Boston Calling Spring 2016 Lineup Announcement

By now, it’s evident the organizers behind Boston Calling aren’t ones to simply announce the lineup. Though there was no city-wide scavenger hunt for vinyl this time around, the artists for the spring 2016 festival have been slowly released to early-bird ticket buyers through a series of maps (see below).

The festival will take place on May 27, 28 and 29 and tickets go on sale this Friday, January 15. A special discounted rate will be available for the first 24 hours, with general admission priced at $170.

Check out the lineup below; it’s exciting to see it’s packed with strong female acts:
