The festival this year will also offer what its organizers are describing as a “choose your own adventure” experience its calling RiotLand. This includes themed areas, activities, and “activation experiences.” These include a Q101 Radio Tower, NOFX World, a Cabret Metro Stage, AAA Stage, Kevin Smith Tribute Zones (a recreation of the Clerks convenience store), and a casino stage. Other oddities include “Butter Stamos” and “Nihilist Arby’s.” And if you love Riot Fest so much, why don’t you marry it — or at least get married at it, since they’ll have a wedding chapel on site.
Festival organizer Riot Mike posted a video message to his fans explaining why they’re doing RiotLand this year. “Without you — the fans — there would be no soul to what we do,” he said.
