Metallica, The Strokes, And Foo Fighters To Headline Boston Calling Festival

The celebration of the return of the annual Boston Calling festival called for three of rock’s more iconic bands as headliners. Metallica, The Strokes, and Nine Inch Nails (replacing Foo Fighters) kick-off to the annual three-day festival at the Harvard Athletic Complex. The once bi-annual event will take place on Memorial Day Weekend, May 27-29, 2022.

Rock and roll icons, Metallica, alternative rockers The Strokes, and Rock & Roll Hall of Famers Nine Inch Nails are just some of the big names set to perform at the three-day festival, with an additional 50-plus performers set to rock the stage.

The largest collection of regional talent is set to perform. That includes a mix of globally recognized diverse music stars such as Rüfüs Du Sol, Weezer, HAIM, Run The Jewels, Glass Animals, and many more.

Boston Calling will showcase 18 acts with New England ties that will perform throughout the 3-day weekend, such as Van Buren Records, Cam Meekins, Born Without Bones, Avenue, Ali McGuirk, Crooked Coast, Aaron and the Lord, Miranda Rae, Coral Moons, Paper Tigers, Dutch Tulips, The Chelsea Curve, Frances Forever, Oompa, Julie Rhodes, Charlotte Sands, Pom Pom Squad and Cliff Notez.

“We are so thrilled to bring Boston Calling back, and we cannot thank our loyal fans enough for supporting us as we navigated the pandemic. This year’s lineup is particularly special for us. It not only signifies a return to the things we love, but it also celebrates some of the world’s most renowned acts, exciting up-and-comers, and Boston’s talented music scene…”
