Summer 2016: Free or Cheap Festivals and Concerts in Boston

Published:

Updated:

Give yourself a high five because summer is finally here, which means so is live entertainment (hallelujah). Large cities like Boston are no strangers to free festivals and musical performances around the warmer months. They serve as perfect (and perfectly affordable) summer activities. Even if you’re unfamiliar with an artist or a culture surrounding an event, expand your horizons by attending! Take it from Wayne Dyer: “You’ll seldom experience regret for anything that you’ve done. It is what you haven’t done that will torment you.”
