    No TBS or Gwar?? I feel like they’re staples to Riot Fest haha. Would love to see the Foo’s.

    Bought earlybird tickets last night and I am SO stoked with this lineup!

    This'll be my first Riot Fest in over a decade — hopefully my aging body is still able to run from stage to stage lol

    who told you this room exists? Supporter

    I got lucky with those early bird tickets too. My friends were sitting right next to me and ended up paying $50 more. Was very excited to see the lineup when I woke up today. See ya there!

    Also don't sleep on Caroline Rose. I've seen her a few times, including Riot Fest in 2019 and just recently this tour.

    I assumed the AAR / NFG tour would be a part of the Riot lineup since there was no Chicago date for that and they're off that weekend. Is there typically a second lineup announcement or is this about it?
