Radio 92.9 EarthFest is a free music festival that features both national and local acts. The concert averages 125,000 people yearly, hosts 14 bands on 3 stages, and is the largest radio station "Earth" or "Green" related event in New England.
Background
The Radio 92.9 EarthFest concert is a free music festival that is hosted yearly on the Esplanade in downtown Boston, MA. The concert was created to demonstrate how everyday individuals can reduce their environmental impact. The concert is supported by a variety of sponsors such as Whole Foods Market, Subaru, MetroPCS, and Boston Globe. These sponsors, along with the 51 other sponsors,[1] set up booths and offer free items to promote their products and demonstrate to concert attendees how their products will aid both the individual, and the environment as a whole. The Radio 92.9 EarthFest concert will celebrate its 23rd event on Saturday May 21, 2016.[2] Along with the main outdoor stage on the Hatch Shell, EarthFest offers a smaller stage in an area known as Kid's Planet, which is set up for families and a younger audience. Notable performers in years past have been KT Tunstall, The Fray, Los Lonely Boys, and Shawn Mullins. Each year the concert will host 14 bands that range from locally to nationally known. Most recently, in 2012, the Earthfest Audience was estimated to be over 200,000 people by state police.
