GRANT PARK — Paul McCartney, Metallica and Florence and the Machine will headline the 2015 Lollapalooza music festival in Grant Park.

Other acts include Sam Smith, Kid Cudi, Alabama Shakes and more. Check out the full lineup:

This summer marks the 10th time Grant Park will host the festival, which was founded by Jane's Addiction frontman Perry Farrell and has its roots in alternative rock. Lollapalooza has since broadened its horizons to the mainstream, with last year's headliners including Outkast, Eminem, and Kings of Leon.

This year the festival will run from July 31 to Aug. 2, and three-day Lollapalooza passes sold out within 45 minutes Tuesday morning. Some unlucky concertgoers promptly took to Twitter to complain about payment processing.

Single-day passes, available for $110, will go on sale at 10 a.m. Visit the Lollapalooza website to learn more.
