Ariana Grande is reportedly set to headline Lollapalooza.

Although the lineup won't be confirmed until the third week of March, Variety reports that Grande has been booked for the festival.

As previously announced, she will also headline Coachella in April. It has since been confirmed that Grande will reschedule several dates on her Sweetener tour to accommodate the Coachella booking, which saw her step in as a last-minute replacement after Kanye West dropped out, reportedly over disagreements about the construction of a giant dome stage.

Shows that were scheduled to take place in eight cities in April have now been moved to June and July, while dates in Omaha and Raleigh have been cancelled outright.

Grande's Chicago shows will now take place 4-5 June, Indianapolis on 29 June, Columbus on 1 July, Milwaukee on 5 July, St Louis on 6 July, St Paul on 8 July, Denver on 11 July, and Salt Lake City on 13 July.

A stop at Las Vegas's T-Mobile Arena on 11 May has also been added, after Grande was forced to cancel a smaller show in the city before New Year's Eve due to illness.

Lollapalooza will take place in Chicago's Grant Park on 1-4 August. The Sweetener tour is set to begin 18 March in Albany.

A representative for Grande has been contacted for comment.
