Lollapalooza Chile 2025 Experience: We Make Noise and the Power of Community

We Make Noise at Lollalove – Lollapalooza Chile 2025

Three days of music, sunshine, and thousands of people vibing at Parque Cerrillos. In that context, Noise & Love became a space for convergence beyond music. From our We Make Noise Santiago stand, we co-created a powerful and safe environment alongside LollaLove, hosting organizations, live talks, and performances—celebrating love in all its forms.

Elevating unheard voices

 We amplified voices long silenced in the music industry—women, queer people, technicians, producers, managers, artists, and others from underrepresented communities. We recorded, laughed, listened, and were moved by stories told amid festival chaos, cables, cameras, and social media buzz under #Lollalove.

An intimate space in a noisy world

 Each guest brought a story: beginnings, struggles, victories, and hopes for transforming the industry. Some had performed on major stages, others worked behind them. All left something valuable behind. This initiative aimed to recognize their contributions—technical, emotional, and cultural.

Beyond the festival: what remains

The work didn’t end after those three days. We've since published over 18 episodes on Spotify and YouTube. Yet, what truly mattered was the lived experience—shared connection, mutual recognition, and a sense of belonging. Amid the noise, we made room for deep listening.

Voices from the WMN Santiago team

Erika Salinas Fernández – Content Creator & Community Manager

“Being at Lollapalooza 2025 with We Make Noise was unforgettable. I led digital art direction with Bianca Sartori. We built a cohesive, diverse narrative. It wasn’t easy, but we made it with love.”

Bianca Sartori – Graphic Designer

 “Designing the We Make Noise stand was a transformative experience. We created a visually inclusive space through bold type, vibrant colors, and intentional design. It wasn’t just visual—it was activist work.”

Valentina Montecinos – Video & Photography Director

 “Capturing each interview’s energy was a gift. There were technical setbacks, but the team overcame them with heart. I leave inspired by the community we built.”

Ayelén Gajardo – Audio Assistant

 “I was welcomed and respected as a volunteer and student. These were long, intense days—but they were full of meaning and action. We raised awareness and formed real connections.”

When the mic becomes transformation

 What started as an experiment became a community. When a mic is given to those who rarely have one, it becomes more than communication—it becomes pure transformation. What we built was real, deep, and hopeful.

We're still making noise

 Thanks to all who spoke, listened, and stood with us. Special thanks to the women and queer folks who keep making noise and challenging patriarchal norms every single day.
