Because three days in Douglass Park from sun up to sun down is just not enough time to digest all the best music, Riot Fest has announced their late night after show lineup for the 2026 year.
The shows are starting early again this year, on Thursday, September 17th with Sugar, J Robbins, and Violet Grohl at the Metro. The same night, there’s Black Flag and The Crosses on the other side of town at Reggies.
On Friday the 18th, practically the whole city will be celebrating post-festival with shows. Yard Act and The Armed will be playing at Cobra Lounge. Thrice and Hot Rod Circuit will be at Bottom Lounge. Pup and Destroy Boys will be over at the Metro. The Beths will be at Concord while Mariachi El Bronx plays at Reggies. Chat Pile and Soul Glo will be at Empty Bottle.
On Saturday, Mom Jeans, the Bouncing Souls, Bratmobile, Motion City Soundtrack, and Alkaline Trio will be headlining various shows. William Shatner will also be hosting a DJ set at Park West. There will be a movie screening of “Who’s Watching.”
And, to round out the weekend, there’s The Flatliners with Dave Hause at Cobra Lounge and Pretty Girls Make Graves at Empty Bottle.
