We at Riot Fest have a long tradition of celebrating (or anti-celebrating) Valentine’s Day. This year, we’re giving you the opportunity to take something crappy and turn it into something great: Riot Fest tickets.
For this contest, tell us about your certified Crappy Ex to be entered to win a pair of Riot Fest 2024 VIP tickets. We’ll share some of the craziest stories on Valentine’s Day so we can all celebrate in your past misery together…because that’s what Valentine’s Day is all about!
We’re choosing ONE entrant to win a pair of VIP tickets to Riot Fest 2024. As a bonus, you’ll also get bragging rights for all of 2024, which would be a weird thing to brag about, but hey everyone has to be the best at something.

PICKING A WINNER
One (1) winner will be chosen by the Riot Fest staff, who are also experts on shitty people. (We get a lot of customer support emails.)
The winner’s “Ex,” whoever they are, will have a real portapotty named after them at Riot Fest, and maybe we’ll let people write mean messages with a Sharpie on it. I don’t know if we can do that because September is a long ways away, but we’re strongly considering it.
You don’t get private access (toilets are for everyone!), but the winner will receive a pair of 3-Day Riot Fest 2024 VIP tickets.
There’s no need for creativity in this contest because we’re going to name the portapotty after your Ex. (First name only!) You will have to submit to us why you think your Ex is THE WORST, and deserving a being shit on/in all weekend long at Riot Fest.
