Yes, you read that right.
Bet you thought we were joking, huh? Well joke’s on you because the lineup will be coming out later this month on April 23 at 10:00AM CDT.
Mark your calendars, set your alarms, wash your ass, and get ready to celebrate 20 years with us.
Limited Final Presale Tickets

We’ve got a limited number of presale tickets up right now before our lineup comes out. Wasn’t one of your resolutions this year to stop procrastinating? Maybe you should start now…

And, don’t forget to download the Riot Fest App to get all of our 20th anniversary updates (like the lineup!!) before all your friends.
Riot Fest Secures Multi-Year Deal with Chicago Park District

Thanks to a new multi-year agreement with the Chicago Park District, and with the support of Alderwoman Monique Scott and the Mayor’s Office, Riot Fest will remain in Chicago’s own Douglass Park.
Within this deal, the Park District alongside Riot Fest have agreed on a 30% of total event-related revenue will be reinvested into Douglass Park, opposed to the 10% from previous years.
Since 2015, Riot Fest’s connection to Douglass Park has extended far beyond the festival weekend. Through our Beyond the Fest initiative, we’ve been able to support and be involved in the community year-round.
