Breaking Barriers: TXT’s Journey to Headlining Lollapalooza

This achievement follows in the footsteps of J-Hope, a senior member of TXT’s labelmate BTS, who wowed the audience with his 2022 act. This year, however, it’s TXT’s turn to shine.
A Setlist to Remember: What to Expect
TXT has prepared a carefully curated setlist for their highly anticipated Lollapalooza performance.

The performance will take place on August 5th at the Bud Light Stage in Chicago.
A Special Collaboration: Coi Leray Takes the Stage
Adding an extra layer of excitement to their performance, TXT will be joined by rapper and singer Coi Leray for a special collaboration. The group will perform “Happy Fools” alongside Coi Leray, promising a dynamic and memorable fusion of talents that is sure to captivate the audience. The anticipation for this joint performance is building, and fans can expect nothing short of magic.
TXT’s Remarkable Journey in the K-Pop Scene
TXT, which stands for Tomorrow X Together, was formed in 2019 under the management of Big Hit Music and HYBE Corporation, the powerhouses behind the global K-pop phenomenon BTS. Since their inception, TXT has made significant strides in the industry. They’ve sold out shows, released three studio albums, and embarked on an impressive 16-city world tour.
Their accomplishments extend to the charts as well. With their hit track “Crown” and EP “The Dream Chapter: Star,” TXT secured the number one position on the Billboard World Albums and World Digital Song Sales charts. Their recent EP release, titled “The Name Chapter: Temptation,” further solidifies their place as a force to be reckoned with in the K-pop landscape.
