Improvements for 2025
Following complaints about overcrowding and safety issues during the 2024 festival, organizers have announced significant changes for 2025:
- The Green and Red stages will merge into a single, world-class rotating stage, offering better views, more space, and an enhanced audio-visual experience.
- Additional water stations will be installed to keep attendees hydrated.
- A new air-conditioned indoor arena space will provide a cool, comfortable retreat from the outdoor heat.
“These changes are designed to ensure a safer and more enjoyable experience for all attendees,” Boston Calling said in a statement.
