Riot Fest officially moving to SeatGeek Stadium, Headliners announced

The highly anticipated lineup for Riot Fest — which will move from Chicago’s Douglass Park to suburban Bridgeview and become “RiotLand” for 2024 — is officially out.

According to event organizers, headliners for the festival, set for Sept. 20-22 at SeatGeek Stadium include Fall Out Boy, Beck, Slayer, The Offspring, Public Enemy, Bright Eyes, St. Vincent, Sublime, Rob Zombie, The Marley Brothers and Dr. Dog.

Dozens of other artists are set to also perform, including Spoon, The Hives, Manchester Orchestra, Sum 41, Cypress Hill, Buzzcocks, Something Corporate and more. The full lineup can be found here, and two and three-day tickets currently on sale.

The event’s 2024 lineup and new location came hours after the popular Chicago festival released a video message saying it would no longer take place at Douglass Park, the event’s West Side home for the past nine years.

“Riot Fest will be leaving Douglass Park,” the video message posted to Riot Fest’s social media pages read in part. “And – allow me to be as clear as the azure sky of the deepest summer – our exodus is solely because of the Chicago Park District. Their lack of care for the community, you and us, ultimately left us no choice.”

The message went on to say that this year Chicago’s Riot Fest will become “RiotLand.”

“Though our curtains may have closed in Douglass Park, another one has opened,” the message went on to say. “It’s called RiotLand. It’s something like you’ve never seen before. And it’s far overdue.”

The three-day music festival began in 2005, originally using a combination of venues before it moved to Chicago’s Humboldt Park. In 2015, the festival moved to Douglass Park but in recent years has become the subject of community pushback, including petitions to remove the festival from the park.

In a statement emailed to NBC Chicago overnight, the Chicago Park District said the district had worked “tirelessly to strike a balance between community interests and our Special Events organizers.”
