Lollapalooza will be coming to Europe next year, taking place in Berlin at the Tempelhof Airport on 12-13 September.

Perry Farrell, Jane's Addiction frontman and co-founder of the festival, said: "I'm extremely excited to finally bring Lollapalooza across the pond to Europe. Berlin's energy, vibrant art, fashion and music scenes are a mirror reflection of what Lollapalooza is all about and I can't wait to share in this cultural exchange."

Berlin will be the fourth country outside of the United States to take part in the festival, following Chile, Brazil and Argentina.

In 2013, Lollapalooza cancelled plans for the Festival to visit Israel due to concerns over political implications.

William Morris Endeavor, owner of Lollapalooza, and C3 Presents will be teaming up with Festival Republic, who is the promoter for Reading and Leeds, and Melt! Booking, the German festival promoter to bring the Festival to Europe.

Meanwhile, back in Lollapalooza's birthplace of Grant Park, Chicago, next year's festival will take place from 31 July - 2 August.
