Riot Fest announces lineup by day, single day tickets
Chicago, IL’s Riot Fest just added Run the Jewels, Taking Back Sunday and Weezer to their lineup to replace blink-182, who cancelled their fall tour for health reasons, and now they’ve announced the lineup by day for the festival, which returns to Douglas Park September 14-16. Friday (9/14) is headlined by Weezer, Saturday (9/15) is headlined by Beck, and on Sunday (9/16) it’s Run the Jewels and Incubus. See the full lineup by day below.
Three-day passes to Riot Fest are on sale, and now single day passes for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday are also available for purchase.
Riot Fest also announced their lineup of late night shows, including Bad Religion, Hot Snakes, Face to Face, and Bouncing Souls.
Continuing with Riot Fest tradition, some artists will perform classic albums in full at the festival: this year it’s Bad Religion (Suffer) Cypress Hill (Black Sunday), Digable Planets (Reachin’ (A New Refutation of Time and Space)), Fear (The Record), Lagwagon (Let’s Talk About Feelings), Spitalfield (Remember Right Now), and Suicidal Tendencies (their self-titled debut).
