RISE AGAINST
It's been two years since the Chicago punk-rock band last visited Budapest, and now it's time for them to return with a banging show and the follow-up single to their latest album, Nowhere Generation, along with their greatest hits in Budapest Park on 13 August.

Schedule
Rise Against was formed in Chicago in 1999, and current members are Tim McIlrath (vocals, rhythm guitar), Joe Principe (bass, backing vocals), Zach Blair (lead guitar, backing vocals) and Brandon Barnes (drums, percussion). The quartet's first two albums were released on a small independent label, bringing them their first success in underground circles, before their big break came with Siren Song of the Counter Culture on a major label. Their next album, The Sufferer & The Witness, opened at number 10 on the Billboard 200, opening the door to success for subsequent albums. Rise Against often speak out about injustices in the world and are also keen to support good causes and organisations such as Amnesty International and PETA.
Budapest Park
Budapest Park, the biggest and coolest open air concert venue of the city hosts the cream of the crop in foreign and domestic mainstream music every year. At first glance, it might seem like the Park is very much out of town, but this is far from the truth - and since the soundsystem was completely renovated last season, we can only recommend the venue even more.
