About

Boston Calling Music Festival is a three-day festival held at the Harvard Athletic Complex in Allston, Massachusetts. Since 2013, it has grown into New England's largest music festival, drawing 40,000+ fans per day with a lineup that mixes rock, indie, hip-hop, and electronic acts. The urban setting — on Harvard's campus just minutes from downtown Boston — sets it apart from the rural camping festival model.
