Today it was announced that DJ Trixie Mattel will bring her brand new Super Disco dance party to Lollapalooza this summer, following previously announced performances booked for Bonnaroo, Lightning In a Bottle, Outside Lands, Osheaga & Capitol Hill Block Party.

An evolution of Trixie’s massively successful DJ show Solid Pink Disco (read about that via Paper Magazine), the forthcoming Super Disco show captures the retro, fun essence of SPD but dials it up past 11, incorporating a multi-part science fiction narrative where Trixie Mattel lands on Earth to save humanity from itself (a message that takes an especially poignant focus in light of the current state of the world).

A full sci-fi epic, Trixie’s Super Disco DJ performances will be the highlight of festival season, featuring her largest live production and catalog of music Trixie has produced to date. “New tracks, remixes, bootlegs… While I still want to provide that sense of escapism, I’m spinning a narrative where love and humanity prevail over greed and automation. It’s higher stakes than anything I’ve done on the festival circuit before,” she shared.

"I’ve been consuming a lot of news, Star Trek, The Jetsons, reread Watchmen, and old sci-fi, so I knew I wanted a space-and-aliens theme. Musically, I’m leaning into what I love most: retro disco, funk, and funky house,” added Trixie. “Visually, it contrasts the 'worst parts of America'—personified by a male villain obsessed with the military, robotics, and greed—against Trixie, who hails from a pink jungle planet that values love and connection."
