After much speculation about the fate of the 2018 Riot Fest music festival slated for Sept. 14-16 at Douglas Park, organizers on Fridays put to rest all the rumors and trepidation by releasing the long-awaited full lineup, daily schedule and single-day ticket sales.

The biggest news surrounding the fest came about recently with the news that Blink 182 would not be appearing at the festival due to health issues concerning drummer Travis Barker. The band was replaced by the addition of Weezer, Run the Jewels, and Taking Back Sunday. Also announced Friday are the additions of Street Dogs, the Dangerous Summer, Beach Rats, Just Friends, Archie Powell & the Exports, Typesetter, and Blood People.

Friday, Saturday and Sunday single-day tickets are now available, as are two-day passes. Douglas Park is located at 1401 S. Sacramento.
