Boston Calling is here. If you’re heading to the Harvard Athletic Complex (65 North Harvard St.) from Friday, May 24-Sunday, May 26, good news — we’ll be there with you.
Follow along on Instagram for live coverage of the festival of what’s new and what you can’t miss.
First up, check out the food line up for the 2024 festival featuring a variety of delicious eats.
While you’re on the festival grounds, don’t miss out on experiencing the House of Dunkin’ serving up free iced coffee, munchkins, and other giveaways; staying hydrated at the Liquid Death Country Club with a complimentary tallboy of water, airbrush tattoos, and “Horrorscope” readings; and keep your eyes open for the Happy Valley scavenger hunt for a chance to win prizes. Plus, free subs from Jersey Mike’s, pollinator flower seeds from Subaru, and two merch tents this year.
Bonus: Riding the ferris wheel supports Music Drives Us, which works to keep music in our schools.
