(WBBM NEWSRADIO) — Among those expected to benefit most from the Lollapalooza music festival that runs from Thursday through Sunday in Grant Park are the owners of the city's many music clubs.

Robby Glick, who owns Reggies in the South Loop, expects his venue to see a 10% boost in business during Lollapalooza. Some clubs could see even more, he tells WBBM Newsradio.

“It’s an influx of people from all over, all over the world, all over the country,” he said.

He said the financial boost is important, given the financial losses clubs like his had during the COVID pandemic.
