“…An antidote to big-name destination festivals elsewhere in the country.” - Hartford Courant
Located in a World War II-era factory complex turned contemporary art museum, the Solid Sound Festival is a unique three-day event envisioned by WILCO and presented in association with MASS MoCA. At the heart of Solid Sound is a sense of collaboration, where a band can join forces with a museum, a comedian can perform against a backdrop of boundary-pushing works of art, and festival attendees of all ages can be entertained and inspired by three days of exciting, eclectic artistic expression. Situated against the unrivaled beauty of the Berkshire Mountains, MASS MoCA and the Solid Sound Festival will provide an inspired and exhilarating weekend of creativity and community.
