RIOT FEST 2009 ANNOUNCED! CHICAGO AND LOS ANGELES!
Jun. 03, 2009
Screeching Weasel. Cock Sparrer. Dead Milkmen. NOFX. Murder City Devils. Alkaline Trio. Literally dozens more in Chicago this fall.
October 7-11, 2009. Chicago, Illinois. Congress Theater. Metro. Double Door. Subterranean. Cobra Lounge. Secret location.
November 12-14. Los Angeles, California. The Palladium. The Wiltern Theater. The Key Club. The Roxy.
That's right ladies and gentleman the day has finally arrived where we can let the details flow freely from Riot Fest HQ. Five days of complete and utter mayhem will desend upon Chicago this October, then a month later we're taking over Los Angeles for three full days. We'll announce more details for LA in the coming weeks as the punk rock version of manifest destiny gets closer.
This is by far the most ambitious project we've undertaken yet and we want you all along for the ride. Over the coming months we will be announcing full lineups and schedules for both versions of Riot Fest, and perhaps best of all, we're doing secret shows in and around Chicago this summer and fall. Pay attention to details friends, you won't want to miss anything we're doing over the next six months.
A limited quantity of five day passes for Chicago can be purchased from this link right here. They go on sale Saturday June 6th at noon.
Your chums,
Riot Fest
