Riot Fest is just under a month away and we're already itching to make the trip to Douglas Park and catch sets by the festival's must-see acts. Today, we got a look at the list of official aftershows, which will take place at Double Door, Bottom Lounge, Cobra Lounge, Concord Music Hall and House of Blues. Highlights of the post-fest schedule include hardcore legends Drive Like Jehu at Bottom Lounge (Sept 11) and local punk legends Alkaline Trio and Naked Raygun at Concord Music Hall (Sept 13).

Organizers also released a festival map, confirming that the event will take over the portion of Douglas Park south of Ogden Avenue. Riot Fest is setting up eight stages, plenty of carnival rides, a mini golf course and some "Super VIP" viewing areas—hopefully the new footprint will remedy the bottlenecks that plagued last year's layout in Humboldt Park. 

You'll need to act quick if you want to see Taking Back Sunday play an extremely intimate set at Cobra Lounge—tickets for all Riot Fest aftershows go on sale today (Aug 13) at noon. Take a look at the full lineup and the official festival map below.
