Next summer, Lollapalooza will be even Lollapaloozier.

The massive Grant Park music festival announced that for its 25th anniversary, the 2016 edition will expand from three days to four, making room for more than 170 performances from Thursday through Sunday.“When the party can’t wait for the weekend, the movers and shakers make it happen on Thursday!” Lollapalooza founder and spokesman Perry Farrell said in a statement.  “So, we’ve put together an entire additional day of music to celebrate our milestone year.”

The fest will run July 28-31, and no acts have been announced yet. Tickets will go on sale in spring, at $335 for a four-day pass and $120 for a single day.
