Ive to headline Lollapalooza Berlin & Paris in July [Official]

Group Ive (Ahn Yu-jin, Ga-eul, Lay, Jang Won-young, Liz, Lee Seo) will be the headliner at ‘Lollapalooza Berlin’ this coming July.

According to an announcement made by ‘Lollapalooza Berlin’ on the 19th (local time) through their official SNS, Ive has joined the lineup of ‘Lollapalooza Berlin’, a world-class music festival to be held at the Olympiastadion & Olympiapark Berlin in Germany from July 12th to 13th.

World-class musicians including Ive, Justin Timberlake, Gracie Abrams, and BTS‘s J-Hope will be participating in this concert. Ive will be taking the stage as one of the headliners and will be performing at a high-quality event.

‘Lollapalooza’ is a large-scale music festival that began in Chicago, USA in 1991, and has been held in many parts of the world, including the US, France, Chile, and Brazil. ‘Lollapalooza Berlin’, to be held in July, will be held at a large concert hall that can accommodate approximately 74,000 people.

Last August, Ive was the only K-pop girl group invited to ‘Lollapalooza Chicago’, performing alongside famous foreign singers. Despite it being their first festival debut, they performed 11 songs to the full band for 45 minutes, perfectly performing and live, and drew enthusiastic responses from the audience, presenting a diverse stage.

At the time, major foreign media outlets such as the American music magazines ‘Rolling Stone’, ‘Chicago Sun-Times’, and ‘Billboard’ also focused on Ive, giving him rave reviews every day, calling him a ‘global festival powerhouse’.

Thanks to the hot interest, Ive announced early on that he would be attending ‘Lollapalooza Paris’, which will be held on July 20. With the addition of their participation in ‘Lollapalooza Berlin’, this will be their third ‘Lollapalooza’. Ive is the only K-pop girl group to have been invited to the ‘Lollapalooza’ stage three times.

Meanwhile, Ive successfully wrapped up promotions for their third mini-album ‘Ive Empathy’, which was released on the 3rd. With their new album, they achieved five consecutive million-seller sales and 12 music show wins, and with their pre-released song ‘REBEL HEART’, they achieved a ‘Perfect All-Kill (PAK)’ on domestic music charts, creating another ‘Ive Syndrome’. The double title song ‘ATTITUDE’ also achieved good results, such as entering the top 10 of Spotify’s ‘Top Song Debut Global’ chart.
