Riot Fest 2019
Riot Fest never seems to disappoint with their lineups. In recent years, we’ve seen The Original Misfits, Nine Inch Nails, Beck, No Doubt, and System of a Down perform at Douglas Park. Additionally, for a city fest it is extremely easy to navigate. Though it is an alternative rock festival, everyone is there for a good time and good vibes.
Tickets for Riot Fest are on sale now. Prices start at $129 plus fees for a 3-day pass.
