Call your girlfriend — this Memorial Day weekend, there’s going to be a massive Saturday night dance party at City Hall Plaza. And well, Friday and Sunday, too.
Boston Calling Music Festival has released the daily lineup for its Spring 2016 edition, and each night’s headliners to the May 27, 29, and 29 mega-party at City Hall Plaza should have all of downtown getting down. Swedish electro-pop queen Robyn will close the Saturday night slate (with warm-ups from ODESZA, Miike Snow, City and Colour, Courtney Barnett, and more), while Grammy-nominated UK dance duo Disclosure will wrap Sunday’s party (before turns from Haim, Janelle Monáe, Elle King, The Front Bottoms, and others).
A few weeks ago, it was revealed that Australian singer Sia would cap off the opening Friday night party.
To celebrate the day schedules, Boston Calling is putting a limited number of single-day tickets on sale Friday, February 19 at 10 a.m. via bostoncalling.com.
Local performers include guitar-rock upstarts Palehound on Saturday and future hip-hop superstar Michael Christmas on Sunday.
The full schedules shake out like this…
Friday May 27: Sia, Sufjan Stevens, Lisa Hannigan and Aaron Dessner
Saturday May 28: Robyn, ODESZA, Miike Snow, City and Colour, Courtney Barnett, BØRNS, The Vaccines, Battles, Lizzo, Palehound
