Riot Fest has announced its 2024 dates.

The music festival will take place Sept. 20-22 at Douglass Park, with organizers noting the dates are one week later than 2023 to “alleviate traffic congestion within the Little Village and North Lawndale communities during the celebrations for Mexican Independence Day.”

A holiday ticket presale starts at noon Dec. 14 at tixr.com for three-day passes to the festival, while supplies last.

As part of a community outreach initiative, festival organizers in partnership with 24th Ward Alderwoman Monique Scott’s office, will be distributing toys to students of Sumner Math and Science Community Academy (4320 W 5th Ave.) on Dec. 18 and Crown Community Academy of Fine Arts (2128 S. St. Louis Ave.) on Dec. 19.

A coat/warm outerwear drive in conjunction with the Douglass Park Advisory Council is currently underway.

The lineups and schedules for the three-day festival will be released at a later date.
