Riot City

Hailing from Canada, RIOT CITY embody the spirit of hard rockin’ heavy metal in the vein of the NWOBHM greats we all know and love. They’re bringing their sweat-dripping show to Roadburn to help us kick the festival off in unforgettable fashion. Riot City will turn Tilburg into a neon-lit heavy metal utopia for one night only as they descend upon The Spark. 

If you were in doubt – it’s time to pack your leathers and hit the road, a heavy metal welcome awaits you. With your shades firmly on and your fist in the air, Riot City will provide the perfect soundtrack to get your blood pumping and your head banging. If you want to pre-empt the metal mayhem that awaits you, you can immerse yourself in Riot City’s 2022 release Electric Elite for a taste of what’s to come. 

Of their Roadburn show, they tell us:
“In what will be our debut show in the Netherlands, we are honoured for it to be at Roadburn Festival. Expect our first strike on your territory to an uncontrolled raging night of blazing Canadian Heavy Metal. We are preparing to Burn the Night over Tilburg, join us!”

Embrace all that is heavy, Riot City are here to shake our foundations.
