The line up for Riot Fest 2012 was released Tuesday with hometown boys Rise Against and fan favorites The Offspring topping the bill. This year’s line up is extremely impressive with additions of Iggy & The Stooges, Elvis Costello, A Day to Remember, Coheed & Cambria, Dropkick Murphy’s, Gaslight Anthem, Alkaline Trio, Awolnation and many more.
The eighth annual festival kicks off Friday night September 14th inside the Congress Theatre and continues all day Saturday and Sunday September 15th & 16th outdoors at Humboldt Park in Chicago.
2-day passes are on sale right now for $36 a piece but will continue to rise (just like Lollapalooza) as we get closer to the festival. For more information, go to http://www.riotfest.com/Chicago.
