The festival exposed yet another division Tuesday as residents both welcomed and opposed the donation.

Citizens Against Riot Fest disputed statements saying there was community support for the music fest.

Alds. Moreno and Maldonado are on opposite sides of a territorial dispute — not for the first time.

But Riot Fest owner is "100 percent confident" the concert will stay in Humboldt Park.

A conversation, long brewing in the neighborhood, made its way to the forefront Thursday.

Speculation that the three-day fest will leave the neighborhood has reached a peak.

After completing repairs in Humboldt Park, Riot Fest organizers have one more bit of good news.

“We are not carpetbaggers,” Riot Fest's founder said of the foundation. "This is not us pipe dreaming.”

The turkeys were donated by Riot Fest to give out to 26th Ward families in need.

The fate of the concert had been uncertain as the Congress Theater remained closed.

Riot Festival co-founder Mike Petryshyn watched his small punk fest turn into a big Chicago attraction.
