The Bang on a Can Summer Music Festival has transformed MASS MoCA into a genre-bending musical utopia for innovative composers and performers for 24 of our 26 years.
Over three weeks, every corner of our galleries and outdoor spaces will come alive with performances, workshops, and seminars focused on adventurous new music — culminating in LOUD Weekend, when renowned special guests, Bang on a Can faculty, and young players perform throughout MoCA’s campus in a series of playful and heady collisions of jazz, classical, rock, and beyond.
Fueled by more than three decades of marathon concerts, Long Play Festival in Brooklyn and countless world tours and staged productions, Bang on a Can’s LOUD Weekend at MASS MoCA is a fully loaded, three-day, eclectic super-mix of creative, experimental, and unusual music.
