In pictures: Riot Fest 2024

This past weekend, Slayer made headlines for reuniting onstage at Riot Fest for the first time in five years. But the iconic Chicago bash delivered so much more than that: bringing together a spot-on line-up of everything from rising hardcore stars to emo veterans at Douglass Park.

Joining Slayer atop the Riot Fest 2024 bill were headliners Fall Out Boy – once again delivering their genius Eras Tour-style show that they first debuted at Download in the summer, as well as a cameo from fellow hometown hero Tim McIlrath – while elsewhere the bill included a NOFX triple-whammy, huge sets by Rob Zombie, Lamb Of God, Mastodon, L.S. Dunes and so much more. Get stuck in to all the action with our gallery from the festival now…
