The 2020 Boston Calling festival has been canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Headliners for the three-day event, which was set for May 22-24 at the Harvard Athletic Complex, included Red Hot Chili Peppers and Foo Fighters, as well as the reunited Rage Against the Machine.
Other artists on the bill included ex-Oasis singer Liam Gallagher and a variety of modern-rock and alternative-rock acts.
“We are heartbroken,” festival organizers say in a statement. “However, the health and safety of our audience, artists, partners, vendors, first responders, and staff are of the utmost importance to us, and we felt that this was the only acceptable way forward.”
Ticket-holders may receive refunds, or transfer their tickets to the 2021 festival.
