What is the KU LEAP Immersion Program?
The immersion experience is an all-expenses paid venture to the Lollapalooza Music Festival in Chicago. Participants will embark on a guided experience involving venue tours, discussions, and one-on-one Q&A sessions with industry professionals and personnel that make the event happen.
What should I be prepared for?
Additional information will be supplied to candidates upon selection. Applicants should have a clear schedule from July 30 - August 5, and be capable of spending 10-14 hours outdoors each day, be able to spend significant time walking and in the elements. Applicants should have appropriate ID to travel domestically in the US as well as a working cell phone, and be able to confirm participation upon invitation in early May.
Note: This is a guided experience. There will be free time available as well as times to sit, rest and observe. You will have a credential that allows back-of-house access to some sensitive and restricted areas. Should one elect to not participate upon arriving in Chicago that credential will be deactivated, hotel reservation canceled, meals and expenses withdrawn. This experience is designed to be informative and benefit you. In short, if you bail, you’re on your own.
