Riot Fest has announced its new 2021 lineup following last year’s cancellation. The festival returns to Chicago’s Douglass Park this September 17-19 with headliners Nine Inch Nails, The Smashing Pumpkins, Run The Jewels and Pixies. New additions for this September’s festival include Faith No More, a recently reunited Mr. Bungle, DEVO, NOFX, Dinosaur Jr., The Ghost Inside, Motion City Soundtrack, along with many others.
Along with the 2021 lineup announcement, the festival organizers have already confirmed the return of My Chemical Romance to 2022’s festival, set for September 16-18, 2022, so if you wanted to see this in 2020 you’ll have to wait a year and go ahead and secure your tickets now.
As a treat to fans, previous ticket holders can purchase 2022 passes at a special price for a limited time; ticket transfers to next year, refunds, and layaway options are also available (more info is available on Riot Fest’s website).
