Nine Inch Nails will headline Riot Fest 2021!

Festival organizers recently announced more bands to its lineup, which was partially unveiled last year. Other headliners include Smashing Pumpkins and Run The Jewels.

New additions to the lineup include Mr. Bungle, DEVO, NOFX, Dinosaur Jr., and Motion City Soundtrack. Many of the acts announced last year will return this year, including Alex G, PUP, Taking Back Sunday, Best Coast, Les Savy Fav, Sublime With Rome, New Found Glory, Thursday, White Lung, KennyHoopla, Fishbone, Fucked Up, Meet Me @ The Altar, Lupe Fiasco and Vic Mensa. More acts will be announced next week.

“We’ve missed you and we can’t wait to see you this year (and/or next year!) September 15–17, 2021 in Douglass Park, Chicago,” Riot Fest writes. “See you real soon…”
