What can I bring? What should I leave at home?

The festival has a full bag policy, meaning all bags will be searched before entry. Fans are allowed to bring small clutch purses and fanny packs that are 6 X 9 inches or smaller, don’t have to be transparent, and can have more than one pocket. However, all other bags that are larger than 6 X 9 inches must not exceed 12 X 6 X 12 inches and must be transparent.

Attendees are also allowed to bring hydration packs that don’t need to be clear, but cannot have more than two total pockets, plus must be emptied of all liquids prior to entry. Reusable bottles are permitted as well, but must be emptied before entering the festival. Water stations will be available onsite to refill bottles and hydration packs.

Additionally, guests are allowed to bring personal-sized hand sanitizer, non-aerosol containers of sunscreen that are 3.4 ounces or less, and cameras, although detachable lenses and accessories like tripods, GoPro mounts, selfie sticks, and similar items won’t be allowed.

For guests who need to bring their prescription medication with them to the festival, they must show the medical staff at the entrance gates the pharmacy-labeled container that includes the patient name, dosage, and other information. Visitors will only be allowed to bring with them enough of the prescribed medication for that day only. Over-the-counter medication must be checked out by the medical staff at the entrances as well.

Additional prohibited items at Boston Calling include coolers; weapons, fireworks, and explosives of any kind; professional video, camera, and audio recording equipment; drones; hammocks; baby strollers; Frisbees; chairs; binoculars; blankets, sheets, and towels; inflatables; umbrellas; spiked jewelry and large chains; glass containers; carts; tents or any shaded structures; and illegal or illicit substances.

Outside food and beverages are also prohibited, as are pets (except for service animals), plus personal transportation items like skateboards, scooters, and bicycles. Free bicycle parking will be available near the entrance.

Boston Calling is also a completely cashless festival, so leave the Benjamins at home. Guests are encouraged to register their wristbands online to sync a payment method, enabling them to pay with just a tap of the wrist. Lockers with charging stations will be available to rent out as well throughout the weekend.

How do I get there?

Another belonging you should leave at home: your car. There will be no parking available onsite or on the street in the surrounding area (expect strict ticketing and towing of vehicles that weekend).

Instead, attendees are encouraged to walk or take the T, with the Red Line station at Harvard Square located just a short walk from the festival’s main entrance at 65 N. Harvard St. at the Harvard Athletic Complex in Allston. Festival-goers can also take the bus, with both the 66 and 86 routes stopping at Harvard Stadium. Commuter rail riders can take the Worcester line to the Boston Landing Station, located a little more than a mile from the venue.

Fans opting to use a rideshare app can get dropped off near the main entrance at Harvard Stadium, with gates opening at 1 p.m. each day. However, at the end of each night, attendees using a rideshare app to get home should follow signs to the designated rideshare pickup lot.

Can I bring my kids?

Music lovers of all ages are welcome at Boston Calling, and children under 10 can even attend for free without a wristband. When you and the little ones are tuckered out from dancing, relax with a ride on the Ferris wheel located near the Blue Stage for epic views of the festival. Proceeds from the Ferris wheel rides will also go to benefit Music Drives Us, a nonprofit dedicated to supporting school music programs.

What’s the weather going to be like?

Boston is due for a bit of summer-like heat this week according to the Globe’s Dave Epstein, before a cold front moves in bringing “a few showers and even the rumble of thunder.” Luckily, it sounds like “it should be a fairly nice weekend” as the festival kicks off, with temperatures expected to “be more typical for this time of year.” We’ll keep you updated on the weekend’s weather as new forecasts come in.

What freebies and giveaways should I look out for?

It’s always great to score free swag or other freebies at festivals, and there’ll be plenty to check out at Boston Calling this year. Head to the House of Dunkin’ for free iced coffee, munchkins, plus additional activities and giveaways. Meanwhile, fans who have the Jersey Mike’s app on their phone can enter the Sub Above Club area, featuring free subs and a performance by a surprise guest.

Attendees who are 21 and older can check out the Miller Lite area at the festival’s Bar 75, featuring complimentary WiFi and charging stations, plus games like cornhole, pop-a-shot, and more. Additionally, the canned water company Liquid Death has a club set up where guests are invited to try a complimentary beverage, get airbrushed tattoos, and have their horoscopes read.

Are there any after parties?

On Friday night, Frank Turner & the Sleeping Souls will play an after party show at Big Night Live beginning at 10 p.m.
