The festival marks Yellowcard ‘s first live show in over five years
The Riot Fest lineup is here, and it’s stacked. The three-day jaunt boasts headliners My Chemical Romance, Misfits, and Nine Inch Nails. The lineup also features pop-punk heroes Yellowcard, who are returning to the stage for the first time since announcing their retirement over five years ago.
“It has been more than 5 years since we have shared a stage together,” Yellowcard said in a statement. “When we stepped away in 2017, all of us thought it was truly the end. However our journey together continues to surprise us. We are so excited to share that we will be playing on September 17, 2022 at Riot Fest in Chicago, IL. We can’t wait to sing with you again.”
