Tomorrow X Together Is First K

The band made their U.S. festival debut at Lollapalooza in 2022, returning this year to headline Day 3.

GRANT PARK — Headliners Tomorrow X Together took the Lollapalooza stage Saturday night, delighting a raucous crowd as they made history — again.

The boy band is the first South Korean band to headline the annual mega music fest in Grant Park. Earlier in the week, the group gave a sneak peek for their set by posting some of their practice session on TikTok, pledging to make their fans proud.

The quintet made their U.S. festival debut at Lolla in 2022, becoming the first K-pop band to perform at the festival.

On Thursday, girl group NewJeans became the first Korean girl group to perform at Lolla.

Last year, BTS rapper and dancer J-Hope made history as the first Korean artist to headline a major U.S. music festival.
