Today, Riot Fest announced the day to day breakdown of its impressive 2014 lineup. The final three-day megaconcert of the summer, Riot Fest is again being held in Humboldt Park, September 12–14. Yep, it is still in a large green space, unlike the subsequent Denver edition, which recently lost its venue and had to relocate to the Broncos' parking lot.
With the National, Flaming Lips, Wu-Tang Clan, Metric and more, the Saturday bill looks to be the most welcoming to those who didn't grow up skateboarding. If you can only commit to one day, that seems to be it. Though Sunday is pretty awesome, too…
Single day tickets are $69.98—$139.98.
