As part of their ongoing campaign to fight boredom and encourage super-fun times, Riot Fest announces a series of great shows taking place post-fest nightly as well as a Sunday matinee. Concord Music Hall will host Sublime with Rome and Cobra Lounge has The Lawrence Arms, Against Me! and Quicksand. Andrew W.K. and Rocket From the Crypt will be rocking Double Door along with Peter Hook and the Light, and the Lillingtons will rise with the sun and hit Beat Kitchen for a special brunch show.
Show info is below, ticketing information is here.
On a mission to create a punk rock state fair, this amazing 3-day festival takes place in historic Humboldt Park in Chicago, where a Ferris wheel, tilt-a-whirl, fire eaters, Lucha Libre and other attractions nestle in a gorgeous setting. Lagoons, shade trees and lovely fields yield to a stunning view of the Chicago skyline.
