Boston Calling

May 20, 2024 Michael Gutierrez

Boston Calling 2024 returns to Lower Allston Friday, 24 through Sunday, 26 May. A summer fest-style fest in spring time, just as schools get out and the hard seltzer crowd is ready to stop giving a fuuuuuuck.

You can stop giving a fuuuuuck too, and join the party.

The 3-Day Platinum VIP tickets are available for the low cost of $2,899. No hidden fees!

With top notch international, national, and local acts gracing four stages, a goddamn ferris wheel, plus a shitload of weird corporate add-ons like the White Claw Shore Club, a two-story Dunkin’ Donuts tourist trap (“House of Dunkin’”), and Chase credit cardholders VIP benefits galore, there’s something for every deranged sensibility.

You like Ed Sheeran? You motherfucking got Ed Sheeran.

But don’t miss out on a strong middle class at the festival with acts like Khruangbin, Alvvays (a late add, which doesn’t seem to be updated on the main lineup poster, but can be found on the schedule), Blondshell, and more. Plus, Trey Anastasio for the Phishheads.

Here are some must-hit highlights, including a slew of strong local acts making an appearance at the big show.
