Aaron and Tankboy loved Riot Fest Chicago 2012 and, judging from the crowds, so did music lovers across the area. So grab your wallets and pull out your credit cards because Riot Fest's organizers announced an early bird holiday sale of 3-Day & 3-Day VIP passes today.

Riot Fest Chicago 2013 is scheduled for Sept. 13-15 at Humboldt Park once again and this sale will almost certainly sell out. Three-day passes cost $89 and three-day VIP passes will run you $189. If you want to save on service fees, you can buy your tickets directly at the Congress Theater (2135 N. Milwaukee Ave.), Noon - 5 p.m. Nov. 23 - 30 (closed Sunday), and to be determined times Dec. 1-8. You may also email the Congress Theater via email here.

Riot Fest also advertised the Music Garage as a second location to buy these passes, but a quick phone call there indicated they're currently out of the loop regarding the announcement. So stick with the Congress or Ticketfly right now.
