Foo Fighters and Rage Against The Machine have been announced as the headliners of Boston Calling 2022.
The two heavyweights were originally set to headline the festival in 2020 but it was cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Next year’s event will now go ahead on May 27-29. A third headliner and further acts will be announced over the coming weeks.
“We couldn’t be happier to return in 2022 and deliver a full-scale festival with two of the world’s most celebrated rock bands as our headliners,” said festival co-founder and CEO Brian Appel.
