Studio 52 is a community artist space located in the heart of Allston, and is proud to support the Boston music scene and local artist community.


Boston Calling is here, and now we can set our watches to the performances.

The festival unveiled the set times for its full slate of 60-something scheduled performances at the Harvard Athletic Complex, starting with Charly Bliss and This Is The Kit on Friday afternoon (May 25) all the way through Eminem on Sunday night (May 27). Feast your eyes on the full list of times and players below.

This year’s Boston Calling is headlined by Eminem, The Killers, and Jack White, bolstered by a lineup featuring Alvvays, Big Thief, Brockhampton, Tyler, The Creator, Khalid, The National, Royal Blood, and others. On the local front, Boston is repped by Belly, Weakened Friends, and STL GLD. Cousin Stizz was added this week as a replacement for Stormzy.

There is also a series of special programming curated by Natalie Portman and an enhanced food menu, on-site arts component, and updated layout.

Gates open at 2:30 p.m. on Friday May 25, and at noon on Saturday, May 26, and Sunday, May 27.
