Honestly guaranteed rate is an interesting call. I kinda can't imagine they announce the venue is outside of the city but if it is it's prob seatgeek. they can move the red stars game I dont think it would be super controversial

the average attendance for the red stars is a fair bit under 5k and thats tickets sold not scanned they would be thrilled to play anywhere else.

The whole " choose your own adventure" thing almost makes me think they are going back into venues.

Fingers crossed for SeatGeek (or Grant Park) Edit: people on the subreddit are suggesting six flags or Brookfield zoo as the new locations...

Depending where they move it, this could be the death knell for Riot Fest. They are thinly staffed and struggle to make it work each year at Douglass. Not sure they will be able to handle logistics elsewhere, unless it is an established venue, like Fucking SeatGeek.
Regardless, lineup better be fire. Hope they can call in some friends of the fest to help them out.

www.nbcchicago.com/news/chicago-riot-fest-lineup-riot-land-announcement-chicago-park-district-douglass-park/3461587/?amp=1In a statement emailed to NBC Chicago overnight, the Chicago Park District said the district had worked "tirelessly to strike a balance between community interests and our Special Events organizers." "Community voices are critical to our decision-making process, which is why a comprehensive community engagement process is a necessary component in evaluating a permit application," the statement read in part. "Last year, Riot Fest organizers completed this process successfully, received a permit and hosted their event in Douglass Park." The full statement from the Park District can be found below. The Chicago Park District has learned indirectly that the organizers of Riot Fest have stated they do not intend to go forward with their event in Douglass Park this September. The permit application for the event has not been withdrawn, and in fact it is currently pending provisional approval by the Park District Board of Commissioners. This approval process by the Board is one that was established two years ago for Special Events Permit Review and ensures that organizers engage community to get feedback about impact to community and dialogue about event production adjustments that should be considered to address community concerns. The Chicago Park District has worked tirelessly to strike a balance between community interests and our Special Events organizers. Community voices are critical to our decision-making process, which is why a comprehensive community engagement process is a necessary component in evaluating a permit application. Last year, Riot Fest organizers completed this process successfully, received a permit and hosted their event in Douglass Park. For large-scale events our top priorities are to minimize the impact on the community, protect our park assets and ensure the organizers are planning a safe and well-organized event. It is imperative that an event organizer work with and understand the community in which they are hosting an event. Prior to Board approval, we require that they engage local residents, community organizations, elected officials, businesses and the Park Advisory Council to provide detailed information pertaining to the event. This year, the Chicago Park District reinforced its commitment to community by announcing the creation of a new initiative to reinvest a portion of event revenue fund directly back to the parks that host special events with 3,000 or more attendees. Parks hosting multi-day events with 3,000 or more guests, will receive a direct re-investment of 10 percent of the permit fees collected from event organizers in addition to any park restoration fees. A key part of the initiative are the engagement opportunities that residents will be invited to attend to provide feedback on the potential capital improvement projects.
