With the third annual festival on the horizon, B.O.M.B. Fest is proud to announce it’s the full line up and two-day schedule HERE for the Memorial Day Weekend event (Saturday May 28th and Sunday May 29th) at the Comcast Theatre in Hartford, CT. Over two days, festival patrons will have a chance to see some of the biggest acts from across the country, including performances by Weezer, Snoop Dogg, Wiz Khalifa, Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros, Coheed And Cambria, Neon Trees, State Radio, George Clinton & Parliament/Funkadelic, The New Pornographers, Against Me!, HEALTH, Wavves and many more! See full lineup and two-day schedule below!

All proceeds from this year’s festival will got towards providing music scholarships, music enrichment and education programs, music and healing initiatives and community support and outreach. Last year’s festival raised money for The Hole in the Wall Gang Camps, Connecticut Children's Hospital, YPI Camp, and The Lyman Allyn Museum.

The father-and-son team of Frank Bombaci, Sr. and Frank Bombaci, Jr. have dedicated themselves to providing the East Coast with a premiere music festival that focuses not only on the best national talent, but also on the budding stars that will eventually follow in their footsteps. Local bands with music that ranges from alternative hip-hop to angular post punk will perform at B.O.M.B. Fest’s local stage, providing festivalgoers with a unique experience unlike any other.

In addition to national and local talent, festival guests will also experience delicious food vendors, unique craft stations, and one-of a kind art installations, all complemented by Comcast Theatre’s professional amenities — clean bathrooms, spacious parking lots and state-of-the-art sound systems.

A short trip from New York City, Boston, and Philadelphia, B.O.M.B. Fest remains the East Coast’s most readily accessible major music festival.
