Anyone that has been to a music festival knows that the schedule is never perfect. Your favorite artists may be performing at the same time, or you may have to run a mile across the venue to make it in time for the next artist you’re dying to see. Some attendees strategize so they can see the most artists possible; others stake out at a stage hours before their favorite artist performs to guarantee a prime spot. Miley Cyrus fans that are the latter ran into some trouble at Lollapalooza this past weekend during the set prior: Playboi Carti.

C’mon, Lollapalooza. After all who made this schedule? For an event that welcomes children and families, it is only common sense to also be smart about the arrangement of set times. Putting a rapper like Playboi Carti before a pop star like Miley Cyrus was not the move, and frankly it was dangerous. The Soundcloud rapper turned superstar is known for his crazy performances that get fans rowdy and moshing. Meanwhile Miley Cyrus’ fans are typically the complete opposite, with many that are young and defenseless.
The Miley Cyrus and Playboi Carti situation has caused commotion across the internet
We aren’t the only ones raising eyes at this, there’s been commotion all around the internet since the occasion. A girl on TikTok with the username @bathroomlanguage posted a video showing her battle scar after getting caught up in a Playboi Carti mosh pit before Miley Cyrus.
According to another Lollapalooza-goer, there were people passing out in the crowd, having seizures, and getting injured to the point of bleeding.
Others are taking humor from the situation, with memes making their way across social media
Some caught in the crossfire were “resurrected” by their lord and savior, Miley Cyrus
But some were just straight up pissed…
And not to mention, the crowd was enormous.
Hopefully this will become a lesson for the future of Lollapalooza, as well as other music festivals. In conclusion, if there’s anything to learn from this, it’s that if you aren’t into moshing, sets from artists like Playboi Carti are best to stay away from.
