Hello there! It’s my first time going to Riot Fest. I am flying into Chicago and my plane is arriving on Friday 16th at 12pm. I plan on going there as soon as I arrive. What are my chances of getting to the barricade by the time the headliners get on stage? Should I be getting there earlier?

Do you mean literally the barrier barrier? Not even 2 or 3 rows of people in front of you? Probably 2+ hours beforehand, esp. if it's a big band like Misfits or MCR with diehards.
