RIOT FEST 2026 CONFIRMED—AND THE CITY’S ALREADY LOSING IT OVER THE ‘NO PRICING’ RULE
Oh, here we go again. Just saw the announcement for Riot Fest 2026, and apparently they’re doubling down on the “no drink pricing” nonsense again. No prices listed anywhere, just a barcode to scan on your phone. Common sense says if you gotta scan a code to see if a hot dog costs a kidney or a mortgage payment, you already lost. My neighbor’s kid tried to buy a water last year and ended up with a $18 charge for a bottle of tap. What’s next, paying for air to breathe in the mosh pit? Some of us remember when Riot Fest meant cheap beer and punk ethics, not a 5G-powered grab for your wallet. If this is the plan for 2026, I’m saving my cash for a backyard grill session. Who’s with me?
