago. For those not able to physically attend, there will be a live stream of all of the can’t-miss performances.

YouTube will be hosting the exclusive and official live stream of the August event, via Lollapalooza’s YouTube channel and the YouTube Music app.

“Following a record-setting Coachella livestream, YouTube is expanding its 2019 live music festival lineup to include coverage of Lollapalooza this summer,” the video service announced in a press release. “In addition to the curated live stream over the four-day festival, for the first time ever, fans will get additional custom content giving unique access to the festivals’ artists.”
