Boston Calling Music Festival

Join thousands of music fans in the city of Boston at its iconic event, the Boston Calling Music Festival! Since 2013, it has been held twice annually, in May and September, at City Hall Plaza. In 2017 alone, nearly 40,000 revelers attended this trendy festival to experience an unforgettable atmosphere.

In May 2016, Boston Calling Music Festival made a groundbreaking decision to move its festival location from its original site to the Harvard Athletic Complex in Allston. By transitioning into one large annual event, adding different music stages, and introducing stand-up comedy acts, this new space has created a unique opportunity for attendees of all ages!

Now an iconic part of the New England music scene, Boston Calling delivers a winning lineup each year with sensational indie rock, hip-hop acts, and renowned performers. Mark your calendars for 26-28 May 2023 to experience this amazing event!

Aaron Dessner of The National and Crash Line Productions, a Boston-based entertainment production company, have come together to curate an impressive lineup for the annual Boston Calling Music Festival. Previous years have hosted A-list performers like Sia, Beck, Of Monsters and Men, Kendrick Lamar, Eminem, Twenty One Pilots, Travis Scott, and Tame Impala Metallica - to name a few!
