Lollapalooza Chile 2027: Day-by-Day Lineup and How to Plan a March Trip to Santiago

Fauna Primavera in Huechuraba

Fauna Primavera is on from Thursday 26 to Saturday 28 November at Parque Ciudad Empresarial in Huechuraba, an open park surrounded by glass office towers. Two stages face one wide lawn, and at dusk you get the Andean foothills on the skyline behind them. It runs three days this year instead of two, and it is the one big festival here you can still get into this month.

Hot Chip play last on the Thursday, The Strokes on the Friday and New Order on the Saturday. FKA twigs, Johnny Marr and Underworld are also on across the three nights.

Gates open at 17:00 on the Thursday and 16:00 on the Friday. On the Saturday they open at 12:00 with music from 13:00, so that one is twelve hours on your feet. A three-day pass is $175.000. Single days are $60.000 on the Thursday and $95.000 each for the Friday and the Saturday, before the service charge.

There is no Metro station at the park, so you are relying on a taxi, a rideshare or a city bus late at night. Sort your ride home out before you go, especially if you are staying for Club Fauna, the afterparty that runs from 23:00 on the Saturday until 04:45. It costs $35.000, or $20.000 if you already have a festival ticket.

Theatre across the city in January

Festival Internacional Teatro a Mil takes over theatres all over Santiago from 2 to 27 January. You get theatre, dance and circus from Chile and abroad, plus parades in the street. The indoor shows are at Matucana 100, the Centro Gabriela Mistral and Teatro Nescafé de las Artes, among other houses. Almost any January week catches something.

Shows are sold one by one, so you pick a night and a venue instead of buying a pass. The cheapest seats start at $2.000. The 2027 bill has Thomas Ostermeier's Historia de la violencia and Milo Rau's El juicio Pelicot on it. There are also two shows from the Chilean puppet troupe 31 Minutos.

If you do not speak Spanish, this is still the easiest festival in the city to enjoy. The street pieces are walk-up, and you can filter the programme to free entry and build a whole day that costs nothing.

Creamfields at the Club Hípico

Creamfields Chile puts its stages on the turf of the Club Hípico de Santiago. It is a neoclassical racecourse just south-west of the centre, near Parque O'Higgins, with the Andes behind the grandstand.

The 2027 dates are not out yet, so check before you book anything around it. The last one ran over two days, 14 and 15 November 2026, with Calvin Harris, Charlotte de Witte and Hardwell at the top of the bill. Day tickets started at $92.000 in the earliest presale tier and climbed through the later ones.

The practical argument for it is that you stay in the city. You get to the racecourse by Metro and a short walk or taxi, with no shuttle out to a field.

Fiestas Patrias at Parque O'Higgins

La Gran Fonda de Chile fills Parque O'Higgins with ramadas, which are shelters built from wooden poles and eucalyptus branches, for the national holiday. The 18th and 19th of September are fixed every year. The 2027 dates are not out yet, and last year the fonda ran four days, from Thursday 17 to Sunday 20 September.

It opens daily from 12:00 to 02:00, so you can do a long afternoon or a full night. Entry is $14.950, and $11.500 for children aged 6 to 12 and visitors over 65. There is a covered cuecódromo, a dance floor for cueca, the national dance, and it runs all four days with Chilean food stalls and live music around it. Los Jaivas and Noche de Brujas played the stages last year.

This is the biggest fonda in the country, and the closest a visitor gets to the real national party. If your dates are nowhere near mid-September, forget it. It only exists for four days a year.

Before you book

Teatro a Mil sells night by night, so book the named productions as soon as the programme opens, and buy the November festival tickets before the cheaper tiers go. See the Santiago guide and the Santiago hotel search.
