What is Lollapalooza?

Lollapalooza started in 1991 as a farewell tour for the band Jane’s Addiction, but it quickly evolved into something much bigger. Over the years, it has become one of the world’s most iconic music festivals, known for its eclectic lineups, immersive experiences, and vibrant atmosphere. From Chicago to Berlin, Paris to São Paulo, Lollapalooza has left its mark on every continent.

In 2025, the festival returns to India, promising an experience that’s bigger, better, and more inclusive than ever before. But what makes Lollapalooza India 2025 so special? Let’s dive in.

At the heart of Lollapalooza India 2025 is its jaw-dropping lineup. This year, the festival brings together a mix of global icons and India’s brightest stars. International headliners like Shawn Mendes and Louis Tomlinson are set to make their India debuts, bringing their chart-topping hits and magnetic stage presence to the festival.

But Lollapalooza isn’t just about international acts. It’s also a platform for India’s thriving music scene. Artists like Prateek Kuhad, Ritviz, and The Local Train will share the stage, showcasing the incredible diversity of Indian music. From indie rock to electronic beats, Bollywood fusion to regional folk, the lineup is a testament to Lollapalooza’s commitment to bridging global and local sounds.

For families, the Kidzapalooza zone offers kid-friendly activities and performances, making it a truly inclusive event.

Sustainability: A festival with a conscience

In 2025, Lollapalooza India is taking significant steps to reduce its environmental impact. The festival has partnered with eco-conscious organizations to implement a zero-waste initiative, featuring biodegradable food containers, solar-powered stages, and extensive recycling programs.

Attendees are encouraged to participate in sustainability efforts, such as tree-planting drives and eco-friendly workshops. The festival’s “Green Rider” program allows artists to request sustainable amenities, further reducing the event’s carbon footprint.

Meghan Markle's 'With Love, Meghan' renewed for season 2 despite critic backlash and ratings

Despite being panned by reviewers, Meghan Markle's 'With Love, Meghan'has managed to secure a second season, and it is almost true that controversy still fuels viewership. The eight-episode show, which premiered on Tuesday, features the Duchess of Sussex sharing cooking, gardening, and hosting tips from a stunning California estate. Despite being labelled “gormless lifestyle filler” by *The Guardian* and an “exercise in narcissism” by *The Telegraph*, the series has found its way into Netflix’s top 10 in 47 countries, including the U.S., Canada, and South Africa.

The show’s renewal was announced just hours after its debut, with Meghan sharing the news on Instagram in her signature playful style.

Women in their villain era: Ditching the ‘Good Girl’ act and owning unapologetic power

Let’s face it: the world has never been a safe space for women. It’s a place where we’re told to smile while being catcalled, to be polite while being undermined, and to shrink ourselves to fit into the tiny, suffocating box labelled “likeable.” In a world that often feels set against them with unsafe streets, glass ceilings, impossible beauty standards, and a relentless demand to be nice, women have had enough. They are done playing nice. The good girl act is out, and the villain era is in. And when they decided to break free? Oh honey, they did it with a bang.

This is the age of women flipping the script, ditching the nice girl manual, and embracing their inner bad guy. And why wouldn’t we? When the world is a dumpster fire of double standards, violence, and impossible expectations, sometimes the only way to survive is to become the villain they already think you are. And let’s be real: when women stop playing by the rules, it’s not a breakdown. It’s a breakthrough.

Sara Davies steps back from Dragons' Den to save Crafter’s Companion

Sara Davies, a well-known face on BBC’s Dragons’ Den, has decided to step back from the show to focus on her own business, Crafter’s Companion. The 40-year-old entrepreneur, who joined the series in 2019 as the youngest female Dragon at 35, shared the news on Instagram, explaining that her role as CEO of her craft supply company requires her full attention. While fans will still see her in the second half of the current season, she won’t be part of the next series.

Davies, who founded Crafter’s Companion in 2005 while still at university, built the business from her bedroom into a global brand. She recently returned as CEO after the company faced financial challenges earlier this year, stepping in to save jobs and stabilise the business. In her Instagram post, she described the decision to leave Dragons’ Den as a tough but necessary one, emphasising that being a Dragon involves far more than just filming. “It’s about committing to the businesses you invest in and seeing them grow,” she wrote. “That’s why I need to focus on my first ‘baby’—my own business.”
