From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Uproar Festival , also called the Rockstar Energy Drink Uproar Festival , is an annual hard rock /heavy metal tour inaugurated in 2010 by John Reese and sponsored by Rockstar Energy Drink . The tour was also created by John Oakes, Darryl Eaton and Ryan Harlacher from the Creative Artists Agency , and Perry Lavoisne from Live Nation .[ 1] Mayhem Festival and the Taste of Chaos tour. Uproar Festival is the replacement for Reese's Taste of Chaos tour, as he was "running out of bands that fit within the profile of what Taste of Chaos was."[ 2]
Uproar Festival hosted a number of other activities other than live bands.
On May 17, 2011, the 2011 lineup was announced. The tour will start on August 26, 2011 and end on October 15, 2011.
